Cleveland C04416 Screw Machine Drill Bit Wire 36 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C04416 is a screw machine length (stub length) drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in production and maintenance environments. Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it carries a wire gauge size of 36, equal to 0.1065 inches in diameter. The 118-degree standard point angle delivers reliable penetration across a broad range of materials. At 1-13/16 inches overall length with a 13/16-inch flute length, the shortened body provides added rigidity and reduced deflection compared to jobber-length bits, making it well suited for CNC machines, drill presses, and screw machine operations.

This bit is intended for drilling into alloy steel and aluminum in both light manufacturing and general shop applications. The right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole operations. The straight-cylindrical shank, measuring 0.1065 inches in diameter with a 1-inch shank length, seats directly into standard drill chucks and collet holders without adapter sleeves. The short body length reduces overhang and improves hole location accuracy in tight setups. Tool performance is rated general purpose, making it a reliable everyday option for machinists, tool-and-die shops, and maintenance technicians.

Key Features

• Wire size 36 (0.1065 inches) with a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches for consistent hole sizing
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned geometry for reduced thrust and easier starting
• High-speed steel construction suitable for alloy steel and aluminum workpieces
• Screw machine (short) length at 1-13/16 inches overall for increased rigidity and reduced deflection
• Right-hand cut with 2 regular spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation
• Bright, uncoated finish — compatible with cutting fluids and coolants applied externally
• Meets ASME B94.11M standards for drill bit geometry and tolerances

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose screw machine length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks, collet holders, and screw machine spindles accepting a 0.1065-inch straight-cylindrical shank. Suitable for alloy steel and aluminum workpieces in production drilling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with rotary cutting tools. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before operation and confirm runout is within acceptable limits. Always bring the spindle to a complete stop before changing bits or clearing chips. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant to extend tool life and maintain hole quality when drilling alloy steel.
