Chicago-Latrobe 49736 taper length drill bit 9/16 in HSS black oxide

9/16 in Taper Length Drill Bit

This Chicago-Latrobe 49736 drill bit is manufactured from high speed steel with a black oxide finish. It is designed for general purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic where a longer flute length is required. The 118 degree radial point provides accurate starting and reduces walking on hard surfaces. Suitable for maintenance, fabrication and automotive repair tasks.

118 Degree Radial Point Geometry

The 118 degree point angle with radial grind determines how the bit engages the workpiece and clears chips in deep holes. This geometry favours centering accuracy and works well in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Buyers who need a split point for harder alloys or a different angle for specialised applications should verify the specification before purchase.
