The bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and cuts with less axial thrust than a conventional 118-degree geometry. A straw finish indicates the heat treatment applied during manufacture. Right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations. This bit is a standard production tool used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with hard or abrasive stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 01198423 is suited for light-duty drilling in metalworking, mechanical maintenance, and fabrication environments where a small-diameter, precision wire-gauge hole is required. Typical applications include pilot holes, tapping prep for small-thread fasteners, and instrumentation or sensor port drilling in stainless steel components. The 2.25-inch overall length and 1.25-inch flute length fit standard drill chucks and quick-change collet systems. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, CNC machines, and hand-held power drills with a stable workholding setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt construction provides heat resistance and hardness retention when cutting stainless steel and hardened materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust, minimizes bit walking, and improves hole entry accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge No. 42 size at 0.0935 inches decimal for precise small-diameter hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand regular spiral flutes with 1.25-inch flute length for effective chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank at 0.0935 inches diameter fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty grade rating for demanding production and maintenance drilling tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard wire-gauge jobber drill bit compatible with any drill press, CNC machining center, or hand-held power drill equipped with a chuck capable of holding a 0.0935-inch straight shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecure the workpiece firmly in a vise or fixture before drilling to prevent movement and bit breakage at this small diameter. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel to reduce heat buildup and extend bit life. Set spindle speed according to standard feeds-and-speeds references for the specific material and cobalt tooling diameter. Inspect the split point for chipping before each use, as small-diameter cobalt bits are susceptible to breakage if run at incorrect speeds or with excessive side load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 42\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0935 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0935 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\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\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: 01198423\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699653837106,"sku":"01198423","price":42.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/95c80ef33b4a0178c871fc540b9c46d9.jpg?v=1788378745","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01198423-cobalt-jobber-drill-bit-no-42","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
