It features a standard 118-degree split-point angle, a regular spiral flute pattern, and a web-thinned, tapered web construction that reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. Overall length is 3.375 inches with a flute length of 2.1875 inches. The straight-cylindrical shank diameter matches the drill diameter at 0.1730 inches, making it compatible with standard keyed and keyless drill chucks. This bit is part of the Series R10H-R18H and is intended for general-purpose drilling by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose drilling operations in steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. It is a right-hand cut, two-flute spiral bit designed for use in hand drills, drill presses, and CNC or manual machine tool setups. The 2.1875-inch maximum drilling depth covers the majority of standard jobber-length applications in production, maintenance, and field service environments. No coolant-through capability is present, so external coolant or cutting fluid is recommended when drilling harder materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size 17 — 0.1730-inch decimal diameter for precise hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry on a wide range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with bright uncoated finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web reduces drilling thrust and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, two-flute regular spiral design for efficient material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant construction to Series R10H-R18H specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks accepting a 0.1730-inch straight-cylindrical shank.
