Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CHICAGO-LATROBE Jobber Length Drill Bit #17 used for?
The CHICAGO-LATROBE #17 left-hand drill bit is designed for drilling holes in metal, particularly for screw extraction and reverse-rotation applications. Its 118° point and high-speed steel construction suit general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Common in maintenance, tool-and-die, and production environments.
What are the specifications of the CHICAGO-LATROBE 44487 drill bit?
The CHICAGO-LATROBE 44487 is a #17 jobber-length drill bit with a 0.1730-inch diameter, 118° point angle, and left-hand spiral. It is made of high-speed steel (HSS) for durability. The left-hand design prevents bit walking in reverse-rotation drilling and aids in removing broken fasteners.

How to select the correct left-hand drill bit for screw extraction?
For screw extraction, choose a left-hand drill bit like the CHICAGO-LATROBE #17 (0.1730 inch) that matches the fastener's minor diameter. Use a 118° point for general metals. Apply cutting oil and drill at slow speed with steady pressure. The left-hand rotation helps loosen seized screws during drilling.
