Guhring 9024640011800 Jobber Drill Bit No.56 Carbide

Product Description

The GUHRING 9024640011800 is a solid carbide jobber length drill bit in wire gauge size No. 56, equivalent to 0.0465 inches in diameter. It carries a FIREX coating for extended tool life and reduced heat buildup during cutting operations. The bit features a 118-degree faceted point angle, a right-hand spiral flute, and a straight-cylindrical shank. Overall length is 1.42 inches (36.00 mm), with a flute length of 0.55 inches (14.00 mm). This is a general-purpose drill bit intended for use by machinists, tool and die technicians, and precision fabricators working with small-diameter holes.

The 9024640011800 is rated for primary use in aluminum and other non-ferrous materials classified under workpiece material code N. Its 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio suits standard drilling depths in jobber-length applications. Maximum drilling depth is 0.481 inches (12.23 mm). The web-thinned point reduces thrust requirements and improves chip evacuation. It fits standard collet and drill chuck setups that accept a 1.18 mm straight shank. This bit is appropriate for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual operations requiring close-tolerance small-diameter holes.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size No. 56 at 0.0465 inch diameter for precision small-hole work
• FIREX coating reduces friction and extends service life in non-ferrous materials
• 118-degree faceted point for accurate entry and reduced walking
• Web-thinned construction lowers thrust requirements and improves chip flow
• Solid carbide construction in material grade K40 for rigidity in small diameters
• Right-hand cut with regular spiral flute geometry suits general-purpose drilling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for setups requiring a No. 56 wire gauge jobber drill bit with a 1.18 mm straight-cylindrical shank, compatible with collet chucks and drill chucks sized to accept that shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians familiar with small-diameter carbide tooling. Secure the shank fully in the collet or chuck before operation to prevent runout damage to the bit. Carbide is brittle at small diameters and should not be subjected to side loads or used in setups with excessive vibration. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety practices when setting spindle speed and feed rate for the workpiece material.
