The bit measures 0.0520 inches in diameter (wire size 55) with an overall length of 1.625 inches and a flute length of 0.625 inches. The 135-degree split point reduces walking and requires no center punch on most surfaces. A web-thinned, parallel web configuration improves chip clearance and lowers thrust during entry. Right-hand cutting with a regular spiral flute makes this a standard choice for machinists and metalworkers drilling small-diameter holes in production and job shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit fits screw machine length applications where a shorter, stiffer tool is preferred over jobber length for improved rigidity and hole accuracy. The cobalt construction handles elevated cutting temperatures without losing hardness, making it well suited for stainless steel, titanium, and other work-hardening materials. It is used in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held power tools wherever a small-diameter, short-length bit is needed. The straight cylindrical shank seats in standard drill chucks without adapters. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 12 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size 55, 0.0520-inch diameter for small-hole precision work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates walking without center punching\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web improves chip evacuation and lowers feed force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (1.625 inches OAL) provides added rigidity over jobber length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute, straight shank fits standard chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks accepting straight cylindrical shanks. Fits within the HERTEL HSCO135 series and suits drilling applications in the 0.0000 to 0.1000 inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or metalworking tradespeople using a drill press, milling machine, or CNC machining center with a suitable chuck. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify runout before drilling into finished workpieces. Cobalt bits can be run at higher surface speeds than standard HSS, but feed rates must be appropriate for the material to avoid tip breakage at this small diameter. Coolant or cutting oil is recommended where the setup permits, even though coolant-through is not available on this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0520 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw\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 Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0000 to 0.1000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSCO135\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241635\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: 74131079\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743105483058,"sku":"74131079","price":43.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2de81bb16737de2dd1e1b6ebb80db59a.jpg?v=1788842729","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-74131079-cobalt-screw-machine-drill-bit-size-55","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
