It is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish. The 140-degree split point reduces walking on entry and cuts through material with less feed pressure than a standard 118-degree point. The fast spiral flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation, making it well suited for production drilling and maintenance work. Web thinning at the point reduces thrust requirements and extends tool life in steel applications. At 5.25 inches overall length with a 3.875-inch flute length, this is a standard jobber-length geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use in a wide range of trade and industrial applications including HVAC, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and general fabrication work. It is suited for hand-held drill motors, drill presses, and CNC drilling operations where a straight-shank, Letter Y (0.4040 inch) diameter is required. The straight cylindrical shank seats in standard three-jaw chucks without the need for a special adapter. Typical workpiece materials include mild steel, structural aluminum, copper, brass, and wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetter Y size: 0.4040 inch diameter for precise sizing within the 0.4000-0.5000 inch decimal range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140-degree standard split point reduces bit walk and lowers required feed pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast spiral flute geometry accelerates chip removal in metals and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel (HSS) construction provides durability across general-purpose drilling tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces cutting resistance and heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction compatible with standard drill motors and drill presses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill bit compatible with any standard three-jaw chuck accepting a 0.4040-inch straight cylindrical shank, including hand drills, drill presses, and CNC spindles conforming to ANSI standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals using standard drill equipment. Secure the straight shank fully in a three-jaw chuck and verify concentricity before drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before beginning.
