It features a 118-degree faceted point angle and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces entry resistance and improves chip evacuation. The bright, uncoated finish suits general-purpose drilling across a range of workpiece materials. With an overall length of 2 inches and a flute length of 1 inch, this bit fits standard jobber-length drilling operations in production and maintenance environments. It is installed and used by machinists, tool and die professionals, and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and steel workpieces. The regular spiral flute with a 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports efficient chip clearing in through-hole and blind-hole applications. The straight-cylindrical shank with a diameter of 0.0890 inches seats directly in standard drill chucks and collet holders. Series 204 positions this bit as a general-purpose option for small-diameter precision drilling in both shop and field environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in small-diameter drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree faceted point with web thinning for reduced thrust and cleaner entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute, 5xD ratio, for consistent chip evacuation in ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose applications across multiple workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank at 0.0890 inches diameter for direct chuck or collet mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to ISO 9001:2015 certified quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style general-purpose drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 0.0890-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Secure the shank fully within the chuck or collet before operation to prevent runout. Ensure the workpiece is properly fixtured and that cutting speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and bit diameter. Coolant through is not supported on this bit; apply external coolant or cutting fluid as required by the application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 43\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0890 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Faceted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0890 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright, Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 204\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015\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: M.A. FORD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20408900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740300869938,"sku":"20408900","price":33.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3443583573f8dad1c3555b01a59849af_7816cb81-8aec-4ac8-a88c-fddaf372aaa6.jpg?v=1788824126","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20408900-jobber-length-drill-bit-no-43","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
