It features a 135-degree split point with web thinning, which reduces walking on entry and lowers thrust requirements compared to a standard 118-degree point. The bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose drilling in steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials. With an overall length of 2.75 inches and a 1.625-inch flute length, this bit fits standard drill chucks on benchtop drill presses and handheld power tools. It is part of the QC21P series and conforms to ANSI standards. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals including steel and aluminum. The 14xD flute-to-diameter ratio and regular spiral flute geometry provide good chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole applications at wire-gauge diameters. Typical applications include pilot holes, clearance holes, and light sheet metal work where a small-diameter, general-purpose bit is required. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard Jacobs-style chucks without any adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 32 (0.1160 inches) with matching straight shank diameter of 0.1160 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning reduces walking and improves centering on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for general-purpose drilling in steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids or dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral, 2-flute design promotes efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant QC21P series geometry for consistent dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill bit compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a 0.1160-inch straight cylindrical shank.

Ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation at small-diameter drill sizes. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use, as small-diameter bits are susceptible to breakage if run at incorrect speeds or feeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1160 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1160 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\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\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: 5997016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701703967026,"sku":"5997016","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/14c3de90969c6378087aaa7d157a7434_06fdd3bb-cc33-4695-a7f8-24be029e1ece.jpg?v=1788404057","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997016-wire-32-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
