Chicago-Latrobe 57711 Drill Bit Set
This 13-piece set delivers high-speed steel jobber-length bits with a 118-degree point angle. The black oxide finish adds wear resistance for general-purpose drilling tasks. It suits mechanics and maintenance crews who need a ready range of common sizes in one case.
Installation and common issues
Bits install directly into any standard drill chuck without adapters. The 118-degree point starts cleanly on metal, wood and plastic, but can wander on very hard steel unless a centre punch is used first. Black oxide holds cutting fluid well; running dry causes premature dulling and excess heat.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Ideal for workshops that want a single, organised kit for everyday ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Not suited for production runs that demand cobalt or carbide tool life, nor for buyers who need specialised split-point or reduced-shank geometries.
