The bit measures 2 inches in overall length with a 1 inch flute length and a 0.0760 inch diameter. The 118-degree standard point angle makes this a general-purpose bit suited to drilling steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials in production or maintenance shop environments. Two regular spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently, and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements at the point. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly into standard drill chucks without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis jobber drill is a staple in metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and trade service vans wherever small-diameter wire-size holes are needed. Typical applications include pilot holes, clearance holes for fasteners, and light-duty drilling in ferrous stock. The 0.0760 inch cutting diameter falls in the 0.0500 to 0.1000 inch size range, making it appropriate for precision sheet-metal work, conduit knockout preparation, and mechanical assembly tasks common to HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo. 48 wire size, 0.0760 inch cutting diameter for small-hole accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose ferrous drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with black oxide finish for corrosion resistance and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces feed force and point walking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo regular spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill for use in any standard drill chuck accepting a 0.0760 inch straight shank.

Secure the shank firmly in the chuck before operation and verify the work piece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation. Use cutting fluid or oil when drilling hardened steel or cast iron to extend bit life and maintain dimensional accuracy. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace if chipping or dulling is evident, as a worn 0.0760 inch bit can deflect and produce oversized holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0760 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0760 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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered 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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black 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\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\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: 01188481\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716492034354,"sku":"01188481","price":29.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9037c491055bdfc2f8d7b06e379c0f14.jpg?v=1788526809","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01188481-no-48-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
