It is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide finish that reduces friction and provides basic corrosion resistance. The bit measures 0.0860 inches in diameter, corresponding to Wire Size 44, and features a 118-degree standard point angle suitable for a wide range of materials. Overall length is 4.25 inches with a flute length of 2.25 inches. The tapered web configuration and web-thinned point improve chip evacuation and reduce thrust during drilling. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use in drill presses, CNC machines, and hand-held drill motors in both shop and field environments. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly into standard chucks without adapters. The right-hand spiral flute and regular spiral type make it appropriate for general-purpose through-hole and blind-hole drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The black oxide finish performs best in lower-heat applications and moderate-speed drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHSS construction provides hardness and wear resistance for general-purpose drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish reduces friction and offers light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle compatible with a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web configuration improves chip flow and lowers required thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut spiral flute clears chips efficiently during standard drilling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks accepting a straight-cylindrical shank at 0.0860 inch (Wire Size 44) diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecure the shank fully in a properly sized chuck before operation and verify runout before beginning a drilling cycle. Power down the machine and disconnect or lock out energy sources before changing bits or clearing chip buildup. Use cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Follow applicable shop safety standards and wear appropriate eye protection during all drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 inches (Wire Size 44)\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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 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: 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: 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\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: 01408442\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51702166126898,"sku":"01408442","price":87.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a78d6f3e2cf40348af26513eed78a45e.jpg?v=1788409730","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01408442-taper-length-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
