Sized at 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch decimal), it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a steam oxide coating that reduces friction and provides light corrosion resistance during storage and use. The 2-flute, spiral-flute geometry with a regular spiral type delivers efficient chip evacuation. The bit is web-thinned with a tapered web configuration to reduce thrust requirements at the point. Overall length is 4.125 inches with a 2.875-inch flute length. Licensed tradespeople and machinists in metal fabrication, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades rely on this bit for production and service drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. The straight-cylindrical shank with a diameter of 0.2656 inch fits standard three-jaw drill chucks. It is appropriate for handheld drill applications as well as drill press and machine tool setups where jobber-length reach is sufficient. Maximum drilling depth is 2.875 inches, making it a practical choice for through-hole and blind-hole work in typical trade and light industrial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) diameter with matching straight-cylindrical shank for positive chuck engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for reliable starting on flat and curved surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides corrosion resistance during storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web lowers drilling thrust and reduces heat buildup at the tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute regular spiral geometry promotes consistent chip clearing in deep holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards and NAS 907 specification for dimensional and performance consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any standard three-jaw drill chuck accepting a 0.2656-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before operation. When drilling steel or stainless steel, apply cutting fluid to extend tool life and reduce heat. Replace the bit if the cutting edges show chipping or the steam oxide coating is worn through to bare steel at the tip, indicating significant tool wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2656 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: 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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10A-R15A-R18A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907, ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys and Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 5997533\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721026797874,"sku":"5997533","price":85.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4bd2688cd1a12148f47280ccafeb14f2_f543be86-0b03-4f1c-81d7-e06f3a99b031.jpg?v=1788572473","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997533-jobber-drill-bit-17-64in-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
