It features a 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) diameter with a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on contact and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The Weldon flat shank with three flats resists rotation in the chuck, making it well suited for high-torque drill press and hand-drill applications. The oxide coating provides a baseline level of lubricity and corrosion resistance during service. Overall length is 3-5\/8 inches with a flute length of 2-1\/8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is intended for drilling carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloy, stainless steel, and general steel stock. The mechanics-length body keeps the bit rigid in tight clearance areas while still providing enough flute length for through-hole work in typical structural and fabricated metal components. The right-hand spiral flute evacuates chips efficiently during standard clockwise drilling operations. It is a practical choice for maintenance mechanics, millwrights, fabricators, and general metalworking shops that need a reliable short-series bit for production or repair drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17\/64 inch diameter with 135-degree split point for self-starting engagement and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles a broad range of ferrous workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeldon flat shank with 3 flats prevents slippage in chuck under high torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics (short-series) length at 3-5\/8 inches OAL for rigidity in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides light lubricity and surface protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web reduces cutting resistance and heat buildup at the tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for standard clockwise drilling and efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drill presses, magnetic drills, and hand drills equipped with chucks that accept Weldon flat shanks.

Use cutting fluid or a suitable metalworking lubricant when drilling stainless steel, high alloy steel, or high tensile strength materials to extend tool life and reduce heat. Ensure the workpiece is clamped securely before drilling to prevent rotation or movement. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch)\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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/8 inches\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\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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\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: IMPORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20913\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693118390578,"sku":"20913","price":38.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a3b5d82d16c12472af9eca9f04ba96c6.jpg?v=1788307554","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-20913-mechanics-drill-bit-17-64-inch-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
