Built on a high speed steel body with a carbide-tipped cutting edge, this bit maintains edge integrity longer than standard HSS bits in demanding applications. It measures 5\/32 inch in diameter with an overall length of 5.5 inches and features a half-flat shank for secure chuck engagement. The 118-degree drill point angle suits general-purpose drilling in metal, wood, and composite materials. This listing includes 10 bits per package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use in fabrication shops, HVAC sheet metal work, plumbing rough-in, and electrical trade applications where frequent drilling through hard substrates is required. The half-flat shank reduces bit slippage in standard three-jaw chucks, making it a practical choice for high-repetition drilling tasks on the job site or in the shop. Carbide-tipped construction extends service life in materials that would rapidly dull a standard HSS bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbide-tipped cutting edge on a high speed steel body for extended wear life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree drill point angle for general-purpose use across multiple materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHalf-flat shank design minimizes slippage in three-jaw drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/32 inch diameter with 5.5 inch overall length for reach in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a 10-piece pack for job site and shop inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose carbide-tipped drill bit compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting a 5\/32 inch half-flat shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecure the half-flat shank firmly in the chuck before drilling to prevent spinning under load. Use appropriate speeds for the material being drilled — lower RPM is recommended for harder materials to preserve the carbide tip. Always wear eye protection when drilling. Inspect the tip for chipping or wear before each use and retire damaged bits to avoid workpiece damage or injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (0.1562 inch decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1575 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Half-Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide-Tipped High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 pieces\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: 38445\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690302046514,"sku":"38445","price":41.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4b4fe95a09a413f2eacde60a42f54098.jpg?v=1788268399","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-38445-carbide-tipped-spiral-drill-bit-5-32","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
