Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, it features a 135-degree split point and parabolic flute geometry that reduces cutting resistance and improves chip evacuation. The bit measures 5\/32 inch (0.1562 inch decimal) in diameter, with a 3-inch flute length and a 5-3\/8 inch overall length, giving it a 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio suited for deeper-than-standard hole applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators install this bit in standard drill presses, hand drills, and CNC equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper length drill bit is engineered for general-purpose use across a broad range of materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, hardened steel, tempered steel, cast iron, malleable iron, aluminum, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze, copper, graphite, magnesium, magnesium alloy, nickel, titanium, and titanium alloy. The self-centering 135-degree split point starts on contact without a center punch in most applications. The tapered web and web-thinned geometry are particularly useful in production environments where minimizing thrust force and heat buildup is a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point for self-centering entry and reduced thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParabolic flute profile promotes faster chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction rated for heavy-duty grade performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper length body (5-3\/8 inches OAL) provides extended reach beyond jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces cutting resistance in tough materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-standard straight cylindrical shank fits standard chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with a wide range of materials including ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and alloys as specified by the manufacturer.

Ensure the chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling ferrous metals or hardened materials to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point is damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: QC91P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (0.1562 inch)\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\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length x Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6xD\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 Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1563 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool 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\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\u003eThreaded Shank\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\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 pounds\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: 5997421\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51710563287346,"sku":"5997421","price":30.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/493f31ed2c78d8c96911c7c32cd9970a_24f21ef8-b297-4fb9-abcf-3bf9314ab0bf.jpg?v=1788468235","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997421-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
