13/32 in split-point drill bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 42626 drill bit is a high-speed steel jobber-length tool with a 135 degree split point and TiAlN coating. It is built for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic where a precise start and reduced walking are required. The fractional 13/32 inch size equals a 0.4063 decimal equivalent for exact hole tolerances.
For machinists and maintenance teams needing
The bit suits users who need one specific 13/32 inch diameter for tapping or clearance holes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is not for buyers who need a full set of incremental sizes, a cobalt alloy for hardened steel, coolant-through capability for deep holes or a reduced-shank version for smaller chucks.
135 degree split point with TiAlN coating
The 135 degree split point centres the bit without a centre punch and lowers thrust, while the TiAlN layer resists heat and wear in steel and stainless steel. This combination decides whether the bit matches the material hardness and hole accuracy the job demands.

Questions about this item
Will the 13/32 in shank fit a standard 1/2 in drill chuck?
Yes, the 13/32 in diameter is smaller than 1/2 in, so it fits a standard 1/2 in drill chuck.
What is the correct way to start the 135° split point without the bit walking?
Apply steady pressure and let the split point self-centre; do not use a centre punch, which can damage the tip.
When should the TiAlN-coated high-speed steel bit be replaced?
Replace it when the split point no longer self-centres or the cutting edges stay dull after proper sharpening.
