Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a TiN (titanium nitride) tip coating, this bit delivers improved wear resistance and longer cutting life compared to uncoated HSS. The 118-degree split point reduces walking on entry and allows drilling to begin without a center punch in many applications. At 4.5 inches overall length with a 3.19-inch flute, it fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill press setups used daily by trade professionals and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for light-to-medium production drilling in shop and field environments. The 5\/16-inch diameter and straight cylindrical shank make it compatible with keyed, keyless, and quick-change chuck systems. The regular spiral flute and tapered web configuration promote efficient chip evacuation during through-hole and blind-hole operations. It is a practical stock item for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades where drilling sheet metal, unistrut, and structural steel is routine work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiN tip coating extends cutting life at the point without adding cost of a fully coated bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes bit walking on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles steel, aluminum, cast iron, and most non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for consistent chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M standard for jobber-length drill geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit suitable for use in standard hand drills, drill presses, and magnetic drills with a chuck capacity of 5\/16 inch or greater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecure the workpiece before drilling to prevent rotation or shifting. Disconnect power to any drill press before changing bits. Apply cutting fluid or coolant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life, noting this bit does not support coolant-through delivery. Replace the bit if the tip coating is worn through or if the cutting edges show visible chipping, as a dull bit increases heat and reduces hole quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3100 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.19 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3100 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.78 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: Split\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Tip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1500-TT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLE-LINE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C97317\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLE-LINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972185293106,"sku":"C97317","price":43.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6b0fb5b935b85ffe2bdebab8e2c16d1b_98cc765b-dfb4-44d5-b053-bd741f51e61b.jpg?v=1789963924","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cle-line-c97317-5-16-inch-hss-tin-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
