Professional Drilling Tool

The Westward 2UFC1 is a jobber length drill bit manufactured from high speed steel with a black oxide finish. It is engineered for general purpose drilling across a range of materials including metal, wood and plastic. This tool suits maintenance technicians, metalworkers and serious DIY users who need a reliable fractional size bit for everyday workshop tasks.

Heat Resistance and Cutting Action

High speed steel construction allows the bit to retain hardness at elevated temperatures generated during normal drilling operations. The black oxide surface treatment reduces friction and helps prevent chip welding on the cutting edges. The conventional 118 degree point angle provides effective centring and steady material removal without excessive force or vibration.

Upgrading from Worn or Undersized Bits

This bit replaces dull, damaged or smaller diameter drills when a precise 7/16 inch hole is required. The fractional sizing and decimal equivalent of .4375 ensure compatibility with standard tap and clearance charts. The jump is worth it when an existing bit no longer cuts cleanly or when a project demands this specific diameter for bolt patterns or fastener pilot holes.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 7/16" HSS jobber drill bit in a drill chuck, and what step is often missed?

Open the chuck fully, insert the bit shank until it seats, then tighten securely; the step often missed is verifying the bit runs true before drilling.

What maintenance or replacement will the 118-degree conventional point need later?

The high-speed steel cutting edges dull with use; resharpen to the original 118-degree angle or replace the bit when holes become oversized or rough.

What limit appears first on the black-oxide finish during sustained drilling?

The black-oxide coating wears off at the cutting lips, reducing lubricity and increasing heat buildup in the 0.4375-inch diameter bit.
