It features a 135-degree split point with web thinning for faster penetration and reduced walking on hard surfaces. The bronze coating helps resist heat buildup and extends tool life in demanding applications. With a straight cylindrical shank, two spiral flutes in a regular helix, and an overall length of 3.375 inches, this bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in ferrous metals. It is part of the Series HX10-HX15-HX18 lineup and conforms to ANSI standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium workpieces. It performs well in production and maintenance environments where accurate small-diameter hole work is required. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals commonly use this size for tapping clearance holes, precision hole sizing, and component fabrication. The 13xD flute-to-diameter ratio and tapered web configuration support chip evacuation in deeper cuts up to 2.1875 inches of flute length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire size 17 (0.1730 inches) straight cylindrical shank for standard chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning reduces thrust and minimizes drill walking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze-coated M2 high speed steel construction improves heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo regular-spiral flutes with tapered web design promote efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum drilling depth of 2.1875 inches suits through-hole and deep-hole applications in thin to medium stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant geometry ensures dimensional consistency across production use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill bit in the PRECISION TWIST DRILL Series HX10-HX15-HX18.

Secure the shank firmly in a keyed or keyless chuck to prevent slippage under load. A licensed machinist or qualified maintenance technician should verify that cutting speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material before drilling. Do not exceed the rated maximum drilling depth of 2.1875 inches without retracting to clear chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\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 with Web Thinning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HX10-HX15-HX18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04167 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 5995768\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692434293042,"sku":"5995768","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/81de5d15882edb9af16c3e5a7a8ee62a_3d38e88d-bca2-4b12-bf76-04e0dddb58a4.jpg?v=1788297402","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5995768-wire-17-hss-jobber-drill","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
