13/16in Cobalt Split Point Stub Drill Bit
This 13/16in cobalt drill bit meets Aerospace Standard 907 for screw machine use. The short, rugged construction suits portable or machine drilling in iron and steel families. A 135 degree split point is self-centering and reduces thrust during operation. It is popular in automotive and construction industries where spindle clearance is limited.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
Machinists and technicians drilling shallow holes in ferrous alloys with restricted spindle access will benefit from the stub length and split point geometry. Buyers who need deeper hole capacity or a standard 118 degree point for general-purpose drilling in softer materials should consider a different bit style.
135 degree split point on 13/16in diameter
The 135 degree split point centers the cut without a pilot hole and lowers feed pressure on tough alloys. This geometry is the primary factor that determines whether the bit matches the material hardness and machine rigidity of the application.

Questions about this item
Will the 13/16in cobalt stub bit fit the chuck on my older 1/2in drill press?
The 13/16in diameter exceeds a 1/2in chuck capacity, so it will not fit; you need a larger chuck or a bit with a reduced shank.
How can I confirm the 135 degree split point is self-centering when I start a hole?
The 135 degree split point centres itself on contact and requires less thrust, so the bit will not walk on steel or iron surfaces.
Does the package include any cutting fluid or a case for the 13/16in stub drill?
The supplier description lists only the cobalt stub drill bit manufactured to Aerospace Standard 907; no fluid or case is mentioned.
