Manufactured from high speed steel with a coated finish, this bit measures 5\/64 inch (0.0781 inches) in diameter and features a standard 118-degree split point with web thinning to reduce walking and improve centering on entry. The spiral flute geometry and tapered web configuration promote efficient chip evacuation during drilling. At 3-3\/4 inches overall length with a 2-inch flute, the taper length format provides extended reach compared to jobber-length bits while maintaining rigidity. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance tradespeople rely on this bit for consistent performance on ferrous metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held power drills where a straight shank is required. It is optimized for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron in both production and maintenance repair environments. The right-hand cut spiral flute configuration is compatible with standard right-hand spindle rotation. The Series 120 designation places this bit in CHICAGO-LATROBE general-purpose tooling line, appropriate for shop environments handling a variety of ferrous workpieces at moderate cutting speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for improved entry and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoated finish to extend tool life and reduce friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-inch spiral flute length promotes chip evacuation in deeper holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight shank at 0.0781 inches diameter fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web configuration maintains core strength through the full flute length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for standard 3-jaw drill chucks accepting straight shank bits at 5\/64 inch (0.0781 inches) diameter.

Secure the straight shank firmly in a calibrated chuck before operation and verify runout is within acceptable tolerance. Ensure the workpiece is clamped securely and the spindle speed is appropriate for the material and diameter being drilled. Disconnect power to the machine before changing or inspecting tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/64 inch (0.0781 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0781 inches (1.98 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 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: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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, Non-Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Carbon Steel, Cast Iron\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0051 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 49705\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737167266098,"sku":"49705","price":85.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/38f4e59c41e277cff6cf93e03827ed8a.jpg?v=1788785151","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-49705-taper-length-drill-bit-5-64-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
