Manufactured from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and finished with a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, this bit delivers extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials. It features a 5\/16 inch diameter, a 135-degree split point for fast, self-centering starts without a center punch, and a parabolic flute geometry that aggressively evacuates chips to prevent packing and heat buildup. The straight shank seats in standard drill chucks without adapters, and the web-thinned, tapered web construction reduces cutting force in tough materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for metalworking and fabrication environments where standard jobber-length bits lack the reach needed for deeper holes. The taper length body gives additional clearance for through-holes in thicker stock. Rated for drilling aluminum, brass, carbon steel, cast iron, nickel alloy, stainless steel, tool steel, and plastic, the C16901 covers a broad range of materials encountered in machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and commercial construction trade work. It meets ASME B94.11M, DIN 340, and DIN 338 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS construction for heat and wear resistance in hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium Nitride (TiN) coating extends cutting edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point enables self-centering starts and reduces walking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic flute geometry promotes fast chip evacuation in deep-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web lowers thrust requirements in difficult materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, straight shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in any standard drill chuck accepting a 5\/16 inch straight shank.

Secure the straight shank fully in the chuck and confirm it is centered before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling steel and stainless to manage heat, especially at depth. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use and replace the bit if the point shows chipping or rounding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2575T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint 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: M42 Cobalt HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\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: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M, DIN 340, DIN 338\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8 pounds\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: C16901\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51702218064178,"sku":"C16901","price":77.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/eba04d07aa6ffc125ddd7eb3aa918bfc_28b79797-8913-4f47-bcd2-f63a5c6aab39.jpg?v=1788410027","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c16901-5-16-in-cobalt-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
