Drill Bit Size #36 for Precise Holes
This Chicago-Latrobe 41706 jobber length drill bit is sized at #36 with a decimal equivalent of .1065 inches. It is made from high speed steel with a TiN coating for durability. The 135 degree split point design helps start holes accurately without wandering. It suits professionals and DIY users needing a specific small diameter.
135 Degree Split Point Limits Walking
The 135 degree split point geometry reduces the force needed to begin drilling and limits bit walking on contact. This point angle is effective across common materials like steel, aluminium and plastic. The jobber length provides standard reach for general purpose drilling. The bit has no coolant holes, so it relies on external lubrication or peck drilling for deeper holes.
High Speed Steel Handles Routine Drilling
High speed steel with TiN coating handles routine drilling in mild steel, non-ferrous metals and plastics with good wear resistance. The coating adds hardness and reduces friction compared to uncoated bits. The bit will dull faster in hardened steels, stainless alloys or abrasive composites. Users needing extended life in those materials should consider cobalt or carbide alternatives.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the #36 drill bit or a different size for my project?
Choose the #36 bit when you need a 0.1065 inch diameter hole; select another wire-gauge size if your application requires a different diameter.
What does the 135 degree point angle do when the bit is in a drill?
The 135 degree split point centres itself on contact and reduces walking on hard materials such as stainless steel.
How does the high-speed steel TiN coating affect drilling performance?
The TiN coating on the high-speed steel body increases surface hardness and heat resistance, extending bit life in repetitive drilling.
