Value Collection 63323364 Screw Machine Drill Bit 3/64 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 63323364 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for close-tolerance drilling in metal, plastic, and general-purpose materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating for improved lubricity and wear resistance, this bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on contact and requires no center punch in most applications. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 0.0469 inches in diameter, and the overall length is 1-3/8 inches, making it suited to work in tight clearances where standard-length bits cannot reach. Licensed HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors keep screw machine bits on hand for sheet metal, bracket, and enclosure work.

This bit is a general-purpose, short-series drill bit intended for use in hand drills, drill presses, and CNC equipment where short flute length and rigid geometry improve hole accuracy. With a 1/2-inch flute length and a 0.0469-inch cutting diameter (3/64 inches), it is well suited to drilling small-diameter holes in thin-gauge steel, aluminum, and similar materials. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 12 units, making it practical for shop stocking or van stock replenishment.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point reduces drill walk and eliminates the need for a center punch on most surfaces
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Oxide coating improves surface lubricity and extends cutting life in general-purpose applications
• Screw machine (stub) length body increases rigidity and accuracy in tight-clearance drilling
• Web-thinned parallel web configuration reduces cutting resistance and heat buildup
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose screw machine length drill bit compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 0.0469-inch straight shank. Suitable for use in hand drills, benchtop drill presses, and CNC drilling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with drilling operations in the applicable material. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and confirm chuck key removal prior to powering the drill. Use cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to reduce heat and extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace bits that show signs of chipping, dulling, or tip damage to maintain hole quality and prevent breakage.
