Chicago-Latrobe #29 Jobber Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe drill bit is a general-purpose cutting tool sized to #29 with a decimal equivalent of 0.1360 inches. It is made from high-speed steel with a black oxide finish for wear resistance. The conventional 118-degree point handles routine drilling in metal, wood and plastic.
Suits maintenance and light fabrication
Mechanics and hobbyists drilling pilot or clearance holes in softer metals will find the geometry predictable and the price practical. Buyers who need coolant-fed holes or a split-point tip for reduced walking on hard alloys should look elsewhere.
118-degree conventional point angle
The 118-degree conventional point determines how the bit starts and cuts without a pilot hole. It is the single specification that decides whether this bit matches the material and accuracy you require.
