Cle-Line C23838 135 Degree Drill Bit
This Cle-Line C23838 drill bit is built for mechanics and metalworkers who need a 135-degree split point for accurate starts in steel and other hard materials. The heavy-duty mechanics length provides extra reach compared to standard jobber drills. It is designed for professional maintenance and repair tasks.
High Speed Steel Construction and Finish
The bit is made from high speed steel with a black and gold surface finish that resists wear and reduces friction during drilling. The 135-degree point angle minimises walking and lowers the thrust required, which helps keep the tool and workpiece cooler during extended use in the shop.
Fractional Sizing and Immediate Availability
Marked at 3/16 inch and 0.1875 decimal equivalent, the bit fits fractional-inch tooling systems without conversion. Orders of $75 or more ship free directly from Zoro, so workshops can restock this size alongside other accessories in a single delivery. No bundled software or accessories are included.

Questions about this item
How do I install the C23838 3/16 in mechanics length drill bit and what step is often missed?
Insert the 0.1875 in shank fully into the chuck and tighten securely; the step often missed is verifying the 135 degree split point is centred before drilling.
What maintenance or replacement will the C23838 high speed steel drill bit need later?
Resharpen the 135 degree point when cutting edges dull; replace the bit once the high speed steel flutes wear down or the black and gold finish shows excessive heat discoloration.
What limit appears first on the C23838 drill bit during sustained drilling?
Heat buildup in the high speed steel body reduces hardness at the 135 degree point, causing faster edge wear before the 0.1875 in shank or flute geometry becomes the limiting factor.
