Designed for high-performance drilling in hard and difficult-to-machine materials, this bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on entry and lowers the thrust required to start a hole. The overall length is 1-11\/16 inches with an 11\/16-inch flute, and the flute-to-diameter ratio is 2.5xD. The straight cylindrical shank and web-thinned, tapered web construction make this a purpose-built tool for production and maintenance drilling applications. This is a single-piece package sold in minimum quantities of 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for use in hard materials where standard high-speed steel tooling dulls prematurely. The screw machine length profile provides rigidity in short-reach setups, making it well suited for drill press work, CNC turret drilling, and manual machine operations where compact tooling is preferred. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die professionals commonly use this size for tapping prep, small fastener clearance holes, and precision drilling in steel, stainless, and other ferrous alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge No. 48 size, 0.076-inch decimal diameter for precision small-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt (M41 grade) construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates center punch requirement on most metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew machine length (1-11\/16 inches OAL) provides rigidity and control in tight setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web improves chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with straight cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks and collets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards; rated heavy duty for demanding production environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard screw machine length drill bit with a straight cylindrical shank, this bit is compatible with any drill chuck or collet rated for 0.076-inch shanks in drill presses, CNC machines, and hand-held power tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is installed and replaced by machinists, maintenance technicians, and toolroom professionals. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify runout before beginning a cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling hard ferrous materials to extend tool life and control heat. Inspect the cutting edges for wear regularly, especially in high-cycle production use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.076 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt (M41 grade)\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: Split\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: 0.076 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: M41CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 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: 5996114\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699531514162,"sku":"5996114","price":48.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aa2be07eba6984ccd5f161f94448d961_3a35b62f-965e-4467-91ba-520ecb16862b.jpg?v=1788377041","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996114-no-48-cobalt-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
