Chicago-Latrobe 42627 Drill Bit
The Chicago-Latrobe 42627 is a jobber length drill bit with a 27/64 inch diameter and a 135 degree split point. It is manufactured from high speed steel with a TiAlN coating. This accessory suits workshops needing a durable bit for general-purpose drilling tasks.
Suited for steel and alloy work.
The split point design helps the bit start accurately without walking on metal surfaces. The TiAlN coating adds wear resistance during high-speed drilling. Builders who require internal coolant delivery through the tool should look at a different style because this bit has zero coolant holes.
27/64 inch fractional size decides fit
The fractional diameter of 27/64 inch, with a decimal equivalent of .4219, is the primary specification that determines whether this bit matches the required hole size. Verify the exact diameter against your project drawings before purchase.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 27/64 inch bit or a different fractional size for my application?

How does the 135 degree split point perform when drilling into steel?
The 135 degree split point centres itself on contact and cuts efficiently through high speed steel workpieces without the need for a centre punch.
What shank interface does the 42627 use and what does it limit?
The straight shank fits standard three jaw drill chucks and limits use to machines that accept a .4219 inch shank diameter.
