It accepts a No. 3 Morse Taper (3MT) shank, making it compatible with drill presses and lathes equipped with a matching taper socket or sleeve. The cutting end features a 118-degree point angle, a standard geometry suited to a wide range of workpiece materials. The bit is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide finish that provides basic corrosion resistance and reduces friction during the cut. Overall length is 11 inches, with a flute length of 6.375 inches, and the cutting diameter is 63\/64 inch (0.9844 inch decimal).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for job shop, maintenance, and production drilling operations where a near-one-inch diameter hole is required. The 3MT taper shank provides a secure, self-holding connection in compatible spindles, making it appropriate for drill presses and turret lathes used in industrial and commercial settings. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics are the typical installers. The general-purpose grind works across mild steel, cast iron, aluminum, and plastics without requiring a specialty point geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e63\/64 inch (0.9844 inch) cutting diameter for near-one-inch bore applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 3 Morse Taper shank for self-holding fit in compatible spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree point angle — standard geometry for general-purpose drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction maintains cutting edge under moderate heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish reduces friction and provides basic corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6.375-inch flute length supports chip evacuation in deeper bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drill presses, lathes, and milling machines fitted with a No. 3 Morse Taper spindle socket; a 3MT-to-straight-shank sleeve or drift key may be required depending on the machine configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics familiar with Morse Taper tooling. Clean and inspect both the taper shank and the spindle socket before seating to ensure full metal-to-metal contact; debris or burrs in the taper bore will prevent proper seating and can cause the bit to spin or pull out under load. Use a proper drift key in the spindle slot to remove the bit — never strike the chuck or spindle body to dislodge it. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and operate at a feed rate and spindle speed appropriate for the workpiece material and diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63\/64 inch (0.9844 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 3 Morse Taper (3MT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241639\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 89324248\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51752787771698,"sku":"89324248","price":182.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/99a8a8d36d9ae5994b0069800f58da41.jpg?v=1788930325","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-89324248-taper-shank-drill-bit-63-64-in-3mt-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
