Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit measures 0.1562 inches (5\/32 inch) in diameter and delivers a 118-degree standard point angle for reliable center-starting on most common workpiece materials. At 2-1\/16 inches overall length with a 1-inch flute length, the stub-body design reduces deflection and improves rigidity compared to jobber-length bits. Machinists, tool and die workers, and maintenance technicians install this type of bit in drill presses, CNC machines, and hand drills for repetitive close-tolerance hole work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis screw machine length drill bit suits residential and commercial maintenance, light fabrication, and production drilling operations where a compact bit length is required. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly into standard chucks without adapters. The 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio and two-flute spiral design provide efficient chip evacuation on steel, aluminum, and similar materials. It is a single-piece, per-unit offering appropriate for bench stock or individual replacement in a tool kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/32 inch (0.1562 inch) diameter fits standard fractional drill charts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling on ferrous and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide finish for corrosion resistance and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length body minimizes deflection in short-reach drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, two-flute spiral design promotes consistent chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw and keyless chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement screw machine length drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.1500 to 0.2000 inch diameter range per ANSI specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists, tool and die technicians, or maintenance trades using a drill press, lathe, or hand drill with a compatible chuck. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify concentricity before drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; apply cutting fluid externally when drilling harder materials to extend tool life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1562 inches\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: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 61698395\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727482716466,"sku":"61698395","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3bb5b8e1c729eb71c30d96dcbe2d7f9e.jpg?v=1788678402","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-61698395-screw-machine-drill-bit-5-32-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
