Chicago-Latrobe 57718 26-piece drill set
The Chicago-Latrobe 57718 set supplies 26 jobber length drill bits made from high speed steel with a black oxide finish. Each bit features a 118-degree point angle suited for general purpose drilling in metal, wood and plastic. The assortment covers a range of diameters for common workshop tasks.
Users needing a ready index of standard sizes
Machinists, maintenance technicians and DIY builders who want a single case covering frequent drilling diameters will find this set practical. Buyers who require cobalt alloy bits for hardened steel or specialized step and spade bits should look at other configurations.
118-degree point angle for general purpose use
The 118-degree point angle determines how the bit starts and cuts in common materials. It provides reliable centering without a pilot hole for most ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood and plastic. A different point angle would be required for hard or abrasive materials.

Questions about this item
Will these 118-degree jobber bits work in my older drill press chuck?
The set uses standard jobber-length shanks that fit any three-jaw chuck accepting the corresponding diameters, so your existing drill press will hold them without an adapter.
How can I verify the 118-degree point angle is cutting correctly after I start drilling?
A properly ground 118-degree point produces a centered, round hole with minimal wander and consistent chip formation in steel; if the bit walks or chatters, the angle may need regrinding.
Does the 26-piece set include a case, or do I need to buy storage separately?
The supplier description lists only the 26 black-oxide high-speed steel bits; no case or index is mentioned, so plan to purchase a drill index or case separately.
