Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish, this bit offers improved lubricity and basic corrosion resistance during cutting operations. It features a 0.154-inch diameter, a 118-degree standard point angle, and a 3-inch flute length, making it longer than a jobber-length drill while remaining practical for deep-hole drilling applications. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. Web thinning reduces thrust requirements and aids chip evacuation at the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper length drill is suited for machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials. The extended flute length accommodates deeper bores than standard jobber bits without requiring a secondary reamer or step drill. Common applications include through-hole drilling in plate stock, structural steel, and general fabrication work where a standard jobber bit falls short on reach. The right-hand spiral flute pulls chips up and out of the bore during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHSS construction for durability across a wide range of machinable metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish reduces friction and provides light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle suits general-purpose drilling in most materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch flute length provides extended reach beyond standard jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute promotes efficient chip removal during drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces point thrust and improves hole entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks and drill press spindles accepting a straight-cylindrical shank.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify runout before drilling production holes. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being drilled to extend tool life and improve hole finish. Always wear eye protection and secure workpieces firmly before drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.154 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 23\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-3\/8 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: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 01408236\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722525573426,"sku":"01408236","price":21.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/744b6af1a7573120cfb111d55350854b.jpg?v=1788592384","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01408236-taper-length-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
