Built from high speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it features a 135-degree split-point tip for reduced walking and faster penetration on hard materials. The 2-flute spiral design with a tapered web and web-thinned point supports efficient chip evacuation during through-hole drilling. At 2.125 inches overall length with a 1.125-inch flute length, this bit is sized for precision drilling in tight-clearance applications. It meets ANSI standards and carries NAS 907 specification designation, making it suitable for controlled production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is engineered for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. It fits standard jobber-length applications in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and field service work where wire-gauge precision holes are required. The straight-cylindrical shank seats in standard chucks on drill presses, hand drills, and CNC spindles. General-purpose heavy-duty grade classification makes it a practical choice for repeated use across mixed-material drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size 44 diameter — 0.0860 inches — for precision small-diameter drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces bit walking and decreases entry force on hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating provides mild lubricity and corrosion resistance during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned tapered web improves chip clearance and reduces thrust load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards and NAS 907 specification for controlled manufacturing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flute — compatible with standard drill chucks and CNC tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit for use in any standard drill chuck or CNC spindle accepting a 0.0860-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully into the chuck before operation and verify concentricity to avoid premature wear or breakage on small-diameter bits. Apply appropriate cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to manage heat and extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges before each use — small-diameter bits are susceptible to chipping and should not be used if the point shows visible damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 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\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.000 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10B \/ R15B \/ R18B\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 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: 5997686\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692085641522,"sku":"5997686","price":45.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7da465a3340ea6a9db91bc6a63822e95_6f6e4216-54bf-418c-b826-9f44e92dcc0e.jpg?v=1788292877","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997686-drill-bit-wire-44-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
