Built from cobalt steel and coated with TiAlN (Titanium Aluminum Nitride), it delivers extended tool life in demanding applications including stainless steel, cast iron, and hardened alloys. The 135-degree split point self-centers on entry, reducing the need for a center punch and minimizing walking on smooth or curved surfaces. At 1-15\/16 inches overall length with a 15\/16-inch flute, this stub-length geometry provides rigidity and reduces deflection in short-reach setups. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for production machining environments, maintenance shops, and fabrication operations where a Number 28 wire gauge diameter (0.1405 inches) is required. It excels in CNC drilling centers, drill presses, and handheld drills where bit rigidity and heat resistance are priorities. The screw machine length format is a common choice for close-tolerance work in metalworking and mechanical assembly applications. A licensed machinist or journeyman maintenance tech would typically specify this bit for repetitive hole operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt steel construction resists heat buildup during extended drilling cycles in hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point provides self-centering entry and reduced thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel web configuration improves chip evacuation and reduces torque demand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub screw machine length (1-15\/16 inches OAL) maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with straight-cylindrical shank for universal chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling choice for any drill press, CNC machining center, or handheld drill accepting a straight-cylindrical shank bit in the Number 28 wire gauge size (0.1405 inches decimal equivalent).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of drill bits should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician. Ensure the drilling machine is fully powered down and locked out before changing tooling. Inspect the chuck or collet for wear before seating the shank, and tighten securely to prevent slippage under load. Do not exceed the drill press or machine spindle speed recommendations for the material being drilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1405 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-15\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/16 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\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: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241635\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: 74132259\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743699763506,"sku":"74132259","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4d7fa4ceaa211c81fa7f43ed36b591f5.jpg?v=1788849318","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-74132259-screw-machine-drill-bit-size-28-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
