It is machined from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bronze bright coating and features a 135-degree split-point tip with web thinning for faster starts and reduced walking on hard surfaces. The 1\/4-inch diameter, two-flute spiral design clears chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole drilling. With a 4-inch overall length and 2-3\/4-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and magnetic drill press setups used daily by machinists, maintenance techs, and trade professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium in fabrication shops, mechanical rooms, and field service environments. The straight cylindrical shank with a 1\/4-inch diameter seats securely in keyed and keyless chucks without requiring adapters. It belongs to the HX10-HX15-HX18 series, which covers general-purpose jobber-length HSS bits conforming to ANSI standards. Typical applications include structural drilling, equipment repair, panel work, and maintenance drilling where a reliable, consistent-geometry bit is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split-point tip reduces walk and improves penetration on hard metals without a center punch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web construction lowers thrust requirements for cleaner entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles heat generated in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBronze bright coating provides light surface protection and reduced friction during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral, two-flute design promotes consistent chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-conforming geometry ensures compatibility with standard chuck and drill press setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for primary workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium (material codes P, M, K, S).

De-energize or unplug the drill before changing bits. When drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium, use a cutting fluid or cutting oil to manage heat and extend bit life. Do not exceed the recommended maximum drilling depth of 2-3\/4 inches for this bit length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/4 inches (2.7500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze Bright\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\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\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: 5996282\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715483697458,"sku":"5996282","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/22d40e0231bee961ad9abb3fc69dcca9_a4dcaa3a-b174-4248-a3d8-6f66ca05ea3d.jpg?v=1788514588","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996282-jobber-drill-bit-1-4-in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
