Chicago-Latrobe 46489 Cobalt Jobber Drill
The Chicago-Latrobe 46489 is a 10.2 mm cobalt jobber drill bit built for heavy-duty drilling tasks. Its 135-degree split point design promotes accurate starting and reduces walking on hard materials. The straw-bronze finish identifies the cobalt construction. This accessory fits standard drill chucks for professional and industrial use.
Suited for metalworkers drilling tough alloys
This bit suits machinists and maintenance crews who need reliable performance in stainless steel or high-strength steels. The cobalt material resists heat and wear during extended drilling cycles. Buyers who need coolant-through capability for deep-hole drilling should look at a different design. Users requiring a coated bit for non-ferrous metals may prefer an alternative style.
135-degree split point geometry
The 135-degree split point is the specification that determines suitability for hard-metal applications. It centres the bit without a centre punch and lowers thrust requirements. The 10.2 mm diameter and .4016 decimal equivalent define the hole size produced. No coolant holes are present, so external lubrication must be supplied by the operator.

Questions about this item
What size drill chuck do I need for the 10.2 mm shank?
A chuck that opens to at least 10.2 mm will hold the bit securely; most 13 mm (1/2 inch) capacity chucks are suitable.
Will the 135 degree split point work in a standard variable-speed drill?
Yes, the 135 degree split point is designed for general-purpose drilling and performs well in standard variable-speed drills.
How can I confirm the bit is cutting correctly after I start drilling?
The split point should self-centre without a centre punch, and you should see clean, consistent chips rather than burning or wandering.
