Built to Series 120X specifications, this bit features a 118-degree notched point with web thinning for easier starting and reduced thrust on entry. The oxide finish provides a basic level of lubricity and heat resistance during drilling. Cutting direction is right hand with a regular spiral and tapered web configuration. Two spiral flutes channel chips away from the cutting zone. This bit is sized at 0.2344 inches in diameter with a straight-cylindrical shank of equal diameter, suited for use in standard drill chucks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for long reach applications where standard length bits cannot access the workpiece. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron and steel, making it well suited for HVAC equipment fabrication, structural steel work, plumbing rough-in, and general mechanical maintenance. The 8-inch overall length and 5.5-inch flute length allow the bit to bore into deep cavities, recessed channels, and confined structural members that shorter bits cannot reach. Machinists, pipefitters, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this style of extended reach drill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra length design at 8 inches overall for long reach access in deep or confined work areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree notched point with web thinning reduces entry thrust and improves centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction maintains hardness under friction heat generated during steel and cast iron drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides light lubricity and basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered web with regular spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance held to +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches for consistent fit in standard chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-purpose extended length drill bit for use in standard straight-shank drill chucks compatible with a 0.2344-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed by a machinist, ironworker, pipefitter, or maintenance technician using a standard keyed or keyless drill chuck rated for the shank diameter. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation to prevent slippage or wobble during cutting. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling cast iron or steel to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges and point for wear or chipping before each use, and do not apply excessive side load to the extended shank as this can cause deflection or breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2344 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2344 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches\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\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long Reach Drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: California Prop 65\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: 50730\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732375372082,"sku":"50730","price":40.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6a9d9c629d17e1563f51ca8c920fc284_88244959-e8c8-4e53-9b6a-2a0684367755.jpg?v=1788742208","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-50730-extra-length-drill-bit-0-2344in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
