3/16" X 4-1/4" COBALT INDUSTRIAL DRILL BIT, 135° SPLIT POINT
Engineered for high-performance drilling in tough materials, this 3/16" cobalt drill bit provides exceptional heat resistance and durability. The 135° split-point tip prevents 'walking' for precise, clean holes in stainless steel, cast iron, and other hardened alloys.
- M35 (5% Cobalt) Material
- 135° Split-Point Geometry
- High Heat Resistance (up to 1100°F)
- Stainless Steel & Hard Metals
This industrial-grade 3/16" x 4-1/4" drill bit is forged from M35 high-speed steel, an alloy containing 5% cobalt. This composition significantly increases red hardness, allowing the bit to maintain its cutting edge at high temperatures (up to 1100°F) encountered when drilling hardened materials. The precision-ground flutes ensure efficient chip evacuation, reducing friction and heat buildup. This design delivers superior tool life and consistent performance in demanding fabrication and MRO environments, outlasting standard HSS bits when working with abrasive or tough metals.
The 135° split-point tip is self-centering, eliminating the need for a center punch and ensuring accurate hole placement from the start. This geometry requires less thrust to initiate drilling, making it ideal for both handheld drills and stationary drill presses. This cobalt drill bit is the professional's choice for drilling into stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, and titanium. Its robust construction makes it an essential tool for metal fabricators, automotive technicians, and maintenance professionals requiring reliable drilling solutions.

- Aerospace & Tooling: Creating precise holes in tough alloys and tool steels where heat generation is a concern.
Target Users
Designed for professional metalworkers, mechanics, MRO technicians, and fabricators who require a durable, high-performance bit for drilling hard and abrasive metals.
Finish Options
Cobalt drill bits typically feature a gold oxide or bronze-colored surface finish. This is a result of the heat treatment process and is not a coating, but rather an integral part of the bit that helps identify it as a cobalt alloy and provides minor heat and corrosion resistance.
How to Measure
Drill bit dimensions are specified by diameter and length. The diameter is the width of the cutting head. Overall length (OAL) is measured from the tip to the end of the shank. Ensure you select the correct diameter for your hole requirement and a length sufficient for the depth of material.
Example: 3/16" Diameter x 4-1/4" OAL, Cobalt Drill Bit, 135° Split Point
