It drills a 0.242-inch diameter hole and runs at a 118-degree standard point angle, making it a reliable general-purpose bit for production and maintenance drilling. The two-flute, regular-spiral design provides efficient chip evacuation, and the web-thinned tapered web reduces feed pressure at the point. At 4 inches overall length with a 2.75-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks via its straight cylindrical shank. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional drill press and hand-drill use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel and cast iron in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and light industrial settings. The general-purpose HSS-oxide construction handles moderate cutting speeds without coolant-through capability, making it appropriate for bench drilling, step drilling in plate stock, and field repair work. It is sold individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 12 units, which suits shop restocking or tool-crib replenishment programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetter C diameter — 0.242 inches — for precise fractional and letter-size hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose use in steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with black oxide coating for corrosion resistance and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces point entry force and improves centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral, two-flute design for efficient chip clearance\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 replacement or stock bit for standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting a 0.242-inch straight shank, compatible with drill presses, hand drills, and magnetic-base drills used in steel and cast iron applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is installed and used by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians. Before chucking the bit, ensure the drill press or hand tool is powered off and the chuck key is removed before startup. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent rotation. Do not use coolant-through circuits as this bit does not support internal coolant delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Letter C (0.242 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\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\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: 0.242 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\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: 0.06 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: 01189034\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722240164146,"sku":"01189034","price":58.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/35c030cbebedf9add983cc8aa3cca0a4.jpg?v=1788588002","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01189034-letter-c-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
