Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating, it handles heat and wear in production and maintenance environments. The bit carries a wire gauge size of 38, equivalent to 0.1015 inch decimal diameter, with a standard 118-degree point angle and a web-thinned tip that reduces the force needed to start and penetrate a hole. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. Licensed technicians, machinists, and trade professionals working in tight clearance or confined areas favor the shorter screw machine length over jobber-length bits for better control and rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in residential and light commercial maintenance, HVAC equipment fabrication, plumbing rough-in work, and electrical panel or enclosure work where small-diameter pilot or clearance holes are needed. The 13\/16-inch flute length and 1-13\/16-inch overall length make it well-suited for applications where a jobber-length bit would flex or chatter. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 12 units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 38 (0.1015 inch decimal diameter) for precise small-diameter hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide finish for heat resistance and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned tip for easier penetration and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (1-13\/16 inches overall) provides greater rigidity than jobber-length bits in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or production-use drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.1015-inch diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by trade professionals or machinists using a standard drill press, hand drill, or right-angle drill with a compatible chuck. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or dulling is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1015 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool 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\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-13\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 inches\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\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: 0.0045 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241635\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: 01358381\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51712691437874,"sku":"01358381","price":34.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b64081c28d61bce1b20bb4137b4d6818.jpg?v=1788487833","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01358381-screw-machine-drill-bit-size-38","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
