Chicago-Latrobe 44927 Cobalt Drill Bit
The Chicago-Latrobe 44927 is a jobber length drill bit made from cobalt steel with a TiAlN coating for extended wear resistance. It features a 135 degree split point designed for self-centering and reduced thrust in hard materials.
Suited for machining hard metals
This bit suits machinists drilling stainless steel, titanium and other tough alloys where the 135 degree geometry and cobalt substrate resist heat and work hardening. It is not for buyers who need coolant-through capability or a different point angle for specialised applications.
27/64 inch fractional diameter
The single specification that decides fit is the 27/64 inch drill bit size, which equals a .4219 decimal equivalent and requires a matching chuck capacity and hole requirement.

Questions about this item
How does the 135-degree split point affect the bit's tendency to wander on hard steel?
The 135-degree split point is designed to self-center and reduce walking on hard materials, allowing the bit to start cutting immediately without a center punch.
Does the cobalt construction and TiAlN coating run cooler during extended drilling in stainless steel?
Cobalt steel retains hardness at higher temperatures than standard HSS, and the TiAlN coating further reduces friction and heat buildup during sustained high-speed drilling.
Will the 27/64 inch shank fit my 1/2 inch drill chuck without a reducer?
The 27/64 inch decimal equivalent is 0.4219 inches, which is smaller than a 1/2 inch chuck capacity, so it will fit directly without a reducer sleeve.
