Built from high speed steel with a bronze coating, it features a 135-degree split-point tip and a web-thinned, tapered web geometry that reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust force at the drill point. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.2040 inches in diameter and fits standard drill chucks without adapters. At 3.75 inches overall length with a 2.5-inch flute, this bit suits hand drills, drill presses, and CNC spindles alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jobber bit is intended for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium in production and maintenance environments. The HX10-HX15-HX18 series targets applications where a reliable general-purpose HSS bit is preferred over carbide for interrupted cuts or hand-held work. It is sold individually and is a common stock item for tool cribs, service vans, and shop floor tooling stations serving metalworking trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size number 6 — 0.2040-inch diameter for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces walking and lowers thrust on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBronze coating improves lubricity and surface hardness over uncoated HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces chisel edge load in harder materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with regular helix clears chips efficiently in through-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-standard geometry — compatible with standard jobber-length drill holders and chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through — suited for conventional flood, mist, or dry drilling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard straight-shank drill chucks on drill presses, hand drills, and CNC machining centers.

Apply appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium to extend tool life and manage heat buildup. Inspect the drill point for chipping or wear before each use, particularly after drilling abrasive or work-hardened materials. Drilling should be performed by qualified machinists or tradespeople following applicable shop safety procedures and equipment manufacturer guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Number 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2040 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard split point, web-thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, regular helix\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.75 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: 0.2040 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, web-thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High speed steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Margin\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HX10-HX15-HX18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.005 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: PRECISION TWIST DRILL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5995498\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697857495346,"sku":"5995498","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/81de5d15882edb9af16c3e5a7a8ee62a_0b6e3cd3-5614-43a4-b5ef-3dc3daa413a4.jpg?v=1788355098","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5995498-jobber-drill-bit-6-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
