Built to Series M40CO specifications, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on contact and lowers the thrust needed to start the hole. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks and machine spindles. The spiral flute geometry runs at a 2.5xD ratio, promoting chip evacuation in short, confined bores. This bit is a go-to tool for machinists, maintenance techs, and fabricators working on hard-material applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScrew machine length drill bits are shorter than jobber-length bits, which makes them stiffer and better suited for drilling on lathes, screw machines, CNC machining centers, and drill presses where rigidity and concentricity matter. The 0.4531-inch diameter places this bit in the 29\/64-inch fractional size range. Its compact overall length keeps deflection to a minimum when drilling hard stock, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, or other tough workpiece materials. Web thinning on the tapered web reduces cutting resistance at the point, which extends tool life in high-cycle production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt M40 material grade for heat resistance and durability in hard-material drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walk and lowers entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web decreases cutting resistance and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body provides added rigidity over jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip evacuation in short-bore applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for dimensional consistency and interchangeability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a heavy-duty OEM-style replacement or direct-application drill bit for use in standard straight-shank drill chucks, lathe tailstocks, and CNC tool holders accepting a 0.4531-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before powering the machine, and confirm chuck key removal before spindle activation. Do not exceed the machine spindle speed recommended for cobalt tooling in the target workpiece material. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; use external flood or mist coolant when drilling hard or heat-sensitive materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29\/64\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4531 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5625 inches (3-9\/16)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches (2-1\/8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M40 Grade)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: M40CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.083 pounds\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: 5995952\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711923683634,"sku":"5995952","price":38.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d0fc5f6262074872d44705f45fbae1b7_76f5aaee-a955-4f82-9436-b9ddc655febf.jpg?v=1788481433","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5995952-cobalt-screw-machine-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
