Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a two-flute right-hand spiral configuration. The bit measures 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) in diameter with an overall length of 4.125 inches and a flute length of 2.875 inches. The tapered web and web-thinned geometry reduce thrust and improve chip evacuation. This bit is installed and used by machinists, maintenance technicians, HVAC installers, plumbers, and electricians for general metal drilling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. The straight-cylindrical shank accommodates standard three-jaw drill chucks on handheld drills, drill presses, and CNC machines. The Series R10P design follows ANSI standards, making it a reliable general-purpose option across fabrication, maintenance, and installation trades. The 11xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides good chip clearance during deeper passes up to the maximum drilling depth of 2.875 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) diameter with a straight-cylindrical shank of equal diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry on metal workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with bright uncoated finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, two-flute spiral configuration with tapered web and web thinning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum drilling depth of 2.875 inches; shank length of 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant Series R10P geometry; no coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any standard three-jaw chuck accepting a 17\/64 inch straight-cylindrical shank, including handheld drills, drill presses, and compatible CNC tooling.

Use appropriate work-holding to secure the workpiece and prevent rotation during drilling. Apply cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to extend tool life and manage heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use; a dull or damaged bit can cause work-hardening in stainless and hard materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2656 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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: R10P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04167 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: 5998417\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51724011897138,"sku":"5998417","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4485bda63f245c85fcb833b204fbef85_f352af29-b7a0-4f3c-be20-569322bfdf19.jpg?v=1788611550","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998417-jobber-drill-bit-17-64-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
