Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and requires less feed pressure at the start of a cut. The Weldon flat shank with three flats locks securely in compatible chucks to prevent slipping under torque. At 9\/16 inch diameter with a 5-inch overall length, this bit is sized for general maintenance and production drilling tasks performed by machinists, maintenance mechanics, and trade professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mechanics-length drill bit is suited for drilling carbon steel, cast iron, high alloy steel, high tensile strength alloy, stainless steel, and steel workpieces. The shorter mechanics length provides added rigidity compared to jobber-length bits, making it a practical choice in tight spaces or when drilling thicker stock where deflection is a concern. It is commonly used in maintenance, repair, and fabrication settings across industrial and commercial facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and lowers required feed pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles hard and abrasive metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeldon flat shank with three flats prevents chuck slippage under heavy torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating provides basic corrosion resistance and reduces friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length for added rigidity and control in tight or deep drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flutes with 3-inch flute length for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with drill presses, milling machines, and hand drills equipped with chucks accepting a 1\/2-inch Weldon flat shank.

Ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped before beginning any drilling operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel or high alloy materials to extend bit life and manage heat. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point is damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches (0.5625 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\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: Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\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\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\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: 20952\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68388906139954,"sku":"20952","price":59.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/26cd8c7df3ef6717937accbc4ca3a2d4.jpg?v=1793904900","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-20952-9-16-inch-mechanics-drill-bit-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
