Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel, it handles heat and wear better than standard HSS bits, making it the right choice for alloy steels, aluminum, and other tough materials. The 135-degree split point starts on contact without a center punch and reduces walking on smooth or curved surfaces. At 2.25 inches overall length, the stub-length body provides greater rigidity and reduced deflection compared to jobber-length equivalents. This bit is sold and used by machinists, tool-and-die techs, and maintenance professionals who need reliable performance in screw machine and drill press setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C14618 is a screw machine length bit suited for production drilling, CNC work, manual drill press operations, and hand-held drilling in tight clearance situations. Its short overall length minimizes runout and chatter. Primary workpiece materials listed by the manufacturer include alloy steel and aluminum. The regular spiral with parallel web and web-thinned geometry optimizes chip evacuation and reduces thrust load, which is particularly useful in high-cycle production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point for self-centering starts and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel web geometry improves chip flow and reduces heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body provides rigidity and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M and DIN 1897 dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a heavy-duty screw machine length bit for use in drill presses, screw machines, CNC machining centers, and standard drill chucks accepting a 0.1990-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the chuck is secured before seating or removing the bit. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit, so external cutting fluid or mist coolant should be applied when drilling hard alloys to preserve edge life. Follow shop-specific speeds and feeds for cobalt tooling at the 0.1990-inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1990 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1990 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 Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter 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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: C14618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51719138246962,"sku":"C14618","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cbd483f509159c73c385b5e08cfe79a7.jpg?v=1788557689","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c14618-screw-machine-drill-bit-8-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
