Built from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it measures 11\/32 inch (0.3438 inches) in diameter and carries a 118-degree standard point angle. The shorter screw machine length body — 3 inches overall — provides greater rigidity than jobber-length bits, reducing deflection in close-tolerance work. The parallel web configuration and web-thinned point reduce thrust requirements at entry. Right-hand spiral flute geometry evacuates chips efficiently. This bit suits machinists, tool-and-die shops, and trade professionals who need a reliable, general-purpose drill for repetitive metal drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 48522 is rated for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel. Its screw machine length profile makes it well suited for drill press work, turret lathes, and CNC drilling centers where a shorter, stiffer bit is preferred over a standard jobber-length drill. The straight cylindrical shank fits conventional drill chucks without modification. At 0.3438 inches diameter with a tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches, it is suitable for applications requiring consistent hole sizing across production runs. Diameter falls within the 0.3000 to 0.3500 inch range of the Series 157 lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, parallel web for reduced entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (3 inches overall) for increased rigidity and reduced deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish — no coating to chip or flake during regrinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches for consistent, repeatable hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose OEM-style replacement or production drill for use in standard drill chucks accepting straight cylindrical shanks.

Secure the straight cylindrical shank firmly in a drill chuck before operation and verify chuck key is removed before starting the machine. No coolant-through capability is present on this bit — apply cutting fluid externally when drilling steel or cast iron to extend tool life. Inspect flute condition and point geometry before each use; regrinding is appropriate when point wear is visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\/32 inch (0.3438 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/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\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\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 157\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0577 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: 48522\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733681701170,"sku":"48522","price":44.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/acad6825cd463e8dfab18b6a86001e68.jpg?v=1788758051","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-48522-screw-machine-drill-bit-11-32-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
