The bit measures 0.1990 inches in diameter, corresponding to wire gauge size 8, with a 3.625-inch flute length and a 6-inch overall length. The spiral flute geometry and web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduce thrust and improve chip evacuation. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. Licensed machinists, maintenance mechanics, and tool-room technicians install and use this bit in production and field environments where heat and wear resistance are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is designed for drilling alloy steel and stainless steel, materials that generate high cutting temperatures and require a substrate and coating that maintain hardness under heat. The TiAlN coating provides thermal resistance well beyond standard HSS or uncoated cobalt bits, making it suitable for dry or minimal-lubrication drilling conditions. Right-hand cut with a regular spiral type, it is appropriate for standard drill press, CNC, or hand-held drill motor use in metal fabrication, maintenance, and manufacturing settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 8, 0.1990-inch diameter for precise sizing in metal drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces walking and lowers thrust on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt substrate retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating extends tool life in alloy steel and stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces cutting resistance and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.625-inch flute length and 6-inch overall length provide reach beyond standard jobber geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in alloy steel and stainless steel applications. Fits standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting straight cylindrical shanks at 0.1990-inch diameter.

Ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement during drilling. When drilling stainless or alloy steel, use appropriate cutting fluid or mist coolant unless operating in a confirmed dry-cut application matched to the TiAlN coating. Inspect the cutting edge before each use and remove from service if chipping or wear is observed at the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1990 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: Tapered Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.44 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: 74146937\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739864891698,"sku":"74146937","price":28.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b385d5074c8ea129bed28e1bd8e88e3a.jpg?v=1788819803","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-74146937-taper-length-drill-bit-size-8-cobalt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
