It carries a wire gauge size of No. 73, corresponding to a decimal diameter of 0.0240 inches (0.61 mm), with a 130-degree four-facet point geometry that promotes accurate entry and minimizes walking on hard, abrasive substrates. The 1\/8-inch (0.1250-inch decimal) shank diameter fits standard PCB drilling spindles and CNC drill chucks. Overall length is 1.5 inches, with a flute length of 0.3400 inches. The uncoated solid carbide construction provides the rigidity and edge retention required at sub-millimeter diameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for small-hole drilling operations in electronics manufacturing, prototyping shops, and precision machining environments. The regular spiral with a 30-degree helix angle and tapered web configuration handles a broad range of workpiece materials, including aluminum, copper alloy, plastics, fiber-reinforced polymers, stainless steel, titanium, cobalt alloy, cast iron, and nickel-based alloys. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional CNC and benchtop drilling setups used by machinists and electronics fabricators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo. 73 wire size  -  0.0240-inch (0.61 mm) diameter for fine-tolerance circuit board holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130-degree four-facet point reduces walking and improves entry accuracy on hard substrates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers rigidity and edge retention at sub-millimeter scales\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral with 30-degree helix angle clears chips efficiently across multiple material types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered web configuration adds strength at the drill tip without sacrificing cut quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish compatible with a wide range of materials including fiber-reinforced polymers and titanium alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/8-inch shank PCB drilling spindles, CNC drill presses, and compatible collet chucks used in circuit board fabrication and precision drilling applications.

Ensure the spindle and workpiece are secured before initiating the drilling cycle. At this diameter, feed rate and spindle speed must be carefully controlled to avoid bit breakage  -  consult the machine manufacturer guidelines for recommended parameters for carbide tooling at sub-0.030-inch diameters. Inspect the bit for tip chipping before each use, as solid carbide at this scale is brittle and sensitive to side loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 73\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0240 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.61 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Four Facet\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: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch (0.1250 inches decimal, 3.18 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches (38.10 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3400 inches (8.64 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0003 to +0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 07298\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739403878706,"sku":"07298","price":16.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/98175ba8bf9b9467fd1547534ed5947a.jpg?v=1788814162","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-07298-circuit-board-drill-bit-no-73-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
