Built from high speed steel with an oxide coating, this bit is designed for heavy-duty precision drilling in tight-tolerance applications. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking on entry and requires no center punch on most workpieces. With a web-thinned, tapered web configuration and regular spiral fluting, it channels chips efficiently and maintains cutting performance through demanding materials. Licensed HVAC techs, machinists, and sheet metal professionals reach for bits like this when hole placement and diameter accuracy are non-negotiable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel in production and maintenance environments. At 1.25 inches overall length with a 0.375-inch flute length, it fits compact drilling situations where longer bits would flex or chatter. The straight-cylindrical shank at 0.0280 inches diameter seats securely in standard drill chucks and collets. The Series 150ASP designation indicates a high-performance tooling line built to NAS 907 Type B standards, making it a reliable choice for aerospace-adjacent and general metalworking applications where dimensional tolerance matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 70, 0.0280-inch diameter with a tight tolerance of -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree standard point angle reduces drill walk and improves entry accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide coating for heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces thrust required during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, 2-flute regular spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NAS 907 Type B specification for heavy-duty performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement that can snap small-diameter bits. Use cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel or hardened steel to manage heat and extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use; a dull or chipped bit at this diameter will wander and produce oversized holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 70\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0280 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0280 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\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: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: 44740\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738606600498,"sku":"44740","price":36.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/782460eef0061e5342807dea23a26913_d2655dd0-19ea-4a49-acd7-42082fd5248c.jpg?v=1788801672","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-44740-jobber-drill-bit-size-70-hss-135","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
