Built from M42 cobalt tool steel with a coated finish, it offers increased heat and wear resistance compared to standard high-speed steel bits. The bit carries a wire size 16 designation with a decimal diameter of 0.1770 inches and an overall length of 2-3\/16 inches. The 135-degree split point reduces walking on contact and allows drilling to begin without a center punch in most applications. Right-hand cut geometry and a regular spiral flute pattern support efficient chip evacuation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling alloy steel and aluminum in screw machine, production, and maintenance shop applications. Its screw machine length profile — shorter than a jobber bit — provides added rigidity in tight clearance setups and chuck-heavy operations. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly in standard drill chucks without adapters. Machinists, tool room technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals working in metal fabrication and production drilling applications will find this bit appropriate for repetitive, close-tolerance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt tool steel construction for elevated heat resistance in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates the need for center-punching on most surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel web configuration promotes chip clearance and reduces cutting resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body adds rigidity over jobber-length bits in confined setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance held to +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches for consistent fit in close-tolerance holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ASME B94.11M and DIN 1897 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct addition for production and maintenance drilling setups requiring a wire size 16 screw machine length bit in cobalt tool steel.

Ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is tightened securely before operation. Follow facility lockout\/tagout procedures before changing bits on powered equipment. Do not exceed the recommended cutting speed for the workpiece material, and use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling alloy steel to extend tool life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecimal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1770 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1770 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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: Parallel, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0007 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2133\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M, DIN 1897 (ANSI, DIN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C14603\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695257878834,"sku":"C14603","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/58d84b9a92239fbf1853d4e3e3ae0c2a.jpg?v=1788333265","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c14603-cobalt-screw-machine-drill-bit-wire-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
