Chicago-Latrobe 44233 33/64 in Jobber Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 44233 drill bit is a general-purpose jobber length tool made from High Speed Steel. It suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need a fractional-inch bit for standard drilling tasks in metal, wood or plastic.
118° Conventional Point Angle
The 118 degree point angle with a conventional point design is the critical specification that determines suitability. This geometry provides reliable centring and chip evacuation for general-purpose work but is not optimised for hard or abrasive materials.
Bright Uncoated Finish Installation
The bright uncoated finish requires lubrication to prevent overheating and premature wear during use. Common issues include chip packing in deep holes because the bit lacks coolant-through holes, and walking on hard surfaces without a centre punch.
