Drill America DMOD43 Solid Carbide Jobber Bit
The Drill America DMOD43 is a solid carbide jobber drill bit manufactured in size #43 with an overall length of 2 inches. It is intended for machinists and fabricators who need to maintain drilling accuracy in abrasive or high temperature applications. The uncoated bright finish and 118 degree conventional point suit general purpose cutting across a range of non ferrous and composite materials.
Uncoated Bright Finish and Round Shank
The bright finish provides no additional coating layer, which keeps the cutting geometry sharp for materials such as cast iron, copper, plastics and plexiglass. A round shank fits standard drill chucks and collets without requiring a specialised holder. The 1 inch flute length supports chip evacuation in the listed materials while the solid carbide construction resists wear at elevated temperatures.
Solid Carbide Build and California Proposition 65
Solid carbide construction delivers rigidity that reduces deflection when drilling abrasive alloys, high silicon aluminium and bronze. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for exposure to chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Users should follow appropriate safety practices and ventilation when machining the noted materials.

Questions about this item
Will the carbide tip need sharpening or replacement after repeated use?
The solid carbide construction maintains its edge longer than high-speed steel, but the 118-degree conventional point can be resharpened when dull.
What limits continuous drilling in abrasive alloys?
Heat buildup in the workpiece is the first limit; the uncoated bright finish offers no thermal barrier, so cutting speed must be reduced.
Does the bit generate excess heat or vibration during all-day CNC runs?
Carbide runs hotter than coated tools, and the round shank transmits more vibration, so rigid toolholding and coolant are recommended.
