Built to NAS 965 specification, this No. 12 wire gauge bit measures 0.1890 inches in diameter with a 135-degree split point that self-centers on contact, reducing the need for a center punch. The oxide finish provides added surface hardness and corrosion resistance. The 1\/4-28 threaded shank is sized for quick-change drill adapters commonly used in aerospace and precision metalworking applications. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical contractors reach for cobalt bits when drilling stainless steel flanges, hardened brackets, or structural steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for production drilling in ferrous metals, stainless steel, titanium alloys, and other high-tensile strength materials. The long-series geometry with a 1-1\/8 inch flute length and 2-1\/8 inch overall length gives additional reach for deeper hole applications. The right-hand spiral flute with regular helix promotes chip evacuation in interrupted cuts and through-hole drilling. Trade professionals using quick-change threaded shank systems will find this bit a direct fit for standard 1\/4-28 threaded adapters used in handheld and drill-press setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction with oxide coating resists heat buildup and wear in high-tensile materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point self-centers and reduces thrust force compared to conventional 118-degree points\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 threaded shank compatible with quick-change threaded shank adapter systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web design reduces cutting resistance and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-series geometry provides extended reach for deeper drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt to NAS 965 specification for consistent dimensional and performance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with quick-change drill systems and adapters accepting a 1\/4-28 threaded shank.

Always power down the drill and confirm the bit is fully seated and locked in the threaded adapter before beginning a cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel or hardened alloys to extend bit life and manage heat. Wear appropriate PPE including safety glasses and gloves when handling and operating drill bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1890 inches\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Tensile Strength Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 965\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\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: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 04618906\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734266478898,"sku":"04618906","price":15.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7e068ab240a46e908a1c77c60fa9816d.jpg?v=1788761816","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-04618906-cobalt-drill-bit-no-12-135-split-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
