The bit features a 140-degree notched point and a web-thinned geometry that reduces entry force and improves chip evacuation in difficult-to-machine workpiece materials. With an overall length of 1.5 inches and a flute length of 0.5 inches, this is a compact, short-geometry bit suited for close-quarters drilling operations. The bright uncoated finish and C2 carbide grade make it well matched to applications where lubricity coatings are not required. Machinists, tool and die professionals, and precision fabricators are the primary users of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and handheld precision drilling equipment where small-diameter hole production in hard materials is required. Primary workpiece materials include chrome alloy, heat-treated alloy, nickel alloy, stainless steel, steel, and titanium alloy. The right-hand cutting direction and two-flute straight configuration make it appropriate for both through-hole and blind-hole drilling within its maximum drilling depth of 1.5 inches. It is sold individually and is part of the Hertel Series 470 straight-flute drill line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge 60 diameter (0.0400 inches) with tight tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140-degree notched point reduces thrust force on entry into hard alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned geometry improves chip flow and reduces heat buildup at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC2 carbide grade provides hardness and wear resistance in ferrous and exotic alloy drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suited for use with cutting fluids in standard machining environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-flute straight configuration with right-hand cutting direction for standard drill operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Series 470 straight-flute carbide drill bit for use in precision machining applications involving chrome alloy, heat-treated alloy, nickel alloy, stainless steel, steel, and titanium alloy workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit should be installed by qualified machinists or tooling professionals familiar with small-diameter carbide tooling. Secure the bit firmly in a compatible collet or drill chuck rated for the 0.0400-inch shank diameter before operation. Carbide tooling is brittle and can fracture if subjected to side loading or improper runout — verify chuck and spindle concentricity before use. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain hole quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Notched\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome Alloy, Heat-Treated Alloy, Nickel Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel, Titanium Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 470\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 16691644\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732860928306,"sku":"16691644","price":15.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/94f61c281bc00868fbb060e00904b70b.jpg?v=1788747653","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-16691644-straight-flute-drill-bit-60-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
