Westward 5TVY5 11/64 inch Carbide Drill Bit 118 Degree Jobber Length

Precise 11/64 inch carbide drill bit

This Westward drill bit is made for machinists and fabricators who need a rigid, wear-resistant tool for producing accurate holes in hardened alloys and abrasive materials. The solid carbide construction resists deflection and holds its edge far longer than high-speed steel in demanding production work.

Jobber length with conventional 118 degree point

The jobber-length flute provides standard reach for through-holes and moderate-depth drilling without the rigidity loss of longer bits. A conventional 118-degree point centres easily on flat surfaces and starts cleanly in a drill press or rigid hand-held setup, while the bright uncoated finish avoids coating buildup in sticky materials.

0.1719 inch decimal equivalent for exact tooling

The fractional 11/64 inch size converts to 0.1719 inch, giving programmers and inspectors the precise dimension required for CNC tool tables and first-article inspection. Buyers needing coolant-through capability or a split-point geometry for self-centring in portable drilling should select a different bit.
