Value Collection 01430313 Extra Length Drill Bit Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 01430313 is an extra length high-speed steel drill bit designed for deep-hole drilling applications where standard-length bits cannot reach. With a 0.4844-inch diameter and a 118-degree standard point angle, this bit delivers accurate starts and consistent cutting in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The oxide finish provides moderate lubricity and surface protection. At 12 inches overall length with a 9-inch spiral flute, it gives tradespeople and machinists the reach needed to drill through thick stock, deep cavities, or stacked materials in a single pass. It is suited for use in drill presses, milling machines, and hand-held power drills with appropriate chucks.

This extra length drill bit is used in metalworking, fabrication, mechanical contracting, and maintenance-repair-operations environments where standard flute lengths are insufficient. Typical applications include drilling through structural steel, pipe, plate, and deep cross-members. The right-hand cutting direction and straight-cylindrical shank make it compatible with conventional drill chucks across a range of machine types. General-purpose grade construction makes it a practical stock item for shops and field service kits that encounter varied material types on a regular basis.

Key Features

• 0.4844-inch diameter with 118-degree standard point angle for accurate entry and consistent hole geometry
• 12-inch overall length and 9-inch flute length for deep-hole reach beyond standard bit capability
• High-speed steel construction for durability in general-purpose metal drilling
• Oxide finish for surface lubricity and basic corrosion resistance during storage and use
• 2-flute spiral design with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust and improved chip evacuation
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose extra length drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks accepting straight-cylindrical shanks in drill presses, milling machines, and hand-held power drills.

Installation Notes

Extra length drill bits should be installed by machinists or qualified tradespeople familiar with metal-cutting operations. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck and verify zero runout before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being drilled to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Reduce feed pressure compared to standard-length bits to minimize deflection and bit breakage at extended lengths.
