Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a steam oxide coating, it resists heat buildup and corrosion during extended drilling cycles. The 135-degree split-point tip reduces walking on entry and cuts through material with less feed pressure than a standard 118-degree point. The web-thinned, tapered web design improves chip evacuation. Licensed machinists, pipefitters, HVAC fabricators, plumbers, and electricians routinely use jobber-length bits like this one for hole placement in panel work, ductwork layout, and structural drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. It follows ANSI standards and carries a NAS 907 specification designation, making it appropriate for both shop fabrication and field service work. The R10B series covers the 0.4000 to 0.5000 inch diameter range and is a recognized general-purpose jobber series. Maximum drilling depth is 4-1\/16 inches, making this bit appropriate for through-hole work in standard structural and sheet stock thicknesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree standard point angle with web thinning reduces entry walking and lowers required feed force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating improves lubricity and heat resistance during continuous drilling\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\u003eRegular spiral flute with 2 flutes and a 9xD flute-to-diameter ratio for efficient chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank at 7\/16 inch diameter fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNAS 907 specification and ANSI standards compliance for traceability in specification-driven work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks accepting a 7\/16 inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Ensure the chuck is fully tightened and the workpiece is clamped before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to manage heat and extend tool life. Power down all equipment and secure the workpiece before changing or inspecting the bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/16 inches (4.0625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/16 inches (4.0625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-7\/16 inches (1.4375 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\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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\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\u003eDouble Margin\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10B-R15B-R18B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 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: 5998031\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689168601394,"sku":"5998031","price":24.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e54529b321c8d88e787e6c4f803d17c6.jpg?v=1788255536","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998031-7-16-in-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
