Built from high-speed steel (HSS), it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on contact and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The flatted shank provides a secure grip in standard three-jaw chucks, minimizing slippage under torque. At 2-3\/4 inches overall length with a 1.69-inch flute length, this is a compact, stub-style bit suited for tight-clearance drilling in equipment and assemblies. Right-hand cut with spiral flutes clears chips efficiently during the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is used in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work where controlled metal drilling is required. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron and steel, making it appropriate for drilling into equipment housings, brackets, strut, and structural steel components. The mechanics length is shorter than a jobber bit, offering added rigidity and reduced deflection in hand-held drills and drill presses. It meets ASME B94.11M standards and suits professionals who need a reliable, single-piece bit for daily service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and eliminates the need for center punching on most metal surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides heat resistance and durability in ferrous metal drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlatted shank locks securely in three-jaw chucks and prevents rotation under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics (stub) length adds rigidity and reduces deflection compared to jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips from the hole during drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for general-purpose drilling in cast iron and steel.
