It measures 0.177 inches in diameter and 3.375 inches in overall length, with a 2.1875-inch flute length. The 118-degree standard point angle suits general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron. Web thinning reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation at the cutting tip. This bit is installed and used by machinists, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and general trade professionals performing metal fabrication or hole-making tasks in production and field environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis jobber drill bit is intended for general-purpose metalworking applications where a No. 16 wire gauge hole diameter is required. It performs in ferrous materials including steel and cast iron. The straight shank fits standard keyed and keyless drill chucks across bench drill presses, portable hand drills, and drill-press setups. The regular spiral flute handles chip clearing in through-hole and blind-hole drilling at moderate feed and speed rates. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 12 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo. 16 wire size, 0.177-inch diameter for precise hole sizing in metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry into steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction resists heat generated during metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide coating improves surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces axial thrust and improves centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with right-hand cutting direction for standard drill chuck use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill bit compatible with any drill chuck accepting a 0.177-inch straight cylindrical shank, including keyed and keyless chucks on portable drills and stationary drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or qualified trade technician should secure the shank fully in the drill chuck before operating. Ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped or fixtured before drilling to prevent movement. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling steel to extend bit life and maintain hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use and replace any bit showing chipping or rounding at the tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.177 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.177 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered Web-Thinned\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 01188168\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691291115826,"sku":"01188168","price":52.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/30716b8e011d7d42a632f31d5acfc1b6.jpg?v=1788282800","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01188168-no-16-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
