Cobalt Straight Shank Drill Bit - 7/32In - Hanson

The Hanson 63114 Cobalt Straight Shank Drill Bit, with a 7/32-inch diameter, is engineered for robust and precise drilling in demanding metalworking applications. Constructed from premium M-35 5% cobalt high-speed steel, this professional-grade bit offers superior heat resistance and extended edge life, making it an essential tool for automotive, industrial, and fabrication professionals tackling tough materials.

Key Features

• Premium Cobalt HSS-Co Construction: Crafted from M-35 5% cobalt high-speed steel, this drill bit withstands higher drilling temperatures and resists abrasion, ensuring clean, accurate holes in challenging materials like stainless steel, cast iron, and high-tensile steels.
• Versatile Straight Shank Design: The standard straight shank allows for quick and secure chucking in common handheld drills, drill presses, and other shop equipment, enhancing compatibility across various professional setups.
• Optimized Drilling Geometry: Featuring a 135-degree split point tip and heavy-duty spiral flutes, the bit self-centers on contact, effectively reduces "walking," and facilitates efficient chip evacuation, minimizing torque and work hardening on harder materials.
• Enhanced Durability and Edge Life: Designed to maintain cutting edge integrity under continuous heavy use, this bit reduces the frequency of bit changes, optimizing workflow and productivity in busy professional environments.
• Compact 3.75" Overall Length: The shorter length enhances rigidity and control, providing improved stability and minimizing flex, particularly when drilling into tougher metals or operating in confined spaces.

Applications

This 7/32" cobalt drill bit is well-suited for a wide range of professional tasks, including general automotive repair, vehicle fabrication, and Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) work. It excels in applications such as creating mounting holes, working on exhaust components, and fabricating brackets in steel and stainless steel assemblies commonly found in passenger cars, light trucks, and fleet vehicles. This tool is also effective for industrial maintenance, equipment repair, and production settings requiring a reliable and durable 7/32" metal drilling solution for light to medium-gauge metals.
