Manufactured from M7 high speed steel with a TiCN (titanium carbonitride) coating, it delivers extended tool life and heat resistance compared to uncoated HSS bits. The bit measures 9\/32 inches (0.2812 inches decimal) in diameter with a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust requirements. Overall length is 4-1\/4 inches with a flute length of 2-15\/16 inches. Right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is built for professionals drilling cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel in fabrication, maintenance, plumbing rough-in, HVAC sheet metal work, and general mechanical applications. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks on corded and cordless drills as well as drill presses. The Series 150ASP-TC designation indicates a web-thinned, tapered-web construction that reduces cutting resistance in harder alloys, making it well suited for production environments where bit longevity matters. It ships individually and is sold as a single unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM7 high speed steel base material for heavy-duty cutting performance in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating extends surface hardness and wear resistance versus uncoated HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walk and lowers required thrust on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered-web construction reduces cutting resistance in hard alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular-spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets NAS 907 Type B specification for dimensional and performance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks accepting a straight-cylindrical shank; primary workpiece materials listed by the manufacturer are cast iron, stainless steel, and steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed and used by machinists, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance mechanics using handheld drills or drill presses. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck before use and verify chuck key is removed before starting the machine. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel or hardened alloys to manage heat buildup, noting that this bit does not support coolant-through delivery. Inspect the cutting edges and TiCN coating for wear before each use and replace the bit when point geometry is degraded to avoid oversized holes or work-hardening the substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/32 inches (0.2812 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-15\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3125 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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: M7 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\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-TC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 43618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727424815410,"sku":"43618","price":20.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fccea1bb489741633b5a7f013868ddc3.jpg?v=1788677774","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-43618-9-32-in-jobber-drill-bit-ticn-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
