The bit measures 5\/64 inch (0.0781 inches) in diameter with an overall length of 1-11\/16 inches and a flute length of 11\/16 inches. The shorter body length of screw machine bits provides added rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, reducing deflection in tight or confined drilling applications. Constructed from high speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, the 48505 features a standard 118-degree point angle and a web-thinned parallel web configuration for easier penetration and reduced thrust. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople install this bit in hand drills, drill presses, and screw machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in metal fabrication, general machining, and light industrial environments. The 5\/64-inch diameter is a common size for pilot holes, through-holes in sheet metal, and pre-drill passes before tapping. Its straight-cylindrical shank accepts standard drill chucks. The Series 157 designation identifies this as a current Chicago-Latrobe production line bit, built to ISO standards for consistent dimensional accuracy across the cutting diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/64 inch diameter (0.0781 inches) with tight tolerance: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web reduces cutting thrust and entry resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body (1-11\/16 inches overall) improves rigidity and reduces deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — no coating to flake or chip under heat cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt to ISO dimensional standards, Series 157\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a straight-cylindrical shank.

Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling steel to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Ensure the chuck jaws seat squarely on the straight-cylindrical shank before tightening to prevent runout. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use, particularly in production drilling cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/64 inch (0.0781 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 157\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0024 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: 48505\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729761075506,"sku":"48505","price":32.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0935664c0e2428a5b35e920935b8274f.jpg?v=1788709045","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-48505-5-64-inch-screw-machine-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
