If you’re stepping up to tougher metals, the Yellow Paw 1/2″ jobber drill bit is designed to bring more durability and control than basic bits. It uses M35 cobalt steel with a Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) finish and a 135° split point to help start cleaner and reduce “walking,” especially on stiffer materials like hardened and stainless steel.

This bit measures 6″ overall with a 4″ flute/working length and a 1/2″ round shank for straightforward fitment in compatible drills. A plastic storage case is included to keep the bit protected between jobs.
