Chicago-Latrobe 70225 Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 70225 drill bit is a jobber-length cutting tool made from high-speed steel with a TiN coating. It features a conventional 118-degree point angle and a fractional size of 25/64 inch. The decimal equivalent is .3906 inches. It is designed for general-purpose drilling tasks in a workshop or automotive setting.
Suited for general purpose drilling
This bit suits users drilling metal, wood, or plastic where a standard 118-degree point performs well. The TiN coating helps extend tool life in abrasive materials. Buyers needing coolant-through capability or a split-point design for self-centering should look elsewhere. It is also not intended for specialised materials requiring carbide or cobalt construction.
Fits standard drill chucks
The straight shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks found on most handheld and stationary drills. No special holders or coolant systems are required for operation. The jobber length provides a standard reach for typical hole depths. The high-speed steel construction allows resharpening to maintain cutting performance over time.

Questions about this item
Do I need a drill chuck that can hold a 25/64 inch shank?
Yes — the bit has a 25/64 inch diameter, so your drill chuck must open at least that wide to grip it securely.
Will this bit fit in the same jobber-length drill index I use for my older fractional bits?
It is a standard jobber-length bit in a 25/64 inch fractional size, so it occupies the same slot as any other jobber bit of that diameter.
How can I confirm the point angle is correct after I receive it?
The bit is ground to a 118 Degree conventional point; you can verify the angle with a drill-point gauge or by comparing it to a known 118 Degree reference bit.
