It features a 118-degree standard point angle and an oxide coating that provides basic lubricity and corrosion resistance during drilling operations. The bit is web-thinned with a tapered web configuration, which reduces the thrust force needed to start a hole. With an overall length of 4.125 inches and a 2.875-inch flute length, it fits standard drill chucks with a straight cylindrical shank. This bit is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and general fabricators working in metal trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron in both shop and field environments. The right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral flute geometry provide efficient chip evacuation in these ferrous materials. The straight shank accepts standard three-jaw chucks on benchtop drill presses, magnetic drills, and hand-held power drills. It is appropriate for production and maintenance drilling where a standard letter-size drill is called out on a drawing or required to achieve a specific hole diameter prior to tapping or reaming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter I size — 0.272 inches diameter — for applications requiring a specific decimal hole size in the 0.250 to 0.300 inch range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle suited for steel and cast iron drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide finish for basic wear and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces thrust and improves hole-starting accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with right-hand cut for efficient chip removal in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill for use in standard three-jaw chucks on drill presses, hand drills, and magnetic drills.

Secure the bit fully in the chuck and verify it runs true before drilling. Coolant-through operation is not supported; use a cutting fluid applied externally when drilling steel to extend tool life. Never force a dull bit — replace it to maintain hole quality and prevent breakage.\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: I\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.272 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.272 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\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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\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\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\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: 01189091\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694278345010,"sku":"01189091","price":45.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/df138d960e69daa029909b7dc755707f.jpg?v=1788322517","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01189091-letter-i-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
