It is TiN (Titanium Nitride) coated and manufactured from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, giving it elevated heat resistance and edge retention compared to standard HSS bits. The overall length is 3.0 inches with a 1-7\/8-inch flute length and a straight-cylindrical shank. This bit is suited to production drilling and maintenance work where heat buildup and tool wear are primary concerns. It is installed and used by machinists, pipefitters, maintenance technicians, and other trades requiring precision drilling in hard or abrasive materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 54036 is designed primarily for drilling stainless steel and carbon steel, where its M42 cobalt matrix and TiN coating provide the durability needed to maintain cutting performance through tough, work-hardening alloys. The 135-degree split point reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust force required at the spindle, making it practical for use in both drill press and hand-drill applications where a center punch start is not always feasible. The Series 2550 designation places it in the heavy-duty tier of the CHICAGO-LATROBE catalog, built to DIN 338 and NAS 907 Type J standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt high-speed steel construction for superior heat and wear resistance in hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTitanium Nitride (TiN) coating extends tool life and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walking and lowers required feed pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web construction for improved chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with right-hand cut; 2-flute configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to DIN 338 and NAS 907 Type J standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for drilling stainless steel and steel workpieces.

Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck before operation to prevent slippage. Use a cutting fluid or coolant appropriate for the workpiece material to manage heat, particularly when drilling stainless steel. Inspect the cutting edge before each use and replace the bit if chipping or dulling is observed to maintain hole tolerance within the rated -0.0007 to 0.0000 inch range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 26\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1470 inches\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 Point, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42 Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches (1-7\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1470 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: Regular Spiral\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\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0007 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2550\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 338, NAS 907 Type J\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 54036\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CHICAGO-LATROBE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747442065714,"sku":"54036","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/91501bd507780815462ea959110656ff.jpg?v=1788880301","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/chicago-latrobe-54036-cobalt-jobber-drill-bit-no-26","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
