Manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide coating, the bit measures 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch decimal) in diameter and delivers consistent performance across a wide range of materials. The 118-degree standard point angle suits everyday drilling applications, while the web-thinned, tapered web construction reduces thrust requirements at the cutting tip. This bit is sized and balanced for use in standard drill chucks by maintenance technicians, fabricators, and trade professionals who need a reliable, everyday cutting tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuited for light fabrication, HVAC bracket work, electrical rough-in, plumbing support installations, and general maintenance drilling tasks. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks found on corded and cordless drill drivers, drill presses, and magnetic base drills. The 17\/64 inch diameter falls within the common 0.2500 to 0.3000 inch range frequently used for clearance holes, pilot holes, and anchor preparation. This is a single-piece unit sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) diameter with straight-cylindrical shank for universal chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose cutting across multiple materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides durability under moderate heat and cutting loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and provides basic corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web lowers required thrust force at drill entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute design with regular spiral type for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any standard three-jaw drill chuck accepting a 17\/64 inch straight-cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the bit securely in a calibrated drill chuck and verify the shank is fully seated before operation. Secure the workpiece with a clamp or vise before drilling to prevent movement. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup.
