Built from cobalt high-speed steel, it retains hardness at elevated temperatures where standard HSS bits would soften and fail. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking at entry and lowers thrust force needed to start the cut, making it well suited for production drilling in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other ferrous alloys. At 2-11\/16 inches overall length with a 1-1\/2 inch flute length, the stubby screw machine profile provides rigidity and minimizes deflection in close-clearance setups. The straight shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is used primarily in production machining, job shop, and maintenance environments where drilling ferrous metals, alloy steels, and work-hardening stainless is routine. Its web-thinned parallel web reduces chisel edge contact and improves chip evacuation in blind holes. Machinists, tool-and-die techs, and maintenance mechanics reach for screw machine length bits when drilling in drill presses, CNC machining centers, or hand-held industrial drills where stub-length rigidity matters more than reach. The 0.2720 inch decimal diameter corresponds to Letter I sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for heat resistance in hard and work-hardening metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walk and entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web improves chip flow and reduces cutting resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length profile maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting with regular spiral flute geometry for standard through and blind hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks directly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use screw machine length drill bit for Letter I diameter applications in standard drill chucks accepting a straight cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance mechanics familiar with rotating cutting tool safety. Ensure the drill chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before operation. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use and replace the bit if damage is found. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the material being drilled to extend tool life and improve hole quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2720 inches\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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSCO135\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size Range (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 to 0.3000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241635\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.41 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: 74131202\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740759327026,"sku":"74131202","price":15.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4817d2bc3888423d8efc9882b25e4833.jpg?v=1788827253","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-74131202-cobalt-drill-bit-letter-i-135-deg","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
