Product Specification

#3 HSS BLACK OXIDE JOBBER LENGTH DRILL BITS - 12 PACK

#3 HSS Black Oxide Jobber Length Drill Bits - 12 Pack is a drill bit that has a long length compared to its diameter. These bits provide more flexibility and absorb more shock and vibration than cobalt, powdered-metal, and carbide jobber-length. These jobber bits have a good balance of strength and precision when drilling into a range of materials. Each jobber bit is commonly used in softer materials such as wood, soft metals, or composite. They come in a wide range of sizes, finishes, and materials. Our jobber bits are designed, engineered, and superbly crafted to provide long-lasting durability.

A 135 degree split point designed to prevent wobbling, walking or skating and eliminate the need for a pilot punch. These bits are manufactured from M2 high speed steel and heat treated to ensure an extended life and optimal performance cutting holes. The black oxide finish provides increased abrasion and corrosion resistance.

Henry ★★★★★

For the price of a single specialty bit at the hardware store, I got a whole box of #3s that have handled everything from steel brackets to brass without dulling. The black oxide coating seems to be doing its job, and the 12-pack means I don't panic when one snaps.

Edward ★★★★★

These are my go-to bits now for metal work; the black oxide coating really does cut through without grabbing, and the 12-pack means I always have a spare when one finally snaps. The jobber length gives me enough reach for most holes without flexing.

Scarlett N. ★★★★★

Punched through some tough steel shelf brackets without any wandering, and the black oxide coating looks like it'll hold up well. Nice having a dozen of these in a compact case, too.
