Sgs 51036 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill Bit No. 36

Product Description

The SGS 51036 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit sized to No. 36 wire gauge (0.1065 inches / 2.71 mm). Built from micrograin carbide stock, it delivers the hardness and edge retention needed for drilling ferrous metals, hardened alloys, and abrasive composite materials. The 118-degree faceted point with web thinning reduces the thrust required to start a hole and centers reliably without a pilot. Overall length is 2.25 inches, with a 1.25-inch flute length and a straight cylindrical shank. The two-flute right-hand spiral geometry clears chips efficiently during through-hole drilling in production and maintenance environments.

This drill bit is suited for precision metalworking applications where tight diameter tolerance is critical. The diameter tolerance of -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches keeps holes within specification without secondary reaming on many common metals. Typical installations include production floor drilling on CNC machines, drill presses, and hand-held power tools in fabrication and maintenance settings. The bright uncoated finish makes it appropriate where coatings may contaminate certain base materials or processes. Series 101 conforms to DIN 338 standards, making it compatible with metric tooling setups as well.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• 118-degree faceted point with web thinning reduces entry thrust and improves self-centering
• Tight diameter tolerance of -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches for close-tolerance hole applications
• Right-hand two-flute spiral geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable where coating-free surfaces are required
• DIN 338 compliant, Series 101 for consistent cross-tool interchangeability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard jobber-length drill bit conforming to DIN 338 for use in any drill press, CNC machining center, or hand-held power tool accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.1065-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by machinists or trade professionals familiar with rotating cutting tools. Ensure the shank is fully seated and securely clamped in the chuck or collet before operation. Always power down and de-energize the machine before changing or inspecting tooling. Do not exceed the rated maximum drilling depth of 1.00 inch per pass without retracting to clear chips.
