It carries a No. 34 wire gauge size, which corresponds to a decimal diameter of 0.111 inches. The 135-degree split-point geometry reduces walking on entry and lowers the thrust force required to penetrate hard substrates. At 1.875 inches overall length, the stub-length format provides increased rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, making it well-suited for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and screw machine operations where deflection must be minimized. The bright, uncoated finish makes edge condition easy to inspect after resharpening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for production and maintenance machining environments. It is used when drilling cast iron, nickel alloys, stainless steel, titanium alloys, and tool steel — materials that demand carbide rather than high-speed steel. The two-flute, slow-spiral design aids chip evacuation in these short, tough-chip materials. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians working in industrial or production settings are the primary users. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly in standard drill chucks and collet holders without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for ferrous and exotic alloy drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates center-punching on most materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlow-spiral flute geometry promotes chip breaking and clearance in short-chip materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub screw machine length of 1.875 inches overall maximizes rigidity and reduces deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish allows straightforward visual inspection of cutting edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet systems without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement screw machine drill bit suitable for standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting a straight cylindrical shank within the 0.100 to 0.150 inch decimal inch drill bit size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with carbide tooling. Ensure the drill chuck or collet is clean and properly torqued before operation, as solid carbide is brittle and sensitive to runout. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing or inspecting tooling per applicable shop safety procedures. Coolant-through capability is not available on this bit, so adequate flood or mist coolant should be directed at the cutting zone when drilling stainless steel, titanium, or nickel alloys to prevent heat buildup and premature edge failure.\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. 34\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.111 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Nickel Alloy, Stainless Steel, Titanium Alloy, Tool Steel\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: 16704769\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51753723396402,"sku":"16704769","price":24.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8b934eea0ae1290e2ecc949516175df9.jpg?v=1788940024","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-16704769-screw-machine-drill-bit-no-34-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
