It carries a Number 5 wire gauge size, equivalent to 0.2055 inches (5.22 mm) in diameter, with a 118-degree drill point angle that produces clean entry without excessive thrust. The fast spiral flute geometry and 35-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation, keeping the cutting zone clear during high-cycle drilling. At 1.5 inches overall length with a 0.75-inch flute, this bit is sized for shallow, accurate holes in thin materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel. Its heavy-duty grade and bright polished finish make it suitable for production environments where consistent hole quality matters. Typical applications include PCB fabrication shops, precision machine shops, and tool rooms where wire-gauge sizing is required. The tapered web configuration adds rigidity at the core, reducing deflection during entry into harder workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in abrasive and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree drill point angle for accurate, low-thrust entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFast spiral flute with 35-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web configuration provides core rigidity and reduces bit deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright polished finish minimizes friction and built-up edge on non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty grade rated for cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks and CNC drilling spindles accepting a 0.2055-inch (5.22 mm) shank diameter.

Solid carbide bits are brittle and should not be subjected to side loading or flex; always ensure the workpiece is rigidly fixtured before drilling. Inspect the cutting edges before each use, as carbide chipping is not always visible to the naked eye. Follow all applicable shop safety protocols for rotating cutting tools, including appropriate chip guarding and eye protection.\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: Number 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2055 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.22 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2055 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.22 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches (19.05 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches (38.10 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to +0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metals, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright Polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 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: 30020550\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728378921266,"sku":"30020550","price":42.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/50be5b5b99dc9c33a79ae42bb408b697.jpg?v=1788690779","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-30020550-circuit-board-drill-bit-no-5-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
