The 135-degree split point reduces walking and cutting force at entry, making it well suited for work on harder steels without a center punch. The bit carries an oxide and straw finish that improves lubricity and surface hardness. Overall length is 3 inches, flute length is 1.875 inches, and the straight cylindrical shank diameter is 0.1495 inches. This is a heavy-duty, general-purpose tool built to ANSI and NAS 907 standards and rated for right-hand cutting with a regular spiral flute pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is intended for drilling in steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials where cobalt-grade tooling is preferred over standard HSS. It fits any standard drill chuck accepting a 0.1495-inch straight shank. Typical applications include fabrication shops, machine shops, HVAC and plumbing rough-in work requiring precise small-diameter holes, and general maintenance drilling. The Series R10CO-R15CO-R18CO designation covers the full range of cobalt jobber bits in this family. Single-piece packaging makes it easy to replace individual worn or broken bits without purchasing a set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction for increased heat and wear resistance compared to standard HSS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust force and minimizes bit walking on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide and straw coating improves lubricity and extends service life in steel drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web design lowers cutting resistance and improves chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without an adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and NAS 907 standards for dimensional accuracy and material grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock bit for any application requiring a No. 25 wire-gauge (0.1495-inch decimal) jobber-length drill.

Power down or de-energize the drill press or hand tool before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling steel to extend bit life and maintain dimensional accuracy. Cobalt bits should be run at reduced RPM compared to standard HSS bits when drilling hardened or stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1495 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High-Speed Steel\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: Standard Split Point (Web-Thinned)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide and Straw\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: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\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: 0.1495 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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10CO-R15CO-R18CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 5997723\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699750928690,"sku":"5997723","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fd6336b34c1d0261f5eb3b4d3e77059f_bf16e7ee-9012-469a-be31-0a378bec59bb.jpg?v=1788380298","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997723-cobalt-jobber-drill-no-25","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
