9/64 In. Cobalt Pilot Point Drill Bit

Presenting the Irwin 9/64 in. Cobalt Pilot Point Drill Bit—a high-performance tool designed to cut hard metals with precision and reliability. Crafted from M42 cobalt steel with 8% cobalt, it delivers exceptional wear resistance for stainless steel, nickel alloys, titanium, and other abrasive materials. The 135° split-point (pilot point) starts on contact to prevent wandering, delivering clean, true holes from the first plunge. Its parabolic flute geometry promotes rapid chip removal and superior heat management, extending blade life under tough drilling conditions. The no-spin shank minimizes bit slippage in power tools, and the jobber-length geometry provides versatile reach for a range of applications.

Benefits: This cobalt bit is engineered to boost productivity by reducing dwell time and rework. It maintains sharpness longer and delivers consistent performance across a spectrum of metalworking tasks, from fabrication to maintenance, making it ideal for shops that drill stainless steel, and other hard metals.

• Pilot point design starts holes cleanly with minimal walking, especially on stainless steel and heavy alloys.
• Parabolic flute geometry improves heat dissipation and chip evacuation for cooler cutting and longer life.
• M42 cobalt alloy (8% cobalt) delivers superior hardness and wear resistance for drilling hard metals and abrasive alloys.
• No-spin shank resists slipping in power tools during high-torque drilling.
• Size options with a 3/8 reduced shank on 7/16 and 1/2 versions for compatible chuck fit.

Experience Unmatched Performance: Built for professional shops and demanding jobs, this drill bit combines durability, precision, and efficiency to help you complete tough drilling tasks with confidence.
