Cleveland C08674 Taper Length Drill Bit 9/64 in Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C08674 is a taper length high speed steel drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metalworking applications. It features a 9/64 inch (0.1406 inch decimal) diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation at drill entry. The spiral flute geometry runs 3 inches in length along a 5-3/8 inch overall length body. A straight shank seats directly into standard drill chucks. This bit is manufactured to ASME B94.11M and DIN 340 standards and is appropriate for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working in production or field environments.

This drill bit is suited for drilling into alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron. The taper length configuration provides additional reach compared to jobber-length bits, making it useful in deep-hole applications or where a longer flute is needed to clear chips effectively. The right-hand spiral cut and coated high speed steel construction support use in both handheld and machine setups at standard drilling speeds appropriate to the workpiece material.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit suitable for use with standard drill presses, lathes, and handheld drills accepting a straight shank. Rated for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, and cast iron workpieces.

Installation Notes

Install and remove drill bits only with the drill or machine powered down and the chuck fully stopped. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck to the full depth of the chuck jaws before operation. Select spindle speed appropriate to the workpiece material and bit diameter per standard machining tables. Eye protection and appropriate chip guards should be in place during drilling operations.
