Precision drilling tool
The Chicago-Latrobe 47357 is a jobber-length drill bit manufactured from high-speed steel for general-purpose metalworking. Its 11.20 mm diameter suits fabricators, maintenance technicians and automotive mechanics who require accurate holes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
Black oxide surface treatment
The black oxide finish reduces friction and resists corrosion during repetitive drilling cycles. This coating helps the bit run cooler and evacuate chips more efficiently, extending usable life without the need for additional lubricants or specialised coolant systems.
Conventional 118-degree point geometry
The 118-degree conventional point centres quickly on flat surfaces and requires no pilot hole for most workshop tasks. A decimal equivalent of .4409 inch allows easy cross-reference with imperial drawings, while the straight shank fits standard three-jaw chucks on bench presses and handheld drills alike.

Questions about this item
How often will the 118-degree point need resharpening when drilling steel?
Resharpen when the cutting edges dull; the 118-degree geometry can be restored on a bench grinder or drill sharpener multiple times before the bit becomes too short.
What stops the 11.20 mm HSS bit from cutting deeper in a continuous job?
Flute clogging and heat buildup limit sustained drilling; clear chips frequently and use cutting fluid to delay the limit.
Does the black-oxide 47357 bit run hotter than a coated bit during all-day use?
Black oxide holds more heat than premium coatings, so the shank warms faster; pause occasionally and apply lubricant to manage temperature.
