Solid Carbide Jobber Bit 17/64

This solid carbide drill bit targets machinists and maintenance technicians who need consistent hole size in abrasive or high-temperature materials. The uncoated bright finish and 118-degree conventional point suit general-purpose drilling where coating buildup must be avoided.

Round Shank 3.5" Length Construction

A 3.5-inch overall length with a 2-1/8-inch flute length provides reach for standard jobber-depth holes while the round shank fits common three-jaw chucks without adapters. Solid carbide construction resists wear in cast iron, high-silicon aluminium, copper alloys, bronze, hard rubber and plexiglass.

118-Degree Point Angle Application

The 118-degree point angle determines whether this bit matches the material and rigidity of your setup; it is optimised for the listed abrasive and non-ferrous alloys rather than deep-hole or high-feed steel drilling. California Proposition 65 warnings apply.

Questions about this item

What does the 118-degree point angle mean for drilling accuracy?

The 118-degree conventional point provides a standard cutting geometry that centres the bit quickly and keeps holes straight in materials such as cast iron, bronze and hard rubber.

What shank size must my drill chuck accept for this 17/64" bit?

The round shank matches the 17/64-inch drill diameter, so a chuck that opens to at least that size will hold the bit securely.

How do I avoid breaking the solid carbide bit when starting a hole?

Use a centre punch or pilot hole to prevent the 118-degree point from walking, then apply steady pressure at the correct speed for the material.
