The bit measures 0.242 inches in diameter with an overall length of 4 inches and a flute length of 2.75 inches. A standard 118-degree point angle provides reliable centering on flat and curved surfaces without requiring a pilot hole in most applications. The bright, uncoated finish is the baseline standard for HSS tooling and suits dry or lightly lubricated drilling operations. Licensed machinists, millwrights, and general tradespeople are the primary users of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling aluminum, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and soft materials in both shop and field settings. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard three-jaw drill chucks on benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and portable magnetic-base drills. The regular spiral flute geometry promotes chip evacuation in shallow-to-moderate depth holes. It is a single-piece per package unit sold in minimum order quantities of 12, making it appropriate for stocking tool cribs, maintenance carts, or service van inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter C diameter: 0.242 inches for close-tolerance hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry on flat and curved workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides adequate hardness for non-ferrous metals and general shop materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with tapered web and web-thinned geometry for improved chip flow and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish compatible with dry cutting or standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for any standard three-jaw drill chuck accepting a 0.242-inch straight shank.

Always ensure the drill press or hand drill is powered off and unplugged before changing bits. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent bit walking or workpiece rotation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling metals to extend bit service life, unless the application calls for dry cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2420 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2420 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and Non-Ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.057 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\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: 01166032\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721923952946,"sku":"01166032","price":58.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a95cbe454d2117c4899eb1f75247b3d0.jpg?v=1788583265","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01166032-letter-c-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
