Suited for metalworkers needing a 3/8 inch bit

Questions about this item

Does the Chicago-Latrobe 45624 3/8-inch drill bit come as a single piece or in a set, and is a drill chuck included?

The product is supplied as one individual 3/8-inch jobber length drill bit. A drill chuck or any other accessory is not included and must be purchased separately if required.

What does the 135-degree split point on the 45624 bit mean for starting holes in steel?

The 135-degree split point is designed to self-centre on contact, reducing walk and allowing faster penetration in hard materials such as steel without the need for a centre punch.

How does the black oxide finish on the high-speed steel 45624 bit affect its performance in a hand drill?

The black oxide finish helps retain cutting lubricant and reduces chip welding, which extends cutting life and improves chip flow when drilling steel with a portable hand drill.
