Sized at 0.368 inches (Letter U) in diameter with a 135-degree split point, it delivers fast chip evacuation and accurate starts without a center punch. The two-flute, straight-cylindrical shank design fits standard drill chucks and CNC machining centers. Coolant-through capability supports high-speed drilling cycles where heat buildup is a concern. This bit belongs to the MDW-HGS series and carries a tapered web configuration with two margins for superior hole straightness and finish quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production environments and job-shop operations where consistent hole quality in ferrous materials is required. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron, stainless steel, and steel. The screw machine length format provides a rigid, compact geometry that reduces deflection in short-reach drilling setups on lathes, mills, and drill presses. A flute-to-diameter ratio of 3xD and a maximum drilling depth of 1.318 inches make it appropriate for through-holes and shallow blind holes in structural and machined components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in ferrous and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates walk on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design supports chip flushing and thermal control at high feed rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (overall 4.173 inches) provides rigidity and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web with two margins delivers consistent hole geometry and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance h8 ensures precise fit for close-tolerance hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard straight-shank drill chucks and collet holders on CNC machining centers, lathes, and drill presses.

Verify chuck or collet runout before seating the shank to protect the h8 diameter tolerance and prevent premature edge wear. When using coolant-through capability, confirm coolant pressure and flow rate are within the machine spindle specifications before initiating a cutting cycle. Do not exceed the maximum drilling depth of 1.318 inches in a single pass without confirming chip clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.368 inches (Letter U)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.173 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.870 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.205 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.318 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.076 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Margins\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute-to-Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: MDW-HGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.38 pounds\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: U101143\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732359151922,"sku":"U101143","price":184.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/94232f9219000c331f8541b1b8f0d947.jpg?v=1788742038","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-u101143-carbide-screw-machine-drill-bit-0-368-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
