Built to the HSCO135 series standard, it features a 45\/64 inch (0.7031 inch decimal) diameter with a 135-degree split point geometry for fast, accurate starts without a center punch. The web-thinned construction reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. At 4-3\/4 inches overall length with a 3-inch flute, this stub-length bit offers rigidity in drill presses, lathes, and CNC setups. A right-hand spiral with regular flute form handles chip flow in both through-hole and blind-hole applications. The straw finish indicates heat treatment consistent with heavy-duty cobalt tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is engineered for machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians drilling stainless steel, tough alloys, and other work-hardening materials. Screw machine length bits are the standard choice where rigidity matters more than reach — common in production drilling, fixture work, and repair-shop applications. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly in drill chucks, collets, or keyless chucks without adapters. Two flutes keep the geometry simple and effective for general metal drilling at this diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point for self-centering entry and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel-web construction lowers feed force in hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt (HSS-Co) tool material handles stainless steel and tough alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length provides maximum rigidity over standard jobber bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for reliable chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collets without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitute for cobalt screw machine drill bits of 45\/64 inch diameter in production and maintenance drilling applications on stainless steel and tough alloy workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with metal-cutting operations. Ensure the drill press, lathe, or CNC spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the bit from the chuck. Secure the straight shank firmly to the rated chuck capacity to prevent slippage under the torque loads typical of cobalt tooling at this diameter. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant rated for stainless steel when drilling work-hardening alloys to extend tool life and maintain hole quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45\/64 inches (0.7031 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7031 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 (HSS-Co)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Tough Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HSCO135\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 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: 83240531\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728017588530,"sku":"83240531","price":93.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-83240531-cobalt-screw-machine-drill-bit-45-64-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
