Accupro 10401 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill Bit 8 Mm

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 10401 is a solid carbide jobber length drill bit designed for precision hole-making in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bit measures 8 mm (0.3150 inches) in diameter with a 150-degree drill point angle and a bright, uncoated finish. Overall length is 95 mm (3.74 inches), and the spiral flute length is 48 mm (1.89 inches). The 3-flute, right-hand cutting design promotes efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting performance in a range of shop and field drilling applications. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks.

This bit is suited for metalworking, fabrication, and machining environments where dimensional accuracy and bit longevity are priorities. The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio and regular spiral type make it a dependable choice for through-hole and blind-hole drilling in steel, aluminum, and similar materials. It is commonly used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metal fabricators working with CNC machines, drill presses, or handheld power tools requiring a standard jobber length profile.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for extended tool life in demanding materials
• 150-degree drill point angle for reduced thrust and accurate self-starting entry
• 3-flute spiral design promotes chip clearance and consistent cut quality
• Bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose drilling without added coating buildup
• Straight cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets
• Conforms to ANSI specification designation for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber length drill bit for use in any drill chuck or collet accepting an 8 mm straight cylindrical shank, conforming to ANSI dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with rotating cutting tools. Ensure the drill chuck or collet is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before operation. Coolant-through capability is not supported on this bit, so external coolant or cutting fluid should be applied as needed per material requirements. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if damage is observed.
