Built from heavy-duty high speed steel with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it is designed for cutting steel alloy and similarly tough ferrous materials. The overall length is 4-1\/8 inches with a 2-7\/8 inch flute length and a straight-cylindrical shank of 0.2660 inches in diameter. The web-thinned, tapered-web geometry reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. This bit is part of the Series 150DHT and is intended for use by machinists, maintenance techs, and metalworking tradespeople who require consistent performance in production or field drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling steel alloy workpieces in both shop and field settings. The parabolic flute design promotes efficient chip removal during deep-hole drilling, reducing the need for peck cycles in moderate-depth applications. The TiN coating extends tool life and reduces friction at the cutting edge. Right-hand cut rotation is standard for use with conventional drill presses, hand drills, and CNC setups. The straight-cylindrical shank seats reliably in standard Jacobs-style chucks and collet holders. Typical applications include structural steel fabrication, maintenance and repair operations, and general metalworking where a letter-size bit is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter H size: 0.2660 inches diameter with a tolerance of -0.0010 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces walking and lowers required thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParabolic flute geometry improves chip evacuation in steel alloy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride (TiN) coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered-web construction reduces drill pressure at entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty high speed steel grade rated for demanding production and MRO use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style jobber length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 0.2660-inch straight-cylindrical shank; suitable for drilling steel alloy and comparable ferrous materials as indicated by the Series 150DHT specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tradespeople familiar with rotary cutting tools. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify runout before operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable workplace safety standards when drilling metal. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping, excessive wear, or dimensional drift beyond tolerance is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2660 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Finish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-7\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2660 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0010 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel Alloy\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: 150DHT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\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: 53875\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731967607090,"sku":"53875","price":24.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/420eb9948bb0d0442dc37e80ab6e7f68_121068de-e465-4ddf-becc-25a08ba9c037.jpg?v=1788737380","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-53875-letter-h-jobber-drill-bit-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
