Cleveland Jobber Drill 1/2" HSS 118° Split Point
This Cleveland jobber drill bit is a high-speed steel accessory designed for general-purpose drilling tasks. It features a fractional 1/2 inch size with a decimal equivalent of .5000 and a bright, uncoated finish. The 118 degree split point promotes accurate starts and reduces walking on the workpiece. It suits professionals and DIY users needing reliable fractional drilling capability.
Thermals noise and power draw in normal use
The uncoated high-speed steel construction dissipates heat naturally during operation without specialised cooling features. Noise and vibration levels depend on the host drill motor and the material being drilled rather than the bit itself. Power draw is determined entirely by the driving tool and the load applied by the operator. No coolant-through capability is present for thermal management.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1/2" split-point drill bit in my drill chuck without it slipping?
Open the chuck fully, insert the bright-finish shank straight and deep until it seats, then tighten each jaw evenly; the 118-degree split point centres itself but only if the bit runs true from the start.
When will the high-speed steel cutting edges need resharpening or replacement?
Resharpen the 118-degree split point on a bench grinder or drill doctor once the lips show visible wear or the bit wanders in .5000-inch holes; HSS can be reground several times before the jobber length becomes too short for safe use.
