It measures 0.199 inches in diameter with a 3-5\/8 inch overall length and a 2-1\/8 inch flute length. The 135-degree split point reduces walking on contact and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The oxide finish provides basic corrosion resistance and reduces friction during cutting. Right-hand spiral flutes clear chips efficiently. This bit suits production shops, maintenance technicians, and metalworking trades requiring a reliable, short-body drill for tight-clearance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mechanics drill bit is intended for use in metal-cutting applications involving carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloys, and stainless steel. The shorter mechanics length body improves rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, making it well suited for drill press work, CNC setup, and hand-drill operations where deflection is a concern. It is a practical choice for HVAC techs, plumbers, pipefitters, and general maintenance mechanics drilling sheet metal, brackets, pipe flanges, and structural steel components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walking and eliminates the need for center punching on most metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length body at 3-5\/8 inches overall provides added rigidity over standard jobber bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, and high alloy steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and offers basic corrosion protection during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web configuration improves cutting efficiency and reduces thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flutes for standard drilling machines and hand drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose mechanics-length drill bit compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks on benchtop drill presses, magnetic drills, and handheld power drills.

Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent rotation. Apply cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel or high alloy materials to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Do not exceed the recommended RPM for the bit diameter and workpiece material; consult the drill manufacturer speed chart before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.199 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, High Alloy Steel, High Tensile Strength Alloy, Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 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: 20808\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690710925618,"sku":"20808","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7ce8f2e3fe30c2df3cd4015819b19d39.jpg?v=1788274335","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-20808-mechanics-drill-bit-0-199-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
