Built from solid carbide with a bright\/uncoated finish, this bit delivers consistent performance in tough materials including cast iron, stainless steel, steel, and non-ferrous metals. It measures 1.1811 inches in overall length with a 0.0492-inch diameter and features a 118-degree drill point angle. The straight-cylindrical shank and regular spiral flute geometry make it a reliable choice for CNC equipment and manual drill press setups. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the typical end users for this Series 226 bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for short-length, high-precision drilling tasks where a compact tool profile is required. The screw machine length format reduces deflection and improves hole accuracy in close-tolerance work. It is well-matched to production environments where cast iron, stainless steel, and general steels are commonly drilled. The 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip evacuation in shallow-to-moderate depth holes. Single-piece solid carbide construction maintains concentricity and edge integrity across high-cycle runs. Sold individually, it fits into standard collets and chucks accepting a 0.0492-inch straight-cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree drill point angle for general-purpose metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluid or dry in compatible materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flute for predictable chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank at 0.0492 inches for standard collet or chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine (short) length reduces deflection and improves positional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Series 226 screw machine length drill bit intended for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metal, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked before changing tooling. Confirm runout with a dial indicator when extreme positional tolerance is required. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate selection when working with solid carbide tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1811 inches (30.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8661 inches (22.00 mm)\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\u003eNumber of Margins\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.013 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 226\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 22604920\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739685945650,"sku":"22604920","price":17.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2f50e45c19c859b24d81a857040eea28_6a6f4eff-dcff-4418-855f-ef5a6846582e.jpg?v=1788817830","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-22604920-drill-bit-0-0492-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
