Sized at 0.323 inches (Letter P) in diameter, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and lowers the thrust required to start a hole. The M42 cobalt steel construction provides heat resistance during heavy-duty cutting applications. Web thinning improves chip clearance and cutting efficiency. This bit is suited for machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with stainless steel, hardened alloys, and other demanding workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is built for screw machine length applications where a shorter, more rigid tool is preferred over a jobber-length bit. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks on drill presses, CNC machines, screw machines, and hand-held power drills. Its 2.5xD flute-to-diameter ratio and regular spiral flute geometry support controlled chip evacuation in production and shop environments. It is sold individually and is appropriate for professional metalworking and industrial maintenance use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt steel construction for heat resistance and durability in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and decreases required feed pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web configuration improves chip flow and cutting efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body provides added rigidity compared to jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for geometry and dimensional tolerancing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks on drill presses, screw machines, CNC equipment, and hand-held power drills.

Secure the shank fully in the drill chuck and confirm runout is within acceptable limits before cutting. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling hard materials to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.323 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-15\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/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 (M42)\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\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Performance \/ Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.083 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 5996515\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709082337586,"sku":"5996515","price":24.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/691739fe851d894f4ec47cb5cae18c43_570d783d-0b2b-4a1b-9949-2da406e75329.jpg?v=1788450995","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996515-cobalt-drill-bit-0-323-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
