It carries a 118-degree standard point angle and a regular spiral flute with web-thinning for improved chip evacuation and reduced thrust on entry. At 3 inches overall length with a 1.875-inch flute length, this bit suits general-purpose production and maintenance drilling tasks. A licensed machinist, tool-and-die tech, or mechanical contractor installs it in any standard drill press, CNC drilling center, or portable drill motor accepting straight-cylindrical shanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. It fits general-purpose production environments where consistent, repeatable hole quality in a range of metallic workpieces is required. The steam oxide coating provides moderate lubricity and surface protection during dry or lightly lubricated drilling operations. Series R18 designation places this bit within the PRECISION TWIST DRILL R10-R15-R18 family of jobber-length HSS drills built to ANSI standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire size 26 (0.1470 inches) straight-cylindrical shank for universal chuck compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point with web-thinning for reduced entry thrust and cleaner hole starts\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\u003eSteam oxide finish provides baseline lubricity and corrosion protection during dry drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute, 2-flute configuration, no coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt to ANSI specification under Series R18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose OEM-style jobber-length drill bit compatible with any drill press, hand drill, or CNC spindle accepting a 0.1470-inch straight-cylindrical shank; part of the PRECISION TWIST DRILL R10-R15-R18 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecure the shank fully in a keyed or keyless chuck before operation and verify the drill is powered down before bit changes. A machinist or mechanical technician should confirm the workpiece is clamped and that drilling speed is set appropriately for the workpiece material and bit diameter. Do not exceed the maximum drilling depth of 1.875 inches without retracting to clear chips. Cutting fluid is not required but may extend tool life when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1470 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches (1-7\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1470 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches (1-1\/8 inches)\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\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10-R15-R18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\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: 0.042 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: 5998345\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51702638805298,"sku":"5998345","price":42.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f2bbd17554f8298fe95bb319a732ccea_dc0d4cb9-7070-4bc2-891d-0d7011e68055.jpg?v=1788412473","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998345-jobber-drill-bit-wire-26","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
