Chicago-Latrobe 44176 Jobber Drill Bit
The Chicago-Latrobe 44176 is a jobber length drill bit manufactured from high speed steel with a black oxide finish. It features a conventional 118 degree point angle and a decimal equivalent of .2570 inches. This general purpose tool is designed for standard drilling tasks in a workshop or automotive setting.
Fits standard drill chucks for general use
The bit installs directly into a standard drill chuck without requiring a specialised holder or coolant-through spindle. Its non-coolant design with zero coolant holes simplifies the setup for handheld or press drilling. This configuration frees the operator from managing external coolant lines during typical operations.
Sustained cutting with black oxide protection
Under sustained load the black oxide surface treatment helps retain lubricity and reduces chip welding on the cutting edges. The 118 degree conventional point maintains consistent centring without walking during extended drilling cycles. High speed steel construction resists softening at the temperatures reached in continuous jobber length applications.

Questions about this item
How long does the 118 degree point stay sharp when drilling steel?
The 118 degree conventional point is ground from high speed steel with a black oxide finish that resists wear and reduces friction during extended drilling in metal.
Does the bit get too hot to touch during continuous use?
Black oxide coating helps dissipate heat while the high speed steel construction maintains hardness at elevated temperatures typical of jobber length drilling.
What shank size fits my drill chuck for this F letter bit?
The jobber length drill bit has a straight shank matching its .2570 inch diameter, designed to fit standard three jaw drill chucks without adapters.
