Built to the M41CO series specification, this bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. At 2-7\/16 inches overall length with a 1-5\/16 inch flute length, the stub-length geometry provides rigidity and minimizes deflection in short-reach drilling applications. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians rely on this style bit for production drilling in tight clearances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling hard ferrous metals, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and other tough workpiece materials where heat buildup and edge wear are primary concerns. The screw machine length profile fits standard drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held drill motors with 3\/8-inch or larger chucks. The 2.5xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip evacuation at moderate feed rates. Wire size 2 corresponds to 0.221 inches, placing this bit in the 0.2000 to 0.2500 inch diameter range. It is sold individually with no minimum order beyond one unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM41 cobalt steel construction handles elevated cutting temperatures in hard and stainless materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates center-punch requirement on most setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web geometry improves chip flow and reduces torque demand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine (stub) length provides extra rigidity and reduced deflection versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with regular helix evacuates chips efficiently during through-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for dimensional accuracy and heavy-duty grade performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or working bit for any application requiring a 0.221 inch diameter, straight-shank drill bit in screw machine length.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling hard ferrous or stainless materials to extend tool life, noting that this bit does not support through-tool coolant. Follow ANSI B11 machine tool safety guidelines and wear appropriate eye protection during all drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.221 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/16 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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M41 Grade)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: M41CO\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 Point\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 5996098\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51713290699058,"sku":"5996098","price":16.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aa2be07eba6984ccd5f161f94448d961_fb3386be-2d54-4306-89c4-1ffa147fb225.jpg?v=1788492574","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996098-cobalt-drill-bit-0-221-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
