View Answer
Explanation: Flute length is the length measured parallel to the axis between the dead centre and the point of termination of flute near the neck. Body length is the length measured along the axis between the dead centre and start of neck.
3. In twist drill, distance measured between the chisel edge corner and the outer corner is known as
a) Body length
b) Flute length
c) Lip length
d) Overall length
View Answer
Explanation: Lip length is the length measured between the chisel edge corner and the outer corner. Body length is the length measured along the axis between the dead centre and start of a neck.
4. In twist drills, length measured along the axis between the dead centre and the extreme end of the tang is known as
a) Body length
b) Flute length
c) Lip length
d) Overall length
View Answer
Explanation: Overall length is the length measured along the axis between the dead centre and the extreme end of the tang. Body length is the length measured along the axis between the dead centre and start of neck.
5. Reduction in body diameter measured along the radius of twist drill is known as
a) Body length
b) Lead of helix
c) Depth of body clearance

View Answer
Explanation: Depth of body clearance is a reduction in body diameter measured along radius of twist drill.
6. Web taper is also known as
a) Body length
b) Lead of helix
c) Depth of body clearance
d) Core taper
View Answer
Explanation: Core taper is the increase in core thickness. Web taper is also known as core taper.
