DRL 5/64 TIN JL 135' BULK - Irwin

The Irwin 5/64" TiN Coated Jobber Length Drill Bit (63705) is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics seeking reliable performance in demanding applications. This high-speed steel (HSS) drill bit features a durable Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, significantly extending its cutting edge life up to six times longer than standard HSS bits. The specialized 135-degree split point tip ensures immediate, self-centering starts, minimizing "walking" and reducing the need for pilot holes, even on curved or harder surfaces.

Key Features

• Premium High-Speed Steel (HSS) Construction: Manufactured from high-quality HSS steel for strength and durability in professional environments.
• Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coating: Provides exceptional wear resistance and heat dissipation, allowing for faster drilling speeds (40-60% higher) and increased feed rates (10-20% higher) in various metals. The coating also reduces friction, consuming less power and generating less heat during drilling.
• 135-Degree Split Point: Designed for self-centering, this aggressive point reduces drilling pressure and prevents bit walking, ensuring precise hole placement from the start.
• Jobber Length: Offers a versatile balance of reach and rigidity, making it suitable for a wide array of general-purpose drilling tasks.
• Bulk Packaging: Ideal for industrial and automotive shops that require a steady supply of high-performance drill bits.

Applications

This Irwin drill bit is specifically designed for drilling precise holes in a variety of materials common in automotive and industrial settings. It is well-suited for repetitive drilling in:

• Metals: Including mild steel, high alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and copper.
• Plastics: Efficiently drills through various types of plastic components.
• Wood: Capable of drilling clean holes in hardwoods and softwoods.

The Irwin 63705 is a reliable choice for creating pilot holes for fasteners, drilling out spot welds (with appropriate technique), and general fabrication or repair work where consistent performance and extended tool life are critical.
