Sgs 51009 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill Bit Wire Size 9

Product Description

The SGS 51009 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit in wire gauge size 9, with a decimal inch diameter of 0.196 inches and a 118-degree faceted point angle. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this bit delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for drilling ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and composite materials. The bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose machining where coating compatibility is a concern. The two-flute spiral design with a web-thinned, tapered web reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. This bit is sold individually and is suited for use by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance professionals working with manual or CNC drilling equipment.

The SGS 51009 Series 101 jobber drill bit is sized for a wide range of production and maintenance drilling applications. At 3 inches overall length with a 1.75-inch flute length and a 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio, it fits standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders with a straight-cylindrical shank. The maximum drilling depth is 1.406 inches, making it appropriate for through-hole and blind-hole work in light to medium materials. Right-hand cut direction is compatible with conventional drill press, lathe, and machining-center spindle rotation.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for enhanced hardness and edge retention
• 118-degree faceted point with web thinning reduces entry thrust and improves centering
• Two-flute regular spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose and non-reactive drilling applications
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks and collet holders
• Conforms to DIN 338 standard for jobber-length drill geometry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber-length drill bit conforming to DIN 338 geometry, compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 0.196-inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed and removed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a standard drill chuck key or collet wrench. Ensure the drilling machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify chuck or collet bore size is appropriate for the 0.196-inch shank diameter before seating. Do not exceed the recommended maximum drilling depth of 1.406 inches per pass without retracting to clear chips.
