Built from C2-grade solid carbide with a bright, uncoated finish, it features a 140-degree notched point and a web-thinned design that reduces thrust and improves chip flow at entry. With two right-hand cutting flutes and a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches, this bit is engineered for consistent, close-tolerance holes in demanding workpiece materials. It is suited for machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals who require reliable performance in hard or abrasive stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for use on chrome alloy, heat-treated alloy, nickel alloy, stainless steel, steel, and titanium alloy materials. It fits typical application scenarios in precision machining, aerospace component work, industrial maintenance, and fabrication where tight hole tolerances and clean entry geometry are required. The 0.1730-inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, allowing direct chuck mounting in standard drill chucks, CNC machining centers, or drill presses without adapter sleeves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid C2-grade carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in alloy and stainless steel materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140-degree notched point reduces walking and improves centering at drill entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned geometry lowers axial thrust and eases chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy without coating buildup in tight-tolerance holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches for close-fit hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, two-flute straight configuration for use in standard rotating spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use straight-flute carbide drill bit for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual mills accepting a 0.1730-inch shank diameter.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Verify chuck or collet runout is within tolerance before use, as excessive runout accelerates carbide wear and can cause premature breakage. Carbide bits are brittle and should not be used in handheld drills or applications with significant lateral loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Notched\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome Alloy, Heat-Treated Alloy, Nickel Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel, Titanium Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: 83246504\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755326538034,"sku":"83246504","price":40.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aa6244f55e879c023d9297e11f8a401f.jpg?v=1788953697","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-83246504-straight-flute-drill-bit-no-17-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
