Osg 8612295 Jobber Length Drill Bit Wire Size 32

Product Description

The OSG 8612295 is a jobber-length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in ferrous and hard materials. Built from powdered metal (PM) with a V coating, it delivers elevated wear resistance compared to standard high-speed steel tooling. The bit is wire gauge size 32, equivalent to 0.1160 inches (2.95 mm) in diameter, with an overall length of 65 mm and a flute length of 33 mm. The 130-degree X-thinned point reduces entry thrust and improves self-centering, making it well-suited for precision hole work in production and maintenance settings. Licensed machinists and tool-room technicians are the primary users of this bit.

This bit is rated for use in steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and nickel alloy workpieces. Its regular spiral flute geometry and right-hand cut make it a standard choice for through-drilling, blind hole drilling, cross-hole operations, and self-centering applications. The straight-cylindrical shank (3.00 mm diameter) fits standard drill chucks and collet holders used in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held power tools across manufacturing and maintenance environments.

Key Features

• Wire size 32 (0.1160 inches / 2.95 mm) with diameter tolerance of +0 to -0.014 mm
• Powdered metal construction with V coating for extended tool life in ferrous materials
• 130-degree X-thinned point reduces thrust and improves self-centering on entry
• Regular spiral, 2-flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Tapered web configuration with X-thinned web for reduced cutting resistance
• Suitable for blind hole, cross hole, general drilling, and self-centering applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use jobber drill bit for operations involving steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and nickel alloy workpieces in the 0.1000 to 0.1500 inch decimal inch size range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this bit should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with proper tooling practices. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully in a properly sized drill chuck or collet before operation, and verify that chuck runout is within acceptable limits to protect the close-tolerance diameter. Power down and de-energize all equipment before changing or inspecting tooling. Do not exceed the recommended speed and feed parameters for the workpiece material and bit diameter.
