Sgs 51054 Jobber Length Drill Bit Wire 54 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 51054 is a jobber-length drill bit designed for precision drilling in composite materials and other demanding workpiece applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide with a bright uncoated finish, this bit delivers the hardness and edge retention required for tight-tolerance work. It carries a wire gauge size of 54, equivalent to 0.055 inches (1.40 mm) in diameter, and features a 118-degree faceted drill point angle with a web-thinned, tapered web configuration for clean entry. The two-flute spiral design with right-hand cutting direction is suited for use by machinists and trade professionals requiring consistent, repeatable hole quality at small diameters.

The SGS 51054 fits typical light-duty precision drilling applications including composite fabrication, instrumentation work, and small-diameter pilot hole operations. Its 1.5-inch overall length and 0.75-inch flute length make it appropriate for shallow-depth drilling tasks. The straight-cylindrical shank is compatible with standard drill chucks used in benchtop drill presses, CNC machining centers, and handheld precision drills. This bit conforms to DIN 338 standards, placing it in a recognized dimensional class for jobber-length tooling across industrial and trade environments.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in composite and hard materials
• 118-degree faceted point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for clean, accurate hole entry
• Wire size 54 diameter: 0.055 inches (1.40 mm) for small-diameter precision drilling
• Two-flute regular spiral design with right-hand cut for efficient chip evacuation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for dry cutting applications
• Conforms to DIN 338 jobber-length standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style jobber-length drill bit conforming to DIN 338 standards, compatible with standard straight-cylindrical shank drill chucks across benchtop, handheld, and CNC drilling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this bit should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with small-diameter carbide tooling. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a properly sized drill chuck before operation to prevent runout. Carbide tooling is brittle and susceptible to breakage under side-loading or excessive feed pressure - use appropriate feed rates for the workpiece material. Ensure the drilling machine is powered down and secured before bit changes.
