Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it carries a wire size designation of number 10, corresponding to a decimal diameter of 0.1935 inches. The 135-degree split point reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust requirements compared to a standard 118-degree point. The parabolic spiral flute geometry with web thinning promotes efficient chip evacuation. Overall length is 3.625 inches with a 2.4375-inch flute length, and the straight-cylindrical shank measures 0.1935 inches in diameter. Licensed machinists, maintenance mechanics, and metal fabricators install this bit in standard drill presses and hand drills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium in both production and maintenance environments. The QC21P series is classified as a heavy-duty, general-purpose tool conforming to ANSI standards. It is a single-piece, individually packaged bit appropriate for shop use wherever a wire-gauge number 10 hole is required. The 13xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports deeper drilling passes before chip clearance becomes an issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire size number 10 — 0.1935-inch decimal diameter for precise wire-gauge hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes bit walking on curved or hard surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides heat resistance during sustained metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic spiral flute with web thinning improves chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI-conforming QC21P series built to heavy-duty grade tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style jobber-length drill bit for use in standard drill presses, handheld electric drills, and drill drivers fitted with a chuck that accepts a 0.1935-inch straight-cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists and metal fabricators working under general machine-shop or MRO practices. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before drilling and verify chuck key removal before powering the machine. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to extend tool life, even though this bit does not support through-coolant delivery. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point geometry is compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Number 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1935 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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: Standard (Web-Thinned)\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: Parabolic Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4375 inches (2-7\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4375 inches (2-7\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.625 inches (3-5\/8 inches)\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: 0.1935 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1875 inches (1-3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13xD\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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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: QC21P\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, Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys, Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04167 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: 5996955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691704484146,"sku":"5996955","price":15.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/14c3de90969c6378087aaa7d157a7434_d77a7570-78eb-41cc-810d-bc7fc3708498.jpg?v=1788288720","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5996955-wire-10-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
