Built from cobalt steel and coated with TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride), this bit handles elevated cutting temperatures and extends tool life in demanding production environments. The 135-degree split point reduces walking and decreases the thrust required to start a hole, eliminating the need for a center punch in most applications. At 2.25 inches overall length, the stub-length body provides added rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, reducing deflection in short-reach drilling tasks. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians typically select this bit for metal fabrication, repair, and precision drilling work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and other hard materials where standard high-speed steel bits wear prematurely. The screw machine (stub) length format is a standard choice for drill press work, CNC turret lathes, screw machines, and manual machining operations where a shorter, stiffer bit improves hole accuracy. The wire gauge Size 8 designation corresponds to a decimal diameter of 0.1990 inches, placing it in common use for tapping preparation, clearance holes, and close-tolerance through-holes in metal workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt steel construction resists heat and wear when drilling hard and abrasive metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating provides additional heat resistance and extends cutting edge life at high spindle speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes walking without center punching\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web configuration lowers cutting resistance and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without special toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length body increases rigidity and reduces deflection 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 standard drill chucks and toolholders accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the wire gauge size range of 0.1500 to 0.2000 inches decimal diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this drill bit is performed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, or qualified maintenance personnel. Secure the straight shank fully into the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Always power down and de-energize the spindle before changing bits.
