Value Collection SC0400042 Hss Core Drill Bit 21/32 in 4 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC0400042 is a high-speed steel straight core drill bit designed for precision hole drilling in metal, wood, and similar materials. The bit measures 21/32 inches (0.6563 inches decimal) in diameter with a 9-inch overall length and a 5.125-inch flute length. The oxide coating provides added surface hardness and mild corrosion resistance. With a 4-flute geometry and a 118-degree included angle, this bit is suited for trades professionals who need consistent, repeatable hole quality in production or field applications.

This core drill bit is appropriate for metalworking, fabrication, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work where hole saws or twist drills are not the right tool. The straight shank fits standard drill chucks. Right-hand cutting and right-hand spiral direction make it compatible with conventional clockwise-rotating drills and drill presses. The 9-inch overall length provides reach into deeper assemblies or framing cavities where shorter bits would not clear.

Key Features

• 4-flute design improves chip evacuation and hole wall finish
• 118-degree included angle — standard geometry for general-purpose drilling
• Oxide finish adds surface hardness and mild corrosion resistance
• 9-inch OAL with 5.125-inch flute length for deep-reach applications
• Right-hand cut and spiral for use with standard clockwise-rotating drill equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose straight-shank core drill bit compatible with standard drill chucks and drill presses used in metal fabrication, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade applications.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed and operated by machinists, fabricators, and trade professionals using standard drill presses or handheld drill equipment. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before operation and confirm the workpiece is clamped or otherwise restrained. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and reduce heat buildup. Follow applicable shop safety standards and wear eye protection during operation.
