Chicago-Latrobe 44095 #25 Jobber Drill Bit
This Chicago-Latrobe 44095 #25 jobber drill bit is a general-purpose cutting tool for metalworking tasks. It is designed for machinists and technicians who need a standard-length bit for drilling holes in various materials. The high-speed steel construction provides durability for routine workshop use. It suits professionals creating precise holes with a conventional point geometry.
High-Speed Steel Construction and Black Oxide Finish
The HAWA high-speed steel body resists wear during normal drilling operations. A black oxide finish helps reduce friction and improves chip flow without coolant. The conventional 118-degree point angle centres the bit quickly on contact. This design manages heat effectively during standard drilling cycles in steel and iron.
#25 Wire Gauge Size with 0.1495-Inch Decimal
The single specification that determines fit is the #25 wire gauge size, which equals a 0.1495-inch decimal diameter. This exact diameter decides whether the bit matches the required hole size for tapping or clearance. Buyers needing a different wire gauge or fractional diameter cannot use this specific bit. Verify the 0.1495-inch requirement before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How do I install the #25 jobber drill bit in my drill chuck, and what step do people often miss?
Open the chuck fully, insert the 0.1495 inch shank, and tighten securely; the step many miss is verifying the bit runs true before drilling.
What maintenance or replacement will the 118 degree high speed steel bit need over time?
The black oxide finish resists corrosion, but the cutting edges will dull with use and require resharpening or replacement when hole quality drops.
At what point does the conventional point design limit performance during sustained drilling?
Without coolant holes, heat builds up quickly in deep holes, so the bit loses hardness first when drilling continuously without cutting fluid.
