These jobbers'-length bits have the rigidity and length required for most applications.
Black-oxide and black-and-gold-oxide drill bits produce less friction than uncoated drill bits.
Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated and oxide-coated drill bits.
Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.

These jobbers'-length bits have the rigidity and length required for most applications. Made of cobalt steel, which has better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, they can run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life.
Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated drill bits.
Titanium-aluminum-nitride (TiAlN) coated drill bits are the most wear and temperature resistant for the longest life and highest drilling speeds.
Gold-oxide drill bits produce less friction than uncoated drill bits.
Drill bits with a split point keep centered without a pilot hole.

Chip-Clearing Cobalt Steel Drill Bits

The parabolic spiral flutes lift chips out of the hole, reducing clogging and improving coolant flow. With better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, these cobalt steel bits can run up to 25% faster and have a longer tool life. All are jobbers’ length so they have the rigidity and length required for most applications. A split point keeps the bit centered without a pilot hole.

Quick-Change Carbide Drill Bits

Make fast bit changes—all of these bits have the same shank diameter, eliminating the need for different collets to hold each size. Made of solid carbide for the highest accuracy and longest tool life, they are harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel, cobalt steel, and carbide-tipped bits. They retain a sharp, hard edge at high temperatures for the best performance on hard and abrasive material. These bits require rigid toolholding to prevent breakage and should not be used in handheld drilling. All are jobbers’ length so they have the rigidity and length required for most applications.
Titanium-nitride (TiN) coated drill bits last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated drill bits.

Hardened Undersized High-Speed M2 Tool Steel Rods

- Yield Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Rockwell C60 (Very Hard)
These rods, also known as drill blanks, have an undersized diameter for machining your own jobbers'-length drill bits. They're hardened for increased abrasion and impact resistance. M2 tool steel offers a nice balance of wear resistance and machinability. It has a high molybdenum content, which allows it to maintain sharp cutting edges even at elevated temperatures.
