48-89-2731 Thunderbolt Black Oxide Drill Bit, 25/64 In., Jobber

The Milwaukee 48-89-2731 Thunderbolt Black Oxide Drill Bit is a 25/64-inch jobber-length bit engineered for general-purpose drilling in wood, metal, and PVC. The black oxide coating reduces friction, resists corrosion, and extends bit life in demanding applications. This bit requires less effort to drill through these materials compared to standard drill bits.

The Thunderbolt design features a thicker web core than standard drill bits, providing superior strength and protection against side-load breakage—a critical advantage when drilling at angles or on curved surfaces. The parabolic flute geometry clears chips away from the cutting zone. The 3-flat Secure-Grip shank holds the bit firmly in the drill chuck. The 135-degree split-point tip delivers precision entry without walking, eliminating the need for pilot holes and producing clean, accurate holes on the first attempt.
