Cle-Line 18454 7/16" Jobber Drill Bit
This Cle-Line 18454 drill bit is a jobber-length tool made from high-speed steel with a black and gold finish. It features a 135-degree split-point tip designed for accurate starting and reduced walking. The fractional size is 7/16 inch with a decimal equivalent of .4375. It suits general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and plastic where a heavy-duty parabolic flute helps with chip evacuation.
Users and applications
This bit suits mechanics, fabricators, and maintenance staff who need a durable 7/16 inch drill for handheld or press work in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is not for buyers who need coolant-through capability, a different point angle, or a bit size outside the 7/16 inch specification.
Deciding specification
The 135-degree split-point geometry is the single specification that determines suitability; it provides self-centring action and faster penetration in hard materials compared to standard points. If the application requires a different point style or angle, this bit will not meet the requirement.

- 135° split point starts holes without wandering

Questions about this item
What does the 135-degree point angle mean for everyday drilling?
The 135-degree split point reduces walking and starts the hole faster, so less pressure is needed when drilling metal or hard wood.
How does the jobber length affect reach and rigidity?
Jobber length gives a standard flute and overall length for the 7/16 inch size, balancing reach with enough stiffness for general-purpose drilling.
What chuck size is required to hold the 7/16 inch shank?
A chuck with a maximum capacity of at least 7/16 inch is required to grip the straight round shank securely.
