It produces a 0.0240-inch diameter hole and features a 130-degree split point with web thinning to reduce walking and improve penetration on entry. The slow spiral flute design is optimized for chip evacuation in softer workpiece materials. At 1.125 inches overall length with a 0.3125-inch flute, this bit suits precision drilling tasks where a short, rigid tool is required. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and production floor operators are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for aluminum and non-ferrous materials as its primary workpiece application. The slow spiral geometry controls chip load and reduces heat buildup when cutting soft metals, plastics, and similar materials. The straight cylindrical shank at 0.0240 inches diameter is compatible with standard collets, Jacobs chucks, and precision drill press fixtures. It is well suited for small-diameter through-hole work on printed circuit boards, instrument panels, sheet metal components, and similar light-duty production applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo. 73 wire size with 0.0240-inch decimal diameter for precision small-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130-degree split point with web thinning minimizes walking on entry without a center punch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow spiral flute promotes clean chip evacuation in aluminum and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides adequate heat resistance for general-purpose drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection of cutting edge condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute, right-hand cutting configuration compatible with standard rotating chuck setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for use with standard straight-shank drill chucks, collets, and precision drill press fixtures accepting a 0.0240-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should follow standard machining safety practices. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent rotation or shift. Ensure the chuck is tightened fully and the shank is fully seated before operation. At this diameter, excessive feed pressure can deflect or snap the bit — use light, consistent feed pressure appropriate for small-diameter HSS tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 73\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0240 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard with web thinning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slow spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0240 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High speed steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright, uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and non-ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: BS27N0073\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722041393458,"sku":"BS27N0073","price":60.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1b418e6580a7550549054d8f392eaeb5.jpg?v=1788584571","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-bs27n0073-no-73-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
