The bit measures 31\/64 inches (0.4844 inches) in diameter with a 5-7\/8 inch overall length and a 4-3\/8 inch flute length. It is ground from high speed steel with a steam oxide coating and features a 135-degree split point for fast penetration and reduced walking on hard materials. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks on hand drills, drill presses, and magnetic base drills. The web-thinned, tapered web geometry reduces thrust requirements, making this bit practical for hand-held drilling in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for right-hand drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. It falls in the R10B series and meets ANSI and NAS 907 specifications, making it appropriate for general-purpose and heavy-duty applications across residential and commercial mechanical trade work. Typical use cases include drilling mounting holes in ductwork, panel enclosures, pipe hangers, strut channel, and structural steel. It is a single-piece per package unit sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree standard point angle with web thinning for reduced entry force and minimal bit walk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating improves lubricity and provides light corrosion resistance during storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction rated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks — no adapter required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-flute spiral design with regular spiral type for efficient chip evacuation on through-holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and NAS 907 specifications for dimensional accuracy and material grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard three-jaw drill chucks on corded and cordless drills, drill presses, and magnetic base drills that accept a straight cylindrical shank at 31\/64 inches (0.4844 inches) diameter.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify chuck key is removed before operation. Always de-energize electrical panels and shut off equipment before drilling into live enclosures or structural members near utilities. Use cutting fluid or cutting oil when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to extend bit life and maintain dimensional accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\/64 inches (0.4844 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-7\/8 inches (5.875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-3\/8 inches (4.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\/64 inches (0.4844 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (1.500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-3\/8 inches (4.375 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\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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: R10B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Margin\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 5998016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51713277165874,"sku":"5998016","price":30.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e54529b321c8d88e787e6c4f803d17c6_1e70b208-3ccc-4217-9e5a-20009077b2b8.jpg?v=1788492482","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998016-jobber-drill-bit-31-64-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
