Jobber Length Drill Bit #25
The Chicago-Latrobe 41695 is a jobber length drill bit sized at #25 with a decimal equivalent of .1495 inches. It features a 135 degree split point design manufactured from high speed steel with a TiN coating. This accessory is built for general purpose drilling tasks in a workshop or job site environment.
Suited for metalworkers needing a self-centering
The split point geometry reduces walking on hard materials such as steel and alloy, making it a practical choice for machinists and maintenance technicians. Buyers who require coolant-through capability or a different point angle for specialised applications should look at other options.
Holds centre under sustained drilling pressure
The 135 degree split point maintains accurate hole placement during extended drilling cycles without the need for a centre punch. High speed steel construction with TiN coating resists heat buildup and wear when used continuously in production or repair work.

Questions about this item
What drill chuck size do I need to hold the #25 shank on this bit?
A standard 3-jaw chuck that closes down to 0.1495 inch will grip the #25 shank securely.
Can I run this TiN-coated bit in the same 135° split-point geometry as my older uncoated HSS bits?
Yes, the 135° split-point geometry is identical; the TiN coating only adds wear resistance.
How do I confirm the 135° split point is cutting correctly after I start drilling?
The bit should self-centre without a centre punch and produce short, curled chips in steel.
