Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish for improved lubricity and corrosion resistance, this bit features a 0.1440 inch diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle. The web-thinned, tapered web construction reduces thrust at the point and improves chip evacuation. Licensed trades and machining professionals rely on this geometry for cleaner entry holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling operations in fabrication shops, maintenance and repair environments, and light manufacturing settings. The taper length body provides additional flute length compared to standard jobber bits, making it appropriate for deeper hole applications where chip clearance and rigidity must be balanced. It is sold individually and is a practical replacement or supplemental bit for trade tool kits requiring wire-gauge sizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.1440 inch diameter corresponding to wire gauge size #27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned tip for reduced entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHSS construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish improves lubricity and reduces friction during drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.0 inch flute length with regular right-hand spiral for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit with a straight-cylindrical shank, compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks and drill presses accepting bits of 0.1440 inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed by trade machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworkers using standard drill presses or hand-held electric drills with compatible chuck capacity. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify chuck key removal prior to starting the machine. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Do not exceed the recommended feed rate for the material being drilled, as excessive pressure can cause premature tip failure on small-diameter bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1440 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Gauge Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: #27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Right-Hand Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 01408277\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717201068338,"sku":"01408277","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c6139490a77b302f58cfa91e349a9afa.jpg?v=1788536829","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01408277-taper-length-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
