Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide finish, this bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on contact and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. At 3-1\/8 inches overall length, it fits compact drill configurations common in maintenance, fabrication, and production environments. The web-thinned parallel web construction reduces cutting resistance and improves chip evacuation during through-hole drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloy, stainless steel, and general steel stock. The mechanics-length body — shorter than a jobber bit — provides added rigidity in tight clearance situations and reduces deflection in interrupted cuts. It is a practical choice for HVAC technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and general maintenance mechanics drilling pilot holes, conduit knockouts, and fastener clearance holes in structural or sheet metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and eliminates the need for center punching on most metal surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands heat generated during metal drilling without rapid edge degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating provides basic lubricity and corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length (3-1\/8 inches OAL) offers greater rigidity than jobber-length bits in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned parallel web reduces thrust load and improves chip flow through the 1-15\/16 inch flute length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flutes compatible with standard clockwise-rotating drill drivers and drill presses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose mechanics-length HSS drill bit suitable for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks and drill press spindles accepting straight-cylindrical shanks at 13\/64 inch (0.2031 inch) diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling stainless steel or high alloy materials to extend cutting edge life and reduce work hardening. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent rotation. Select drill speed based on material hardness and bit diameter — lower RPM is appropriate for harder materials. Inspect the cutting edges before use and replace the bit if chipping or dullness is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/64 inches (0.2031 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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-15\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, High Alloy Steel, High Tensile Strength Alloy, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 20909\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695324856626,"sku":"20909","price":33.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bc411388be759772078116f619099da1.jpg?v=1788333917","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-20909-mechanics-drill-bit-13-64-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
