Chicago-Latrobe 44010 118 Degree Jobber Drill 5/32 in

Chicago-Latrobe 44010 Jobber Drill

The Chicago-Latrobe 44010 is a general-purpose jobber length drill bit sized at 5/32 inch. It is intended for machinists and maintenance technicians who need a reliable high-speed steel cutting tool for everyday drilling tasks. The black oxide finish helps reduce friction and resist corrosion during use.

118 Degree Point Under Sustained Use

The conventional 118 degree point angle provides consistent centering and chip evacuation across a range of common materials. Because the bit is non-coolant through with zero coolant holes, heat management relies on the black oxide coating and proper feed rates rather than internal fluid delivery. Operators should allow cooling intervals during deep or repetitive drilling to maintain edge integrity.

Compatibility Checks Before Ordering

Verify that your drill chuck accommodates a 5/32 inch shank and that your machine delivers suitable speed and torque for high-speed steel tooling. Confirm the fractional inch sizing matches your project specifications since the decimal equivalent is 0.1563. Ensure the workpiece material is appropriate for a standard 118 degree point without specialised geometry requirements.
