Value Collection 01400084 Taper Length Drill 0.1250 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01400084 is a taper length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and similar materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish, it offers improved lubricity and basic corrosion resistance during standard drilling operations. The bit features a 118-degree point angle with web thinning for easier penetration and reduced thrust. A straight-cylindrical shank provides reliable chuck engagement across common 3-jaw and keyless drill chucks. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators use this bit for through-hole and deeper-reach drilling where a jobber-length bit falls short.

This drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in shop and field environments. The taper length design provides additional flute length compared to standard jobber bits, making it appropriate for deeper holes without requiring extensions. The right-hand spiral flute efficiently evacuates chips during drilling. With a flute length of 2.75 inches and an overall length of 5.125 inches, it reaches deeper workpiece sections while maintaining rigidity in a standard drill press or hand drill setup.

Key Features

• HSS construction handles a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Black oxide finish reduces friction and provides mild corrosion resistance
• 118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for reduced entry thrust
• Taper length body extends reach beyond standard jobber-length bits
• Right-hand spiral flute promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw and keyless drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with standard drill presses, CNC drilling machines, and hand drills equipped with chucks sized to accept a 0.1250-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance personnel familiar with drilling operations. Secure the workpiece fully before drilling to prevent movement or injury. Ensure the drill chuck is tightened properly before operating. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling hardened or heat-sensitive materials to extend tool life.
