15/32" Jobber Drill for General Drilling
The Chicago-Latrobe 46230 is a jobber-length drill bit made from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish. Its 118-degree conventional point suits general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic. The fractional 15/32 inch size equals 0.4688 inch decimal equivalent. It is designed for use in portable or stationary drills where a standard jobber length is required.
Sustained Cutting Behaviour
Under continuous load the uncoated HSS body relies on cutting fluid and proper speed to manage heat buildup. The 118-degree point distributes cutting forces evenly but will dull faster than split-point or coated alternatives in abrasive materials. Chip evacuation depends on the standard flutes without coolant-through capability, so deep holes require frequent pecking to prevent packing and overheating. The bright finish offers no thermal barrier for extended high-speed runs.

Questions about this item
How hot does the 15/32 inch HSS drill bit get during continuous pneumatic drilling?
High-speed steel handles heat well; the 118-degree conventional point reduces friction, but cutting fluid is recommended for extended use to prevent overheating.
What pneumatic tool is required to drive the 46230 jobber drill bit?
A pneumatic drill with a chuck that accepts a 15/32 inch straight shank is needed; the bright uncoated HSS bit fits standard industrial chucks.
