Westward 5VPA7 Carbide Jobber Drill Bit
This Westward 5VPA7 jobber drill bit is made from carbide with a conventional 118-degree point. It measures 9/32 inch, with a decimal equivalent of .2813, and has a bright uncoated finish. The tool is designed for general-purpose drilling tasks where a standard jobber length is required.
Suited to machinists needing a single
This bit suits machinists or maintenance technicians who need a 9/32-inch carbide drill for occasional use. It is not for buyers who want a coated bit for longer life in abrasive materials. It is not for users who require a coolant-through design for deep-hole drilling. It is not for anyone needing a set of multiple sizes.
9/32-inch carbide bit
The single specification that decides fit is the 9/32-inch diameter combined with the 118-degree conventional point angle on a carbide substrate. This combination determines the hole size and the material range the bit can handle. Verify that your application matches this exact size and point geometry before ordering.

Questions about this item
What does the 118 degree point angle mean for drilling performance?
The 118 degree conventional point provides a standard cutting geometry suitable for general purpose drilling in various materials with good centering characteristics.
How does the carbide construction affect the drill bit's capabilities compared to high speed steel?
Carbide offers higher hardness and heat resistance than high speed steel, allowing faster cutting speeds and longer tool life in abrasive or hard materials, though it is more brittle.
What shank size and type does this jobber length bit use for chuck compatibility?
This fractional inch jobber length drill bit has a straight shank matching its 9/32 inch diameter, designed for standard three jaw drill chucks.
