Drill Bit for Heavy-Duty Drilling
This Chicago-Latrobe 43630 jobber-length drill bit is made from high-speed steel with a TiCN coating. It has a 15/32 inch diameter and a decimal equivalent of .4688. The split-point tip is ground to 135 degrees for self-centering starts.
Suited for General Metalwork.
The bit suits mechanics and fabricators drilling steel, cast iron and similar materials where a coated high-speed steel cutter performs well. It lacks coolant-through holes, so buyers who need internal coolant delivery for deep holes or high-volume production should look at something else.
135 Degree Split Point Determines Start Accuracy
The 135 degree split-point geometry is the specification that decides fit for the task. It reduces walk on flat surfaces and centres the bit without a centre punch. If the job calls for a different point angle or a non-split tip, this drill bit will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item
What is the point angle of the 15/32 in drill bit?
The 15/32 in drill bit has a 135 degree split point that reduces walking and improves centring on hard materials.
What shank diameter does the 15/32 in jobber bit require in a chuck?
The bit has a straight 15/32 in shank so the chuck must open to at least .4688 in to grip it securely.
How is the TiCN-coated high-speed steel bit installed in a drill press?
Insert the 15/32 in shank fully into the chuck, tighten all three jaws evenly, and verify the bit runs true before drilling.
