Value Collection 01392158 Taper Length Drill 0.2008 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01392158 is a taper length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and similar materials. It features a 0.2008-inch (5.10 mm) diameter and a 118-degree standard drill point angle, making it suitable for a wide range of production and maintenance drilling tasks. The bit is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish that provides moderate corrosion resistance and helps reduce friction during cutting. A web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements at the point. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance professionals use this bit in standard drill presses, lathes, and hand-held power drills.

This taper length drill bit is suited for shop floor and field maintenance applications where a longer flute length is needed to reach greater depths than a jobber-length bit allows. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks without adapters. Its general-purpose grade makes it a practical choice for drilling through mild steel, aluminum, plastics, and similar workpiece materials in light industrial and mechanical service environments.

Key Features

• 0.2008-inch (5.10 mm) drill diameter for precise hole sizing
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry and centering
• HSS construction handles the heat and wear demands of metal drilling
• Black oxide finish reduces friction and provides mild corrosion resistance
• Web-thinned tapered web lowers cutting thrust at the drill point
• Right-hand spiral flute with regular spiral promotes efficient chip evacuation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck or drill press accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.2008-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with drill press and hand drill operation. Secure the workpiece properly before drilling and ensure the chuck is tightened fully on the straight shank before starting the spindle. Power down and de-energize the machine before changing bits or adjusting chuck position. Do not exceed the recommended speed range for the workpiece material and bit diameter.
