Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it features a 135-degree split point that is self-centering and reduces walking on entry without a center punch. The extended 12-inch overall length combined with a 4.5-inch spiral flute delivers efficient chip evacuation during deep-hole drilling. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard drill chucks. This bit is suited for use by machinists, aircraft maintenance technicians, sheet metal workers, and general trade professionals requiring extended reach in steel, aluminum, and similar materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAircraft extension drill bits like the C.E05.1270 are used in applications where standard jobber-length bits cannot reach the bore location. Common scenarios include drilling through structural panels, deep cavity work in fabrication, and maintenance applications on aircraft airframes or HVAC equipment housings. The 12-inch overall length and right-hand spiral flute geometry make it practical for both handheld and drill-press use. The tapered web and web-thinned configuration reduce thrust requirements, making the bit easier to drive in extended-reach setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point is self-centering and reduces drill walking on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide finish for heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch overall length provides extended reach beyond standard jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5-inch spiral flute length promotes efficient chip clearance in deep holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered, web-thinned configuration reduces drilling thrust requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction with two-flute spiral geometry for general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose aircraft extension drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a 1\/2-inch straight cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists, sheet metal workers, and maintenance technicians using a hand drill or drill press with a standard 1\/2-inch or larger chuck capacity. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement during extended-reach operations. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being drilled to prolong bit life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use, as extended-length bits are subject to increased deflection forces that can accelerate edge degradation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Centering\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: C.E05.1270\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51788718637362,"sku":"C.E05.1270","price":44.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d6ffcb7a8b25b91d539397cec6c69c79.jpg?v=1789231677","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-c-e05-1270-aircraft-extension-drill-bit-1-2-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
