The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust requirements compared to conventional 118-degree points. Web thinning further aids penetration in harder workpiece materials. At 4.125 inches overall length with a 2.875-inch flute length, this bit fits standard jobber-length drill chucks and CNC setups alike. It is sized and manufactured to NAS 907 Type B standards, making it a suitable choice for production drilling environments where dimensional consistency and tool life are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel. The TiN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge, extending tool life in ferrous materials compared to uncoated HSS. The straight-cylindrical shank with a 1.25-inch shank diameter seats securely in standard drill chucks, turret lathes, and drill press fixtures. Typical applications include general production drilling, maintenance work, and repeat-hole operations where a letter-size drill is required for tapping or reamed-fit preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter F size, 0.2570 inches decimal, with a diameter tolerance of -0.0010 to 0.0000 inches for precise fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes walking on hard or smooth surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating improves wear resistance and extends tool life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web construction for improved chip clearance and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute regular spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNAS 907 Type B compliant, heavy-duty grade construction for production and maintenance use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for drilling cast iron, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

Ensure the drill chuck or toolholder is fully tightened and rated for the shank diameter before operation. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and bit diameter per standard machining practice. Do not exceed the rated capacity of the drill press or CNC machine being used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2570 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907 Type B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150ASP-TN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0010 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CHICAGO-LATROBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 41776\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738331873586,"sku":"41776","price":17.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/789eac01f563e0bb75454c3b401ff306.jpg?v=1788798340","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-41776-letter-f-hss-tin-drill-bit-0-2570","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
