Chicago-latrobe 50301 Taper Length Drill Bit 0.1910 in

Product Description

The CHICAGO-LATROBE 50301 is a taper length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal and industrial materials. It measures 0.1910 inches in diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle and a 6-inch overall length. The bit is manufactured from high speed steel with a coated finish to extend wear life and reduce friction during cutting. A spiral flute with web-thinning geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces the force required to start and maintain the cut. Right-hand cutting rotation is standard. This bit is part of the Series 120 line and is suited for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking trades.

This drill bit is designed for drilling into alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron in production and maintenance applications. The straight shank is compatible with standard drill chucks on benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling setups. With a 3-5/8-inch flute length and taper length body, it reaches deeper hole depths than jobber-length bits without sacrificing rigidity. The wire gauge size equivalent is No. 11. This bit is sold individually and is appropriate for both shop floor and field service use.

Key Features

• 0.1910-inch diameter with a tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches for consistent hole sizing
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web configuration for easier starting
• High speed steel construction rated for alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron
• Coated finish reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• 3-5/8-inch spiral flute length promotes chip clearance in deeper holes
• Straight shank at 0.1910 inches diameter fits standard drill chucks without adapters

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks. Rated for use in alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron workpieces.

Installation Notes

Install the straight shank fully into a properly sized drill chuck and tighten securely before use. Secure the workpiece before drilling to prevent movement. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling ferrous metals to prolong bit life, noting that this bit does not support through-coolant delivery. Follow applicable shop safety procedures including eye protection and secure workholding.
