Application fit
The Cle-Line C22724 is a 17/64 inch jobber drill bit built for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic. It suits maintenance technicians, fabricators and DIY users who need a reliable fractional-size bit for everyday workshop tasks.
Capacity and headroom
The 118-degree conventional point starts cleanly in mild steel, aluminium and softer alloys while the high-speed steel body with black oxide finish resists wear during repetitive holes. The .2656 decimal equivalent gives precise fractional sizing for standard tap and clearance charts, though the non-coolant design limits sustained deep-hole work in harder materials.
Upgrade context
This bit replaces worn or lost fractional jobbers in existing sets and upgrades from lower-grade carbon steel bits that dull quickly in steel. The jump is worth it when a shop needs consistent hole quality across mixed materials without stepping up to cobalt or carbide tooling for occasional heavy use.

Questions about this item
Will the 118° point angle on this 17/64 in bit work well in my older drill press?
The 118° conventional point is standard for general-purpose drilling and engages reliably in older drill presses without requiring high feed pressure.
How can I confirm the bit is the correct 17/64 in size before using it?
The decimal equivalent 0.2656 is marked on the shank, allowing quick verification against your hole specification or drill gauge.
Does the package include multiple bits or a storage case?
The item is sold as a single 17/64 in jobber-length drill bit; no case or additional bits are included.
