Irwin 5/32" x 3-1/8" Titanium 135 Degree Drill Bit - Carded (63910)

The Irwin 5/32" x 3-1/8" Titanium 135 Degree Drill Bit - Carded (63910) is a single, high-performance tool engineered for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who require precision and durability. Designed to handle a wide range of materials, including metal, wood, and plastic, this jobber-length drill bit is a dependable addition to any toolbox. Its advanced design features, like the Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating and 135-degree split point, work together to provide a superior drilling experience.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Longer Bit Life: The Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating on the bit surface resists heat and friction, which can extend the bit's useful life up to six times longer compared to uncoated high-speed steel bits. This means less frequent bit changes and a more cost-effective tool over time.
• Quick, Accurate Starts: The 135-degree split-point tip allows the bit to start drilling immediately upon contact with the material. This design eliminates the need for a center punch and prevents the bit from "walking" or drifting away from the intended spot, resulting in a more precise hole.
• Reduced Drilling Effort: The combination of the split point and the advanced flute design helps reduce the pressure required to drill, making it easier to penetrate hard materials. This not only saves effort but also helps to prevent work-hardening of the material.

HOW TO USE:

1. Select the Right Speed: Adjust your drill speed based on the material you are drilling. Slower speeds are better for hard metals, while faster speeds are suitable for wood and plastic.
2. Secure the Bit: Insert the straight shank of the drill bit into the drill's chuck and tighten it securely. Ensure the bit is centered and stable before use.
3. Position the Drill: Place the tip of the bit directly on the marked spot for the hole. The split point design will help it grab the surface without slipping.
4. Apply Steady Pressure: Begin drilling at your selected speed while applying light, steady pressure. Avoid excessive force, as the bit is designed to cut efficiently on its own.
5. Clear Debris: Periodically pull the bit back slightly to clear chips and debris from the hole, especially when drilling deep. This helps prevent the bit from getting clogged and overheating.

BENEFITS OF USING IRWIN 5/32" X 3-1/8" TITANIUM 135 DEGREE DRILL BIT - CARDED (63910):
