Built from heavy-duty high speed steel with a coated finish, it offers a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and cutting force on entry. The web-thinned, parallel-web construction supports consistent chip evacuation through its two spiral flutes. At 0.157 inches (wire size #22) in diameter, this bit fits screw machine and short-hole drilling applications where rigidity and precision matter. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die shops, and trade mechanics installing equipment fasteners are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production drilling in ferrous metals, specifically cast iron and steel, in both shop and field maintenance settings. The screw machine length format — shorter overall length than a jobber bit — provides added rigidity and reduced deflection in drill press, turret lathe, and CNC screw machine setups. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly in standard drill chucks without adapters. It meets NAS 907 and ISO standards, making it appropriate for aerospace-adjacent and precision manufacturing environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and prevents bit walking on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel-web design supports efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty high speed steel construction rated for cast iron and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (2.125 inches overall) provides superior rigidity over jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance held to +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NAS 907 and ISO standards for precision and aerospace-adjacent applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitute for screw machine length drill bits in Series 159 applications targeting cast iron and steel workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall in a standard drill chuck sized for a straight-cylindrical shank before powering the machine.
