It measures 0.0625 inches (1\/16 inch) in diameter with a 3-inch overall length and a 1.75-inch flute length, giving it a 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio suited for deeper drilling operations. The 135-degree split point promotes self-centering entry and reduces the need for a center punch on most materials. The right-hand spiral flute with web-thinned, tapered web geometry improves chip evacuation and reduces cutting torque. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in production or MRO environments are the primary users of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is built for high-performance cutting across a broad range of materials. The cobalt tool material provides heat resistance and edge retention when working in alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, hardened steel, nickel alloys, high-strength bronze, and non-ferrous metals including aluminum, brass, copper, and magnesium alloys. It is also rated for use in reinforced plastics and cermet. The straight shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters, making it compatible with bench drills, drill presses, and hand-held power drills in both shop and field settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt tool material for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point for self-centering entry and reduced feed force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web construction improves chip flow and reduces cutting resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.75-inch flute length with 6xD ratio supports deeper hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight shank fits standard drill chucks with no adapter required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI standards; heavy-duty grade construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for use in alloy steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze, carbon steel, cast iron, cermet, copper, graphite, hardened steel, high-strength bronze, magnesium, magnesium alloy, malleable iron, nickel, nickel alloy, reinforced plastic materials, and stainless steel as specified by the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the straight shank securely in a drill chuck, ensuring the chuck key is tightened evenly before use. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the workpiece material to extend tool life, particularly when drilling stainless steel or nickel alloys. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling to prevent movement and maintain hole accuracy. This bit does not support coolant-through delivery; apply cutting fluid externally at the entry point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0625 inches (1\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute-to-Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6xD\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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0625 inches (1\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: M51CO\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: 0.04167 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: 5996565\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701662220594,"sku":"5996565","price":140.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4384cf74ba866935d20ba7e6fe2e223a_9e92956d-322f-444d-8e3f-c7559869da75.jpg?v=1788403332","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996565-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
