Solid Carbide Jobber Drill Bit

The Drill America DMOD5/16 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit designed for precise hole-making in abrasive and high-temperature applications. It suits machinists and fabricators who work with cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, high-silicon aluminium, copper, plastics, bronze, hard rubber or plexiglass. The uncoated bright finish and 118-degree conventional point support consistent cutting performance. This bit is not for users who need coated tooling for extended wear life in ferrous metals.

Setup Compatibility Checks

Verify that your drill chuck or collet accepts a round shank matching the bit diameter before ordering. Confirm the machine spindle can deliver the rigidity and speed range recommended for solid carbide tooling to avoid breakage. Ensure the workpiece material matches the listed application groups such as cast iron or non-ferrous alloys. This bit is not for handheld drilling in unsecured workpieces or machines lacking sufficient run-out control.

Accessory And Software Impact

The product ships as a single drill bit in a pack of one with no additional accessories, coatings or software included. The uncoated bright finish means no surface treatment alters chip evacuation or heat resistance beyond the base carbide substrate. No driver installation or calibration procedure is required for operation. This bit is not for buyers expecting a coated variant or a multi-piece set for assorted diameters.

Questions about this item

Does the Drill America DMOD5/16 bit come alone or with a case?

The supplier title lists this DMOD5/16 solid-carbide jobber drill as a pack of one, so the box contains only the single 5/16-inch bit with its 118-degree conventional point and round shank.

When would I choose this 5/16-inch 4-inch length over another size?

Select this 5/16-inch diameter and 4-inch overall length when the hole size and reach match the job; the solid-carbide body and bright finish are built for abrasive materials such as cast iron, high-silicon aluminium, copper, bronze, hard rubber and plexiglass.

How does the 118-degree point behave in a hand-held drill versus a press?

The 118-degree conventional point is a general-purpose geometry that centres easily in a drill press; in a hand-held drill it still starts cleanly but requires steadier pressure to avoid walking on hard materials.
