Built to the QC91P series specification, it carries a wire gauge size of 15, which corresponds to 0.1800 inches in decimal. The 135-degree split point with web thinning allows self-centering entry without a center punch, reducing setup time and walking on hard surfaces. The parabolic flute geometry, ground to a 6xD flute-length-to-diameter ratio, promotes efficient chip evacuation during deep-hole drilling. The bright, uncoated finish makes wear and edge condition easy to inspect in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for professional machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working in job shops, MRO environments, and light manufacturing settings. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without an adapter. At 3.375 inches of flute length and 5.75 inches overall length, it provides reach beyond what a jobber-length bit offers while remaining practical for bench drill presses and hand-held drilling operations. The right-hand cut and tapered web configuration are consistent with standard shop practice for through-hole and blind-hole applications in production and repair contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size 15 — 0.1800 inch decimal diameter for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning for self-centering, reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eParabolic flute geometry at 6xD ratio for aggressive chip evacuation in deep holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction rated for heavy-duty service across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — no coating to obscure wear; easy edge inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard chucks with no adapter required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for taper length drill bit geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style taper length drill bit for use in standard drill presses, CNC drilling centers, and hand-held drills fitted with a straight-shank chuck.

Power down and de-energize the drilling machine before inserting or removing the bit. Secure the shank fully in the chuck jaws and confirm concentricity before beginning a cut. Do not exceed the speed and feed recommendations appropriate for the work material and bit diameter to avoid premature edge wear or breakage.\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 Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1800 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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.75 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: 0.1800 inches\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\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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Self-Centering\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: 5997976\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692114772274,"sku":"5997976","price":32.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/493f31ed2c78d8c96911c7c32cd9970a_877d5453-ffdf-476e-adff-2bbebad5bc70.jpg?v=1788293311","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5997976-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
