Hertel H95006123 Jobber Drill Bit No. 24 Hss 137 Deg

Product Description

The HERTEL H95006123 is a No. 24 wire-size jobber-length drill bit designed for production and general-purpose holemaking in metal and similar materials. Manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit cuts at 0.1520 inches and features a 137-degree split point that reduces walking and lowers thrust on entry. The two-flute spiral design clears chips efficiently through the 1.5-inch flute length. At 3.125 inches overall length, it fits standard drill chucks used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople. The heavy-duty grade construction supports repeated use in demanding shop and field environments.

This jobber drill is suited for holemaking applications in light to medium metals, plastics, and composite materials. The right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral make it compatible with conventional drill presses, hand drills, and CNC drilling operations. The 137-degree split point geometry is particularly effective in harder materials where a standard 118-degree point would tend to skate. This bit ships individually and is ordered in multiples of 12, making it a practical choice for stocking tool cribs or replenishing field kits.

Key Features

• No. 24 wire size at 0.1520 inches decimal diameter for precise hole sizing
• 137-degree split point reduces walking and decreases feed pressure on entry
• High speed steel construction with oxide finish for wear resistance in metal drilling
• Right-hand, regular-spiral two-flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Heavy-duty grade rated for production drilling environments
• ANSI specification designation ensures dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber-length drill bit fitting any chuck that accepts round-shank bits in the No. 24 wire-size range. Suitable for use with drill presses, hand drills, and CNC spindles configured for this diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tradespeople familiar with proper drilling technique for the material being cut. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and verify chuck tightness before operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow shop safety protocols. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.
