Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a coated finish, it measures 31\/32 inch (0.9688 inches) in diameter and carries a standard 118-degree split point. Overall length is 11 inches with a flute length of 6.375 inches and a shank length of 4.625 inches. The web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die techs, and industrial maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 49762 is suited for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron in general-purpose production and maintenance environments. Its taper length body provides greater reach than a jobber-length bit, making it appropriate for deeper hole applications where a standard-length drill cannot reach. The straight shank fits directly into conventional drill chucks on drill presses, CNC machines, and hand-held power drills with appropriate chuck capacity. No coolant-through capability is present, so external coolant or cutting fluid should be applied when drilling harder alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e31\/32 inch (0.9688 inches) diameter with a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\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-thinned geometry to reduce entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper length body at 11 inches overall length for extended reach applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with right-hand cut for standard drilling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight shank at 0.9688 inches diameter for direct chuck mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill for use in alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron.

Always power down and lock out the machine before loading or removing the bit. Secure the straight shank fully in the chuck and verify concentricity before initiating a cut. Apply appropriate cutting fluid when working with hard alloys to extend tool life and prevent premature dulling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9688 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9688 inches\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\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: Tapered Web-Thinned\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0012 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: 1.719 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 49762\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740697690418,"sku":"49762","price":151.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6c51264720ed1c4e3f21beb5eec48be0.jpg?v=1788826794","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-49762-taper-length-drill-bit-31-32-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
