It measures 0.166 inches in diameter with a 3.25 inch overall length and a 2 inch flute length. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking on entry and lowers the thrust needed to start a hole, making it well suited for hand-fed and machine-fed drilling operations. The oxide coating provides a baseline level of lubricity and corrosion resistance. Right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during through and blind-hole drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use on ferrous workpiece materials including carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloys, stainless steel, and general steel. The mechanics length format — shorter than a jobber bit — gives added rigidity in tight clearance situations such as engine compartments, structural steel bays, and equipment panels. It is a common consumable stocked by millwrights, pipefitters, HVAC fabricators, and general maintenance technicians who drill metal regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walk and lowers entry thrust on hard ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles the heat generated during metal drilling without rapid edge breakdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMechanics length (3.25 inches OAL) provides rigidity in confined work areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish adds baseline lubricity and surface protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web improves chip flow and reduces cutting resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement mechanics drill bit for use in standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting straight-cylindrical shanks, compatible with hand drills, drill presses, and machining centers set up for right-hand cutting tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is installed and used by machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a three-jaw chuck before operation and confirm the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation. Use appropriate cutting fluid on hard alloy and stainless steel workpieces to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or significant wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.166 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 Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, High Alloy Steel, High Tensile Strength Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: IMPORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20819\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700660207922,"sku":"20819","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/262ab8a5ed91b701c955a667a35ec3e3.jpg?v=1788393429","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-20819-mechanics-drill-bit-0-166-in-hss-split-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
