Osg 62564 Jobber Drill Bit 6.4 Mm Tin Hss

Product Description

The OSG 62564 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for precision hole-making in metal and alloy workpieces. Built from vanadium high speed steel and finished with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, it delivers extended tool life and reduced friction during drilling operations. The bit measures 6.4 mm in diameter with an overall length of 107 mm and a flute length of 63 mm. A 120-degree split point with S-thinned web geometry promotes self-centering and reduces thrust force, making it suitable for production drilling as well as maintenance and repair work across fabrication, mechanical, and industrial trade environments.

This bit is suited for drilling into steel, stainless steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy, and aluminum silicate. Typical applications include blind hole drilling, cross-hole drilling, and self-centering operations in both shop and field settings. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, and the regular spiral flute promotes consistent chip evacuation in a wide range of setups. It is a practical choice for machinists, pipefitters, millwrights, and general metalworking trades.

Key Features

• Vanadium high speed steel construction for durability in metal drilling applications
• Titanium nitride (TiN) coating reduces friction and extends cutting edge life
• 120-degree drill point angle with S-thinned web for self-centering and reduced thrust
• Regular spiral flute with tapered web configuration promotes efficient chip removal
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• Right-hand cut with 2-flute geometry suitable for blind hole and cross-hole work

Compatibility

Designed for use with steel, stainless steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy, and aluminum silicate workpieces. Compatible with any standard drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle accepting an 8 mm straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Install into a properly sized drill chuck and confirm shank is fully seated before operation. Secure the workpiece firmly to prevent movement during cutting. Apply appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling stainless steel or harder alloys to manage heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edge for wear before each use and replace when point geometry is degraded to maintain hole accuracy and prevent workpiece damage.
