Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and allows drilling to start without a center punch. The Weldon flat shank with three flats locks securely in compatible chucks to prevent slippage under torque. At 4-7\/16 inches overall length, the mechanics length keeps the bit rigid and well-suited for close-quarters work in machine shops and fabrication environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use in metal drilling applications including carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloy, stainless steel, and general steel workpieces. The spiral flute geometry with a regular spiral and parallel web configuration promotes chip evacuation during drilling. Web thinning reduces feed force requirements, making the bit appropriate for both hand-held drill motors and drill press operations in production or maintenance environments. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this bit size and length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e27\/64 inch diameter (0.4219 inch decimal equivalent) for precise sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces center-punch requirements and minimizes walking on startup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, and high alloy steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeldon flat shank with 3 flats prevents rotation in compatible set-screw chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating provides mild lubricity and corrosion resistance during storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tip reduces thrust force and extends cutting life in demanding materials\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 Weldon flat shank drill chucks and holders.

Ensure the set screws engage the flats fully before applying cutting load. Secure the workpiece before drilling and use appropriate cutting fluid for stainless steel or high alloy materials to manage heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace if the point geometry is compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27\/64 inches (0.4219 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\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-7\/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\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: -20923-5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697560748338,"sku":"-20923-5","price":109.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/25c89a7fb1387958f40463044fdca0ef.jpg?v=1788352836","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-20923-5-mechanics-drill-bit-27-64-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
