It carries a 0.1695-inch diameter (Wire Size 18, 4.31 mm) and features a 130-degree split point with R-thinned web geometry to reduce thrust and improve self-centering on entry. The XPM-coated high-performance tool steel construction delivers elevated wear resistance and heat dissipation compared to standard HSS tooling. With two spiral flutes and a straight-cylindrical shank, this bit is suited for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and screw machine setups where rigid tool holding and precise hole tolerances are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is designed for drilling steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and nickel alloy workpieces in production and job-shop environments. The screw machine length format provides a shorter, more rigid profile than jobber-length bits, making it a go-to choice when drilling close to fixtures or in tight setups. The overall length of 68 mm (approximately 2.68 inches) and 24 mm (approximately 0.94 inch) flute length fit standard short-series tool holders. Typical users include machinist trades, maintenance technicians, and production floor operators running repetitive hole operations in hard or abrasive ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eXPM coating provides enhanced wear resistance and extended tool life over uncoated HSS bits in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e130-degree drill point angle with R-thinned web reduces entry thrust and improves hole location accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (3xD flute-to-diameter ratio) delivers increased rigidity versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo spiral flutes with tapered web configuration promote efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of plus 0 to minus 0.018 mm supports close-tolerance hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and nickel alloy workpieces.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing tooling. Verify chuck or collet runout before use, as excessive runout accelerates wear and degrades hole quality. Do not exceed the recommended surface footage for XPM-coated tooling in the workpiece material being drilled; consult the OSG Series 1900 speeds and feeds guide for cutting parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1695 inches (4.31 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 68 mm (approximately 2.68 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 mm (approximately 0.94 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 mm (approximately 0.236 inches)\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: R-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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: XPM High Performance Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: XPM Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Alloy Steel, Cast Iron, Nickel Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0 to minus 0.018 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1900\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 pounds\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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8608431\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732551434546,"sku":"8608431","price":69.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bb3bbc1959dc85e71fb4a12871360de2_2958a3e6-8b9b-4b99-b9c5-75cdfaf8db1b.jpg?v=1788744364","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-8608431-screw-machine-drill-bit-0-1695-in-xpm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
