Ground from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish, this bit resists corrosion and reduces friction during cutting. It measures 0.089 inches in diameter (Wire Size 43) with a 118-degree standard point angle, a right-hand spiral flute, and a straight-cylindrical shank. The tapered web configuration and web-thinned point reduce thrust and improve chip evacuation in longer-reach drilling applications. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians use this style of bit where standard-length drills cannot reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis taper length drill bit is suited for production machining, toolroom work, and maintenance drilling where extra reach is required. The longer flute length of 2.25 inches and overall length of 4.25 inches allow access to recessed features and deeper hole depths compared to a jobber-length bit. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held power drills with a suitable chuck. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks without an adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHSS construction handles a wide range of workpiece materials including mild steel, aluminum, and thermoplastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish reduces surface friction and provides light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle works with most general-purpose drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper length body with 2.25-inch flute provides extended reach beyond standard jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces cutting thrust and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute ejects chips cleanly during through-hole and blind-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with any standard three-jaw chuck or collet system accepting a straight-cylindrical shank at 0.089 inches diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement. Ensure the spindle speed is appropriate for the workpiece material and bit diameter — smaller diameter bits require higher RPM. Apply cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 43\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.089 inches\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: 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: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, 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: 0.06 pounds\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: 01408434\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717903581490,"sku":"01408434","price":87.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3caef6cb47115d6a6870d1f385d3deb9.jpg?v=1788547345","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01408434-taper-length-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
