Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating, it provides solid wear resistance for everyday metal drilling tasks. The standard 118-degree split point seats quickly and reduces walking on entry. At 3.375 inches overall length with a 2.1875-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and drill presses used in fabrication and maintenance applications. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians will find it suited for repetitive hole-making in structural and sheet steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis jobber drill bit is intended for use in steel and cast iron workpieces across light industrial, mechanical, and maintenance applications. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard three-jaw chucks on handheld drills and drill presses. The regular spiral flute evacuates chips efficiently during through-hole drilling. A tapered web configuration with web thinning helps reduce thrust force requirements on harder ferrous materials. This bit is sold individually and is best suited for shops or field kits requiring a reliable general-purpose metal drill in the 0.1500 to 0.2000 decimal inch size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire size 17 (0.1730 inches) diameter for precise hole sizing in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide finish for wear and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces entry thrust on harder materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight 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 jobber-length drill bit suitable for use in standard three-jaw chuck handheld drills and drill presses; primary workpiece materials are steel and cast iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed and operated by machinists, maintenance mechanics, or qualified tradespeople using standard drill presses or handheld power drills. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before use and confirm the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling harder ferrous materials to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use and replace the bit if the point is chipped or blunted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 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\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\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\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: 27517\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IMPORT-GENERIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722235904306,"sku":"27517","price":23.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/62ee8dc509ccefead4706e60dc8820b6.jpg?v=1788587921","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/import-27517-jobber-drill-bit-wire-17-118-deg-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
