The bit measures 7\/32 inch (0.2188 inch decimal) in diameter with a 3-1\/4 inch overall length and a 2-inch flute length. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking at entry, eliminating the need for a center punch on most surfaces. A flatted shank provides positive drive retention in standard three-jaw chucks. Right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole operations. This is a shop-grade tool suited for use by machinists, HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers working with steel and cast iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C23840 is rated for use in cast iron and steel workpieces, covering the most common materials encountered in mechanical and trade work. The mechanics drill bit length is shorter than a jobber-length bit, giving the user more control and rigidity when drilling in tight spaces or when using a hand drill rather than a drill press. The Series 1875R designation identifies the product line within the CLEVELAND catalog. Single-piece packaging makes this suitable for adding individual bits to a kit or replacing a single worn size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces walking and cutting pressure at drill entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction handles cast iron and steel without coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length (3-1\/4 inch OAL) provides rigidity and control over jobber-length alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlatted shank prevents slipping in standard three-jaw chuck configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute design for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M standards for drill bit geometry and tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard three-jaw keyed or keyless drill chucks.

Secure the workpiece to prevent rotation before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling steel to extend bit life and maintain cut quality. Inspect the bit for wear or chipping before each use and replace when the cutting edges show visible dullness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/32 inch (0.2188 inch)\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 Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flatted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2188 inch (5.56 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1875R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\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: C23840\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695237857586,"sku":"C23840","price":52.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/000759bd77ee6238a620dc7e29e4e3f4_f1733852-db2e-4293-b251-33e769ba6b89.jpg?v=1788332973","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c23840-7-32-in-mechanics-drill-bit-hss-split-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
