Ground from high-speed steel and finished with a steam oxide coating, it features a standard 118-degree split point and a right-hand spiral flute designed for consistent chip evacuation. Overall length is 2.125 inches with a flute length of 1.125 inches. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly into standard drill chucks without adapters. This is a general-purpose production drill intended for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking trades on bench drills, CNC drill presses, and hand-held power tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5998432 is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium when used within appropriate feed and speed parameters. Its regular spiral and tapered web configuration make it effective for through-hole and blind-hole applications in light to medium production environments. The Series R18 designation places it within Precision Twist Drill general-purpose jobber-length family. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 12 units per order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 46 with 0.0810-inch decimal diameter for precise small-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides adequate heat resistance for general metalworking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides mild corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle suits a broad range of metal workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web reduces thrust load and improves hole entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, 2-flute regular spiral promotes efficient chip clearing in through-hole drilling\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 standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting straight-cylindrical shanks at 0.0810 inches diameter.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck and confirm runout is within acceptable limits before starting the cut. Eye protection and appropriate guards must be in place per shop safety requirements. Do not exceed the maximum drilling depth of 1.125 inches without retracting to clear chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0810 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0810 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10-R15-R18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys and Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute-by-Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Margin\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\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: 5998432\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699125649714,"sku":"5998432","price":37.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f2bbd17554f8298fe95bb319a732ccea_59bb0d8c-bc97-4e1f-81db-b8f63c19e4ac.jpg?v=1788372501","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998432-drill-bit-wire-46-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
