Drill bit for precision metalwork

This 19/64 inch carbide jobber drill bit is built for machine drilling in hard metals where high-speed steel wears quickly. The 118-degree conventional point centres the cut without a pilot hole. Bright uncoated flutes suit general-purpose ferrous and non-ferrous applications.

Carbide holds its edge longer

Under sustained feed pressure the carbide tip resists heat deformation better than cobalt or high-speed steel. The 118-degree point geometry distributes load across both cutting lips, reducing chatter when the bit reaches full depth. Chip evacuation remains consistent through the jobber-length flutes.

Check shank fit and coolant needs

The straight shank diameter matches the 19/64 inch cutting diameter, so verify your chuck or collet accepts this size. The bit is non-coolant-through; plan external flood or mist cooling for deep holes. No coating means the surface stays bright but offers no lubricity aid.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 19/64 inch carbide bit generate when drilling all day?

Carbide runs hotter than high-speed steel; use cutting fluid and peck drilling to manage temperature during extended sessions.

What shank size must my drill chuck accept for the 19/64 inch jobber bit?

The bit has a straight 19/64 inch shank, so you need a chuck that opens to at least 0.2969 inch.

Will the 118 degree conventional point work in the older cast-iron parts I keep on the shelf?

Yes, the 118 degree point is standard for cast iron and general-purpose steel, matching the geometry your existing tooling expects.
