Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, it features a 12-inch overall length and a 9-inch spiral flute for extended reach into workpieces that standard-length bits cannot access. The 118-degree notched point with web thinning reduces thrust at entry and improves chip evacuation. Two right-hand spiral flutes and a tapered web configuration keep the bit tracking straight through cast iron and steel. Licensed trades and machining professionals rely on this series for structural fabrication, mechanical contracting, and maintenance work where deep clearance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 50596 belongs to CHICAGO-LATROBE Series 120X, a general-purpose extra length line suited for production and field drilling in ferrous metals. Primary workpiece materials are cast iron and steel. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.5625 inches in diameter with a 3-inch shank length, making it compatible with standard drill chucks found on portable drills, drill presses, and magnetic base drills. It is well suited to HVAC equipment fabrication, structural steel work, and mechanical equipment installation where access depth exceeds the reach of jobber-length bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability in cast iron and steel applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish reduces friction and provides corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree notched point with web thinning for reduced entry thrust and improved centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9-inch spiral flute length and 12-inch overall length for long-reach drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank at 0.5625 inches diameter fits standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0012 inches for consistent, on-size holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction with regular spiral and tapered web for stable chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose extra length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and drill press spindles accepting straight cylindrical shanks.

Use cutting fluid or coolant when drilling steel to extend bit life and maintain hole tolerance. Reduce feed pressure as the bit breaks through the exit side of the workpiece to prevent grab or deflection. Inspect the cutting edges for wear between uses, particularly on extended-reach applications where bit flex and heat buildup are greater than with jobber-length bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch (0.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Notched\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Steel\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120X\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long Reach Drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: California Prop 65\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: 50596\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730442387762,"sku":"50596","price":99.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6a9d9c629d17e1563f51ca8c920fc284_56ae0f42-65b8-4378-a5af-e8c86a58da54.jpg?v=1788717550","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-50596-extra-length-drill-bit-9-16-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
