Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, the bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and allows self-centering on contact without a center punch. Two spiral flutes with a tapered web and web-thinned construction clear chips efficiently and reduce cutting resistance. The straight cylindrical shank is compatible with standard drill chucks. At 6 inches overall length with a 4.0625-inch flute length, this bit provides the extended reach required for structural, fabrication, and maintenance drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for general-purpose right-hand drilling in metal, plastic, and similar materials where extended reach is required. Common applications include airframe and sheet metal work, HVAC ductwork penetrations, electrical rough-in drilling through deep cavities, and maintenance tasks on equipment where standard drill bits cannot reach the target bore location. It is sized at 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch decimal) and accepts the same chuck as a standard 7\/16-inch bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and enables self-centering on curved or flat surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web construction lowers thrust force and improves chip ejection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands heat generated during extended drilling cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-inch overall length with 4.0625-inch flute length delivers extended reach in confined or deep installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, two-flute spiral design compatible with standard variable-speed drills and drill presses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose aircraft extension drill bit with a 7\/16-inch straight cylindrical shank, compatible with any standard drill chuck that accepts 7\/16-inch shanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed and operated by machinists, sheet metal workers, electricians, and HVAC technicians using standard corded or cordless drills and drill presses. Secure the workpiece before drilling and use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if the point is chipped or the flutes are damaged. Follow all applicable shop safety practices including eye protection and secure workholding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.0625 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Centering\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01000280\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692149375282,"sku":"01000280","price":40.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a91ddc547731d89d3364e21a0b0f259b.jpg?v=1788293775","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01000280-aircraft-drill-bit-7-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
