It features a 3\/8 inch diameter, a 135-degree split point for self-centering starts without a center punch, and a Weldon flat shank for secure chuck retention with reduced slip. The body is machined from high-speed steel with an oxide finish that provides basic lubricity and mild corrosion resistance during cutting. With an overall length of 4.25 inches and a flute length of 2.6875 inches, this bit is sized for compact drilling tasks where a jobber-length bit would be excessive. Licensed tradespeople and machining technicians reach for this bit when access or depth constraints demand a shorter drill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IMPORT 20920 is suited for right-hand drilling in carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloy, stainless steel, and general steel stock. The mechanics length is a common choice in maintenance, repair, and light fabrication environments where drill depth is limited by surrounding structure or tooling clearance. The three-flat Weldon shank mates with set-screw style chucks and holders used on drill presses, milling machines, and magnetic base drills. Web-thinned geometry reduces thrust force at the cutting edge, which is particularly useful when drilling harder alloys by hand or with lower-torque equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch diameter with 135-degree split point for self-centering entry on metal surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles general-purpose ferrous metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeldon flat shank with three flats prevents rotation slip in set-screw holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating provides baseline lubricity and surface protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, parallel web geometry reduces cutting thrust on harder materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length at 4.25 inches overall suits tight-clearance drilling scenarios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose mechanics-length drill bit compatible with drill presses, milling machine spindles, and magnetic base drills equipped with Weldon flat or set-screw style chuck holders.

Secure the Weldon shank fully in the chuck or holder and tighten all set screws before starting the spindle. Always wear appropriate eye protection and ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured before drilling. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or damage before each use and replace the bit if the point is chipped or the flutes are damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6875 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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\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\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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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: 20920\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718666780978,"sku":"20920","price":61.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a9e24282992d65055831380ce0f26018.jpg?v=1788554877","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-20920-3-8-inch-mechanics-drill-bit-hss-split-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
