Mechanics Length Drill Bit 1/4 in
The Cle-Line C23842 is a mechanics length drill bit sized at 1/4 inch with a 135-degree point angle. It is made from high-speed steel and finished in black and gold for machining tasks. This fractional-inch tool suits maintenance and repair work where a shorter, rigid bit is preferred.
135-Degree Point and High-Speed Steel
The 135-degree split point reduces walking on hard surfaces and improves centring without a centre punch. High-speed steel handles general-purpose drilling in steel, cast iron and non-ferrous metals. The mechanics length keeps the flute shorter than jobber bits, limiting reach in deep holes.
Straight Shank Fits Standard Chucks
The straight shank fits three-jaw chucks on handheld drills and drill presses without adapters. The black-and-gold surface treatment helps identify the bit and adds lubricity during cutting. Users must match the 1/4-inch shank to chuck capacity and avoid excessive side load that can snap the shorter flute.

Questions about this item
Which Cle-Line mechanics length drill bit should I choose for a 1/4 inch hole?
The C23842 is the 1/4 inch size with a .2500 measurement and 135 degree point angle.
What does the 135 degree point do when I start drilling?
The 135 degree split point centers the bit quickly and reduces walking on metal surfaces.
How does the high speed steel material affect the bit's performance?
High speed steel resists heat during drilling and holds a sharp edge longer in metal cutting.
