Built from high speed steel with an oxide coating, it handles repeated use in production and maintenance environments. The bit measures 8.5 mm (0.3346 inches) in diameter with a standard 118-degree point angle and a regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation. Overall length is 4-49\/64 inches, and the straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional drilling operations. This bit suits machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who need a reliable general-purpose drill in metric sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 27425 is suited for light to medium drilling tasks in shop, field, and maintenance settings. Its 8.5 mm diameter places it in the 8.00 to 9.00 mm size range, making it a common selection for clearance holes, pilot holes, and through-hole applications across metal fabrication, HVAC installation, plumbing rough-in, and electrical work. The web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements and improves point stability at the start of a cut. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 6 units per order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide coating for improved wear and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose use across a wide range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute promotes smooth chip evacuation during drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces cutting thrust and improves centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut compatible with all standard corded and cordless drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any standard drill press, hand drill, or driver accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.3346-inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall the bit securely in a properly sized drill chuck and confirm it is centered before applying power. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. For metal drilling, use cutting fluid where applicable to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point is 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: 8.5 mm (0.3346 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-49\/64 inches (121 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-27\/64 inches (87 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3346 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\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: 27425\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691502338354,"sku":"27425","price":29.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aa0bb0bf480264194743ac2ac80cef1a.jpg?v=1788286064","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-27425-jobber-length-drill-bit-8-5-mm-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
