Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating, it holds up through repeated use in production and maintenance environments. The bit carries a wire gauge size of 17, corresponding to a decimal diameter of 0.1730 inches. The 118-degree standard point angle suits a wide range of workpiece materials. Overall length is 2-3\/16 inches with a 1-1\/8 inch flute length, making this a stub-length bit well suited to drill press and hand-drill work where rigidity and reduced deflection matter. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the typical end users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScrew machine length drill bits are specified wherever a shorter, stiffer cutting tool is preferred over jobber-length bits. The reduced length limits deflection and improves hole straightness in applications such as tapping pilot holes, sheet metal work, and high-cycle production drilling. This bit features a regular spiral flute, a straight cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks, and right-hand cutting direction. The web-thinned, parallel-web construction reduces thrust and helps the point start cleanly without a center punch in many setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 17 — 0.1730 inch decimal diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide finish for wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub screw machine length (2-3\/16 inches OAL) reduces deflection versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web lowers cutting thrust and improves point engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock bit for use in standard drill presses, CNC turret machines, and hand drills equipped with a straight-shank chuck accepting bits in the 0.1500 to 0.2000 inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecure the shank fully in the drill chuck and tighten with a chuck key before operating.
