Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit measures 7\/64 inches in diameter (0.1094 inches decimal) and features a 118-degree standard point angle for reliable centering and penetration. At 1-13\/16 inches overall length, the stub-style body provides extra rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, reducing deflection and improving hole accuracy in short-reach applications. Two spiral flutes with a regular helix evacuate chips efficiently. Licensed trades and machining professionals rely on this geometry for production drilling where rigidity and repeatability matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for light-duty production and maintenance drilling tasks across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general metalworking applications. The screw machine length profile makes it a practical choice for drill press work, CNC setups, and hand-drill applications where a shorter bit body improves control. The right-hand cut and straight cylindrical shank are compatible with standard drill chucks in 3-jaw and keyed configurations. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit, so it is best used with external cutting fluid when drilling ferrous materials at higher cycle counts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide coating for corrosion resistance and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for accurate starting on flat surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body (1-13\/16 inches OAL) provides greater rigidity than jobber-length equivalents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo spiral flutes with regular helix for effective chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral purpose grade covers a decimal inch range of 0.1000 to 0.1500 inch applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for any standard drill chuck accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 7\/64 inch diameter class.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed by a machinist, maintenance technician, or licensed trade professional using a keyed or keyless drill chuck. Secure the straight shank fully in the chuck before operation and confirm there is no runout before drilling. Apply cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend tool life and improve hole finish. Replace the bit if the cutting edge shows visible chipping or if thrust force increases noticeably during normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/64 inches (0.1094 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-13\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches x 0.5 inches x 0.5 inches\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: 61698726\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748339777842,"sku":"61698726","price":43.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6d5af4b840610e36741367b37541bd3f.jpg?v=1788892668","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-61698726-screw-machine-drill-bit-7-64-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
