Built from M35 cobalt high-speed steel, this bit delivers the heat resistance needed to cut through stainless steel, titanium alloy, heat-treatable alloyed steels, and hardened materials without premature edge failure. At 0.2188 inches (7\/32 inch) in diameter and 2.375 inches overall length, it fits standard drill chucks and magnetic-base drills. The 135-degree split point self-centers on contact, reducing the need for a center punch and minimizing walking on hard surfaces. An oxide straw finish provides added lubricity and corrosion resistance during cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for metalworking professionals, maintenance machinists, pipefitters, and fabricators who regularly work with difficult-to-machine alloys. The screw machine length — shorter than jobber length — provides increased rigidity and reduced deflection, making it a reliable choice for production drilling, repair work, and close-quarter applications where control and accuracy matter. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, CNC machines, hand drills, and magnetic-base drill setups where a compact, stiff bit profile is preferred over a longer jobber-style bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM35 cobalt construction retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point self-centers and reduces thrust force on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body (2.375 inches overall) increases rigidity and reduces deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide straw finish enhances lubricity and provides light corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with 1.25-inch flute length promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design — suitable for dry cutting or external coolant application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for drilling hardened materials, heat-treatable alloyed steels, stainless steel, and titanium alloy.

Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement and bit breakage. Always wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the drill chuck is properly tightened before operation. When cutting stainless steel or titanium, use a cutting fluid or coolant applied externally to extend tool life and improve cut quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2188 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches (2-3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches (1-1\/4 inch)\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M35)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide Straw\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: Hardened Materials, Heat-Treatable Alloyed Steels, Stainless Steel, Titanium Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: 42189\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755812258098,"sku":"42189","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/680befb7731a9c33d5182b39ec824f59.jpg?v=1788959995","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-42189-screw-machine-drill-bit-7-32-cobalt-m35","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
