Built to the MDW-GS4 series specification, this bit features a TiAlCr\/TiSi coating that extends tool life and supports higher cutting speeds across a range of workpiece materials. The drill point angle is 135 degrees, which provides accurate self-centering and reduces walking on entry. The overall length is 3.2677 inches with a mechanics-length flute design suited for controlled, close-quarter drilling operations. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance trades are the typical end users for this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is engineered for use on cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and carbon steel. The tapered web configuration helps with chip evacuation and reduces thrust force at the cutting edge. It is well suited to CNC machining centers, drill presses, and handheld power drills where a compact, mechanics-length bit is required. The 17\/64 inch diameter (0.2656 inch decimal, 6.75 mm metric equivalent) and 0.2812 inch shank diameter make it a direct fit for standard drill chucks in both imperial and metric tooling setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended wear resistance and rigidity in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlCr\/TiSi coating provides thermal protection and reduces built-up edge on stainless steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point angle for accurate self-centering and reduced feed force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web geometry improves chip evacuation and lowers heat buildup at depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics-length OAL of 3.2677 inches suits close-quarter and fixture drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMDW-GS4 series rated for high-performance cutting on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for use on cast iron, non-ferrous metal, stainless steel, and steel workpieces.

No coolant-through capability; intended for dry or externally lubricated cutting environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance trades familiar with carbide tooling. Power down and de-energize all equipment before changing drill bits, and ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is securely tightened before operation. Solid carbide tooling is brittle and should not be subjected to side loads or impact; avoid using this bit in hammer-drill mode. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for feed rate and spindle speed selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch \/ 6.75 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\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: TiAlCr\/TiSi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: MDW-GS4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.2677 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6929 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2812 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SUMITOMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: U101081\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739251867954,"sku":"U101081","price":139.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a8f407a287870864cd15ca6ff6c69317.jpg?v=1788812150","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-u101081-mechanics-drill-bit-17-64-in-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
