Precision Twist Drill 5998275 3/32 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 5998275 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in a wide range of materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it measures 3/32 inches (0.0938 inches) in diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle. The overall length is 2.25 inches, with a 1.25-inch spiral flute and a straight-cylindrical shank. The tapered web with web-thinning reduces thrust at the point, improving cut initiation. This bit is suited for use by machinists, HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and other trade professionals who need a reliable general-purpose drill for metal and hard materials.

The 5998275 is rated for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. The regular spiral flute with right-hand cut provides consistent chip evacuation during through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations. The 13xD flute-to-diameter ratio gives this jobber-length bit reach appropriate for most standard drilling tasks without requiring an extended-length variant. It conforms to ANSI standards and carries no coolant-through feature, making it compatible with standard drill presses, hand drills, and driver equipment used in everyday trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this drill bit should follow standard machining and drilling safety practices. Secure the workpiece firmly before drilling and ensure the bit is fully seated and tightened in the chuck before operation. Wear appropriate eye protection as required by applicable safety codes. Do not exceed the rated material hardness range; using the bit on hardened materials beyond its rated capacity will accelerate wear and may cause bit breakage.
