Screw machine length bits are shorter than jobber-length bits, which reduces deflection and improves rigidity in drill press, turret lathe, and screw machine applications. The right-hand cut and general-purpose grade make this bit a reliable choice for production drilling in steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. Overall length is 2.8125 inches with a flute length of 1.625 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose production environments where a compact, rigid tool is preferred over a standard jobber-length bit. Typical applications include drilling in CNC turret lathes, automatic screw machines, drill presses, and benchtop setups requiring consistent hole sizing in the 0.300 to 0.350 inch decimal range. It is sized for Letter N work where a close-tolerance hole is required before reaming or tapping operations. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this type of bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetter N size — 0.3020 inch decimal equivalent for consistent hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree drill point angle suited for general-purpose drilling across common metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability in production drilling cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection for wear and damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body reduces deflection and increases rigidity versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut compatible with standard drill press and machine tool spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose screw machine length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting shanks in the Letter N size range (0.300 to 0.350 inch decimal inch range).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall and remove this bit with the machine fully powered down and the spindle at a complete stop. Secure the shank firmly in a drill chuck or collet to the manufacturer-recommended engagement depth before operation. Inspect the cutting edges and flutes for wear or damage before each use; a dull or chipped bit should be resharpened or replaced before drilling. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine tool operating procedures when setting speeds and feeds for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.8125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3000 to 0.3500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 89322077\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737108054322,"sku":"89322077","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c36229141496e26816c5661ca116d54c.jpg?v=1788784349","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-89322077-drill-bit-letter-n-118-degree-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
