Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel with a black oxide finish, this bit measures 15\/64 inches (0.2344 inches) in diameter and features a 135-degree split point for self-centering entry with reduced walking. The tapered web configuration and web-thinned geometry lower thrust requirements and improve chip evacuation. A 3-3\/4-inch spiral flute length and 6-1\/8-inch overall length make it well suited for deeper hole applications where a standard-length bit falls short. Right-hand cut with a straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, high-tensile steel, Inconel, manganese steel, and titanium  -  materials that quickly wear conventional high-speed steel tooling. The cobalt M42 matrix provides superior heat resistance and edge retention at elevated cutting speeds. It is a practical choice for maintenance and production machinists, tool and die shops, aerospace fabricators, and industrial contractors working with hard or abrasive base metals. The straight shank accepts standard drill chucks on bench, floor, or magnetic drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt steel construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point provides self-centering entry and reduces drill walking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web lowers thrust and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish reduces friction and provides mild corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper length flute (3-3\/4 inches) allows deeper holes than jobber-length equivalents\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute, straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for drilling cast iron, high-tensile steel, Inconel, manganese steel, and titanium.

Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before operation and verify the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the base metal to extend tool life and manage heat, particularly when drilling Inconel or titanium. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 520\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/64 inches (0.2344 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 Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42 HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-1\/8 inches\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/64 inches (0.2344 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches\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\u003eThreaded Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, High-Tensile Steel, Inconel, Manganese Steel, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 44815\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740540141874,"sku":"44815","price":30.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7c3f8d983f5765920e44832087e405cc_f4adb52a-1034-45e1-9067-cc9ebd69343e.jpg?v=1788825800","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-44815-taper-length-drill-bit-15-64-in-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
