Chicago-Latrobe 57714 Jobber Set
This Chicago-Latrobe 57714 set contains 29 jobber-length drill bits designed for general-purpose drilling tasks. The bits feature a 118-degree point angle suitable for a wide range of materials. They are manufactured from high-speed steel with a black oxide finish. This kit targets professionals and DIY users needing a comprehensive range of standard sizes in one package.
Upgrading from worn or incomplete sets
This set replaces dull, damaged, or missing bits that cause wandering or slow penetration. The jump is worth it when your current index lacks the specific diameters required for a job or when the existing cutting edges are too worn to sharpen effectively. A full 29-piece index ensures the correct size is immediately available. It restores drilling efficiency across common metal, wood, and plastic applications.
Easy organisation and use
The bits are organised in a indexed case for quick identification and selection. Installation into a drill chuck is standard for any jobber-length shank. What usually goes wrong is selecting a bit diameter too large for the chuck capacity or applying excessive feed pressure that damages the 118-degree point. Proper lubrication and speed selection prevent premature wear on the high-speed steel cutting edges.

Questions about this item
What chuck size do I need for the 29 drill bits in this set?
Each bit has a straight shank that fits any standard three-jaw chuck opening to the bit's diameter; the largest bit in the 29-piece range will require a chuck capacity at least that large.
How do I install a bit from the 57714 set without it slipping?
Open the chuck wide, insert the bit until the flutes clear the jaws, then tighten firmly by hand or key — the common error is leaving the shank too shallow so the jaws grip only the tip.
When should I replace a bit from this 118-degree high-speed steel set?
Replace a bit when the cutting lips are chipped, the point angle has worn past 118 degrees, or the black-oxide finish has worn off the flutes, causing heat buildup and wandering holes.
