Westward Jobber Drill 13/64 In Carbide 118 Deg

Drill Bit for Hard Materials

This solid-carbide jobber drill measures 13/64 in with a 118-degree conventional point. It is designed for high-speed cutting of difficult-to-machine materials such as cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, plastic, glass and abrasive composites. The uncoated bright finish suits general-purpose drilling into hardened steel. Supplied as a single piece.

Fits Standard Drilling Setups

The jobber-length shank fits common drill chucks and collets without adapters. Carbide construction allows higher cutting speeds than high-speed steel, reducing cycle time on abrasive workpieces. No external coolant system is mandated by the tool design. It frees the operator from frequent bit changes when drilling hardened or abrasive stock.

Holds Edge Under Sustained Cutting

Solid carbide retains hardness at elevated temperatures generated during prolonged drilling. The 118-degree point geometry maintains centering accuracy over repeated holes in cast iron and glass-filled plastics. Uncoated surfaces resist loading when machining non-ferrous alloys at high speed. Wear progresses gradually rather than chipping under continuous load.
