Value Collection SC0200022 Hss Core Drill 11/32 in 3 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC0200022 is a high-speed steel straight core drill bit designed for precision hole-making in metal, wood, and similar materials. Built with three flutes and an oxide finish, this bit measures 11/32 inch (0.3438 inch decimal) in cutting diameter with an overall length of 6.5 inches and a flute length of 4.125 inches. The straight shank seats directly into standard drill chucks without adapters. Right-hand spiral and right-hand cutting direction suit the most common drill setups used in trade and shop environments. The 118-degree included angle is a general-purpose point geometry suited for a wide range of materials. Tradespeople, machinists, and maintenance technicians reach for this bit when consistent bore diameter and chip evacuation matter.

This core drill bit is suited for use in both handheld and bench-mounted drilling applications where a straight shank is required. It is appropriate for light-to-medium duty operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and wood composites. The 6.5-inch overall length provides added reach for deeper workpieces or applications where standard-length bits fall short. A single unit ships per package, making it a practical pick-up for service van stock or shop replenishment.

Compatibility

Designed as a straight-shank core drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks accepting 11/32-inch shank diameters in handheld drills, drill presses, and similar equipment.

Installation Notes

Secure the straight shank firmly in the drill chuck before operation and verify chuck key removal prior to powering on the tool. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece to prevent movement during drilling. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or damage before each use and replace the bit if the point shows signs of chipping or excessive dulling.
