Built from solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and wear resistance needed when working through cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, and carbon steel. The bit measures 0.277 inches in diameter with a 118-degree faceted point and a web-thinned tip that reduces thrust at entry and improves centering. Overall length is 2.5 inches with a 1-inch flute length, making it well-suited for CNC machining centers, turret lathes, and screw machines where a short, stiff tool is required to control deflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Series 206 drill bit is designed for short-hole drilling applications in ferrous and non-ferrous production work. The stub-length body limits overhang, which reduces vibration and improves hole accuracy in tight setups. It covers a drill bit size range of 0.2500 to 0.3000 inches decimal and corresponds to letter size J. The straight cylindrical shank at 0.277 inches diameter fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without modification, making it a straightforward drop-in for most production tooling setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree faceted point with web thinning for reduced entry thrust and improved self-centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length at 2.5 inches overall limits deflection in short-reach drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute geometry with a 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for use across cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches ensures consistent, on-size holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a production-grade replacement or first-fit drill bit for applications requiring a 0.277-inch (letter J) stub-length carbide drill.

Ensure the collet or chuck is clean and the shank is fully seated before clamping. Solid carbide tooling is brittle — avoid side-loading or using this bit as a reamer. Verify spindle speed and feed rate against workpiece material requirements before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.277 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: J\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.277 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Faceted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel with web thinning\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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short (Screw Machine Length)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 206\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 20627700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749206720818,"sku":"20627700","price":73.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01e7b23308cd60a4613f795d9f995e48_e861225e-7693-483a-a205-512e89478f62.jpg?v=1788903148","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20627700-screw-machine-drill-bit-0-277in-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
