Built from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it features a 135-degree split-point tip that starts cutting on contact without requiring a center punch. The parabolic flute geometry — running 5-9\/32 inches along the body — promotes aggressive chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup during deep-hole drilling. The straight shank measures 12 millimeters in diameter and accepts standard chucks without adapters. This bit is rated for high-performance tool application and carries a web-thinned, tapered web configuration for reduced thrust and improved penetration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use across a wide range of materials in industrial, maintenance, and shop environments. It is well-suited for machine shops, tool and die operations, and maintenance technicians working on structural steel, castings, and non-ferrous metals. The 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio makes it effective for taper-length holes that exceed standard jobber-length depth requirements. It conforms to DIN 340 specification, making it appropriate for metric-dimensioned workpiece applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split-point tip for self-centering starts without a center punch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic flute design improves chip evacuation and reduces heat in deep-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIN 340 compliant taper length format with 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web reduces drilling thrust and axial load on the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight 12 mm shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with a broad range of materials including alloy steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze, carbon steel, cast iron, copper, graphite, hardened steel, magnesium, magnesium alloy, malleable iron, nickel, stainless steel, steel, tempered steel, titanium, and titanium alloy.

Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the spindle speed is set to an appropriate RPM for the material being drilled before operation. Power down and de-energize all equipment before changing or securing the bit in the chuck. Do not exceed the rated capacity of the drill press or machining center for the material hardness being cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: QC91PM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 mm (0.4724 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-9\/32 inches (134 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-5\/64 inches (205 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 mm (0.4724 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 71 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to 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\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\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 340\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.083 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: 5997433\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51697031479602,"sku":"5997433","price":67.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0523b926873e5beee59d705109f2aa85_da507103-84b0-484a-aee2-9856908f6307.jpg?v=1788348664","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997433-taper-length-drill-bit-12mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
