The bit features a TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride) coating that extends tool life by reducing heat buildup and wear at the cutting edge. The 140-degree split point reduces thrust force and improves hole entry accuracy. With a UR-thinned web and slow spiral flute geometry, this bit is built for controlled chip evacuation in tough ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. Machinists and toolroom technicians use this bit in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual production work where dimensional accuracy and tool longevity are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production drilling and precision hole-making in hardened steels, stainless alloys, cast iron, and similar difficult-to-machine materials. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard drill chucks and collet holders sized for 3\/8-inch shank diameters. It is a single-piece solid carbide construction, making it a preferred choice when high-speed steel tooling lacks the rigidity or wear resistance needed for the application. It is sold and packaged individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetter U size (0.3680 inches) solid carbide construction for rigidity in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating improves heat resistance and extends cutting tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140-degree proprietary point angle reduces entry thrust and improves positioning accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUR-thinned web reduces axial cutting force at the drill tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow spiral flute geometry promotes controlled chip flow in dense or gummy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard 3\/8-inch chucks and collet systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a jobber-length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting a 3\/8-inch straight shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the bit from the chuck or collet. Solid carbide tooling is brittle compared to high-speed steel and is susceptible to chipping if subjected to shock loads or side forces — secure workpieces firmly and avoid interrupted cuts where possible. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines for spindle speeds and feed rates appropriate to the workpiece material and drill diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: U\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3680 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Proprietary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: UR-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slow Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4500122\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731000295730,"sku":"4500122","price":135.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4213e8f125b1c4bc518e46935904a178_a599626d-0870-46b7-858a-dcca50d464ae.jpg?v=1788725665","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-4500122-solid-carbide-jobber-drill-bit-letter-u","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
