Cleveland C09672 Extra Length Drill Bit 0.3594 in Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C09672 is an extra length, high-speed steel drill bit engineered for deeper drilling and long-reach drilling applications. It features a 0.3594-inch diameter with a standard 118-degree point angle and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces thrust and improves chip clearance at the cutting edge. The spiral flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation over the 5.5-inch flute length. With an 8-inch overall length, this bit reaches deeper into workpieces than standard-length equivalents. The oxide finish provides a baseline level of surface protection. Right-hand cutting direction and a straight-cylindrical shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks. Designed for use by machinists, maintenance techs, and fabricators working in metal removal applications.

This drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling into cast iron and steel in situations where standard-length bits cannot reach or where a longer reach is required to clear fixturing, deep cavities, or stacked material. Series 950E is a general-purpose extra-length line, appropriate for both manual and machine-fed drilling operations on milling machines, drill presses, and handheld power tools with adequate chuck capacity. It is not intended for coolant-through applications.

Key Features

• 0.3594-inch diameter with a tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches for precise hole sizing
• 8-inch overall length and 5.5-inch flute length for deep-reach and long-reach drilling
• 118-degree standard point angle suitable for general-purpose metal drilling
• Web-thinned, tapered web reduces cutting resistance and improves bit life in cast iron and steel
• High-speed steel construction with oxide finish for baseline surface protection
• Right-hand spiral flute promotes chip evacuation; straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose extra-length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks on drill presses, milling machines, and handheld power tools. Primary workpiece materials are cast iron and steel as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this bit should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance personnel familiar with metal drilling operations. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a properly sized drill chuck before operation. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing bits. Use appropriate speeds and feeds for the workpiece material to avoid overheating the cutting edge, and apply cutting fluid when drilling steel to extend bit life.
