Accupro 20417 Jobber Drill Bit 9.5mm Carbide Tin 150 Degree

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 20417 is a jobber-length drill bit designed for precision drilling in demanding shop and field applications. Built from solid carbide and coated with titanium nitride (TiN), this bit delivers extended tool life and reduced friction compared to standard high-speed steel tooling. It measures 4.25 inches overall length with a 2.28-inch flute length, and cuts a 9.5 mm (0.3700 inch) diameter hole. The 150-degree point angle and three-flute spiral geometry support fast chip evacuation and accurate hole entry, particularly in harder workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this style of bit.

This drill bit is suited for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held drilling equipment where a straight-cylindrical shank is required. The regular spiral and standard point type make it a practical general-purpose carbide bit for production or maintenance machining environments. It performs well in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a TiN-coated solid carbide tool is specified. The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip clearance in moderately deep holes without extended-length tooling.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance beyond HSS tooling
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• 150-degree point angle for reduced thrust and accurate positioning at entry
• Three-flute spiral geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cutting direction, regular spiral, no coolant-through requirement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber-length drill bit with a straight-cylindrical shank conforming to ANSI specification, compatible with standard drill chucks and ER collet systems accepting a 9.5 mm shank diameter.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and operated by machinists and skilled tradespeople working with drill presses, milling machines, or CNC equipment. Ensure the spindle and workpiece are secured before engaging the cut, and verify chuck or collet runout is within acceptable limits to protect the carbide cutting edges. Carbide tooling is brittle and should not be used in applications with significant side-load or interrupted cuts unless the setup is rigid. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for speed and feed selection.
