Precision Twist Drill 5998382 3/32 Inch Hss Jobber Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 5998382 is a jobber-length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metalworking and fabrication applications. Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it carries a 3/32 inch (0.0938 inch decimal) diameter and a standard 118-degree split point angle. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without modification. With a regular spiral flute configuration and web-thinned, tapered web construction, this bit cuts efficiently through a range of materials. It is suited for licensed tradespeople, machinists, and maintenance professionals who need a reliable, ANSI-compliant drill bit for daily production or service work.

This bit is rated for drilling steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium, making it a versatile choice across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trade work. The 2.25-inch overall length and 1.25-inch flute length make it appropriate for standard jobber-depth holes in sheet metal, structural members, and fabricated components. The Series R10H-R18H designation places it within a consistent product family for repeat sourcing. Right-hand cut geometry is standard for use in conventional drill press and handheld drill driver applications.

Installation Notes

Install in a properly rated drill chuck and verify the shank is fully seated before operation. Always wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. Power down the drill completely before changing bits or clearing chips. Follow applicable shop safety standards and any site-specific PPE requirements when drilling superalloys or titanium.
