High-speed\nsteel (HSS) provides hardness for wear resistance, and the black oxide finish\nacts as a lubricant to reduce wear while promoting chip and coolant flow. A\njobber length drill bit has a versatile midrange drilling depth and is a\ncommon choice for general-purpose applications. The round shank accommodates\nmost drill chucks. Drill bits are cutting tools used to make holes in a range\nof materials using machines such as handheld portable drills, machining\ncenters, and lathes. Drill bits come in a variety of lengths and types, the\nmost common of which is the twist drill bit. The round, twisted shaft of the\ntwist drill bit typically has two cutting edges and flutes. The helical twist\nof the flutes brings chips up and away from the cutting edges and allows for\ncoolant to reach the cutting edges. Jobber length twist drill bits, the most\ncommon length of twist drill bit, offer a good compromise of length and reach\nfor the widest range of materials and applications. Mechanic's length twist\ndrill bits (also called maintenance length) are a little shorter than jobber\nlength and less prone to deflection when drilling. Short length twist drill\nbits (also called stub or screw-machine length) are the shortest and stiffest\ntwist drill bits, helping to reduce the chance of deflection or breakage when\ndrilling. Reduced shank twist drill bits (also called Silver and Deming drill\nbits) have a shank that is smaller in diameter than its shaft, permitting\ndrilling machines with a 1\/4\", 1\/2\", or 3\/4\" drill chuck to create large\nholes. Long length twist drill bits (also called taper length) are a little\nlonger than jobber length, allowing for deeper holes and longer reach. Extra-\nlong length twist drill bits (also called extension) are longer than long\nlength twist drill bits for greater reach or for drilling deeper\nholes.Chicago-Latrobe manufactures drill bits and accessories, reamers,\ncountersinks, and blanks.
