It carries a standard 118-degree point angle, a spiral regular-helix flute, and a straight-cylindrical shank measuring 0.25 inches in diameter — the same as the cutting diameter, making it compatible with standard 1\/4-inch chucks and collets. At 4 inches overall length with a 2.75-inch flute, this is a general-purpose bit suited for everyday metal, wood, and plastic drilling in production and maintenance environments. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional drill presses and handheld power tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is used across light manufacturing, fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and general trade work where a letter-E (0.2500-inch decimal) hole is required. The web-thinned, tapered-web construction reduces thrust requirements at breakthrough, making it a practical choice for repetitive drilling tasks in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and thermoplastics. The oxide finish helps the cutting edges run cooler in dry or lightly lubricated applications without the added cost of TiN or TiAlN coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter E sizing — 0.2500 inches decimal equivalent for precision fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across a wide range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and provides light corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web lowers cutting thrust and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank accepts standard 1\/4-inch chucks and collets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock drill bit for any application requiring a letter E or 0.2500-inch diameter hole.

Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubrication when drilling ferrous metals to extend edge life. Ensure the workpiece is clamped securely to prevent walking at breakthrough. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace when the bit begins to require excessive feed force or produces rough hole finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular Helix\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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: KP65106\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710839521586,"sku":"KP65106","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c6ea336774da0b5fbb0734ee7299d1e9.jpg?v=1788471218","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-kp65106-jobber-drill-bit-letter-e-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
