It is a wire gauge size 24 bit with a decimal diameter of 0.152 inches, manufactured from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish. The 135-degree split-point tip reduces walking on entry and requires less feed pressure than a conventional 118-degree point. A parabolic spiral flute with web thinning improves chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup at depth. Licensed trades and machinists use this bit for production and maintenance drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. It fits standard drilling applications on drill presses, CNC machines, and handheld power drills. The straight cylindrical shank seats in any standard three-jaw chuck. With a flute-to-diameter ratio of 13xD and a maximum drilling depth of 2 inches, it handles through-holes and blind holes in production environments. It is part of the QC21P series, which is rated for heavy-duty general-purpose work to ANSI standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 24, 0.152-inch diameter for close-tolerance hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree point angle reduces bit walking and entry force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles steel, stainless, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic spiral flute with web thinning improves chip clearance and drilling efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant heavy-duty grade, QC21P series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose OEM-style jobber-length drill bit compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks on handheld drills, drill presses, and CNC drilling machines accepting a 0.152-inch straight cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by machinists, tool and die workers, or qualified tradespeople familiar with metal drilling operations. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling.
