Manufactured from high-speed steel with an oxide coating, this bit measures 1.75 inches in overall length with a 0.75-inch flute length, making it well-suited for short-reach, high-production drilling work. The standard 118-degree point angle and right-hand spiral flutes allow clean entry and efficient chip evacuation. Weighing 0.13 pounds, this compact bit is built for use in drill presses, screw machines, and CNC setups where stub-length tooling is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is sized at wire gauge 44, with a decimal diameter of 0.0860 inches. It fits standard straight-cylindrical shank chucks and is rated for general-purpose drilling. Screw machine length bits are commonly used in production machining environments where rigidity and reduced deflection matter more than reach. This bit is appropriate for machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and production floor operators working in light metal and ferrous applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 44 with a decimal diameter of 0.0860 inches for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry and centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide coating for surface protection and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length design provides added rigidity and reduced deflection versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute regular spiral with straight-cylindrical shank for universal chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI specification designation ensures dimensional conformance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production-use screw machine length drill bit for standard straight-cylindrical shank chucks accepting tooling at 0.0860 inches in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician familiar with screw machines, drill presses, or CNC equipment. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before changing tooling. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before initiating a cut. Do not exceed the recommended feed and speed parameters for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 inches\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\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\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\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: 61699708\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743931498802,"sku":"61699708","price":40.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f0f5ece3e1d915f9e25468b566919a78.jpg?v=1788851491","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-61699708-screw-machine-drill-bit-wire-44-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
