Built from solid carbide, it delivers the hardness and heat resistance required for drilling tough materials where high-speed steel bits fall short. The bit features a 140-degree split point angle that reduces walking and improves hole entry accuracy. At 0.1772 inches (wire gauge #16) in diameter, it handles small-diameter bores with tight tolerances. Coolant-through capability supports high-feed drilling operations by flushing chips and managing heat at the cutting zone. Right-hand spiral flutes efficiently clear material. This bit is used by machinists, tool and die makers, and precision fabricators on CNC and manual drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 8696450 suits applications requiring an extended reach beyond standard jobber length, making it appropriate for deep-hole work and setups where clearance demands a longer flute. The 8xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides the reach needed for deep bores while the solid carbide construction maintains rigidity to resist deflection. The EgiAs finish supports tool life in a range of workpiece materials. The straight shank with a 5.00 mm shank diameter fits standard drill chucks and collet holders commonly used on machining centers and drill presses. Web thinning (X-Thinned) reduces thrust requirements at the point, which is particularly useful when drilling harder alloys or stainless steels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for hardness, heat resistance, and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140-degree split point angle reduces center walking and improves entry accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design flushes chips and manages heat in deep-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides extended reach for taper length applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eX-Thinned web reduces thrust force at the cutting point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEgiAs coating supports tool durability across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use taper length drill bit for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual machines equipped with standard drill chucks or collet holders accepting a straight shank with a 5.00 mm shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians familiar with cutting tool setup and machine operation. Secure the straight shank firmly in a compatible chuck or collet before operation and verify runout is within acceptable limits for the application. Engage coolant-through capability when available to maximize tool life and chip evacuation. Do not exceed the machine spindle speed and feed rate recommended for the workpiece material and drill diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1772 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: #16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\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: EgiAs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 115.00 mm (approximately 4.53 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: X-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6530\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.55 inches L x 0.45 inches W x 0.35 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 8696450\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755319722290,"sku":"8696450","price":295.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d31008abec274f4e968ff2dec495352b_1de5af73-9cda-4994-8e34-f4fea6a72efd.jpg?v=1788953574","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-8696450-taper-length-drill-bit-0-1772-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
