Built to letter size S, the bit cuts a 0.3480-inch diameter hole and features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and allows for faster penetration without a center punch. A TiAlN coating increases surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in demanding production and maintenance environments. The shorter-than-standard screw machine length provides added rigidity, making this bit a practical choice for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machines where chatter and deflection need to be minimized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other hard ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both production shop and field maintenance settings. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters. The right-hand spiral flute efficiently evacuates chips during through-hole and blind-hole drilling. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance mechanics working in industrial or commercial environments are the typical end users for this type of tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter S size cutting diameter of 0.3480 inches for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates walk on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction maintains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web reduces cutting resistance and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length overall provides extra rigidity versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use screw machine drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.3000 to 0.3500 inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed and replaced by machinists or maintenance mechanics using standard drill chuck tooling. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing bits. Verify chuck jaw condition and confirm the shank is fully seated and tightened before operation.
