Guhring 9005010038600 Taper Length Drill Bit 0.1520 in

Product Description

The GUHRING 9005010038600 is a taper length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose hole-making in aluminum alloy and steel. Built from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it cuts right-hand with a parabolic flute geometry and a web-thinned, parallel-web point. The 130-degree split point reduces walking and cutting force at entry. At 0.1520 inches in diameter with a 10xD flute-to-diameter ratio, this bit handles deeper holes with consistent chip evacuation. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical trades, as well as machine shops and fabricators, will find it well-suited to production and maintenance drilling applications.

This drill bit is sized to wire gauge #24 (0.1520 inches) and conforms to DIN 340 for taper length geometry. The cylindrical, non-threaded shank seats directly in standard drill chucks. With a flute length of 3.0625 inches and an overall length of 4.6875 inches, it reaches deeper bores than a jobber-length bit of the same diameter. Maximum drilling depth is rated at 2.843 inches. Applications include through-hole drilling in sheet metal, structural steel, and aluminum plate in both shop and field settings.

Key Features

• Parabolic flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in deep-hole drilling
• Web-thinned parallel web reduces thrust force and improves point centering
• 130-degree point angle suits both steel and aluminum alloy workpieces
• Taper length body provides extra reach over standard jobber drills
• Bright, uncoated HSS construction allows easy resharpening in the field
• Conforms to DIN 340 specification for consistent geometry and tolerancing

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 340 taper length drill bit with a 0.1520-inch cylindrical shank; fits any standard drill chuck or collet accepting that shank diameter. Rated for use in aluminum alloy and steel per manufacturer specification.

Installation Notes

Secure the cylindrical shank fully in the chuck before drilling and confirm runout is within acceptable limits before cutting. Power down or de-energize any machine tool and lock out before changing bits. Use cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain hole tolerance. Diameter tolerance is +0.000 to -0.018 mm, so verify fit requirements before drilling final-size holes in close-tolerance applications.
