It measures 17\/64 inch (0.2656 inch) in diameter with a 4.125-inch overall length and a standard 118-degree point angle. The steam oxide coating provides a modest reduction in friction and helps resist corrosion during storage and use. The tapered web with web-thinned geometry reduces thrust at the point, making it suitable for production and maintenance drilling work performed by machinists, pipefitters, and general trade mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. The Series R10 designation identifies it as a general-purpose jobber-length design conforming to ANSI standards. Typical applications include structural fabrication shops, mechanical rooms, and field service work where a reliable, straight-shank bit is required for standard-depth through-holes in metallic workpieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17\/64 inch diameter with 0.2656 inch straight-cylindrical shank — no adapter required for standard chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for broad material compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute right-hand spiral flute with 2.875-inch flute length and 11xD flute-to-diameter ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web design lowers drilling thrust at the cutting point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant Series R10 construction for consistent dimensional tolerancing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit compatible with any standard 3-jaw drill chuck accepting a 17\/64 inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Secure the workpiece with appropriate clamping or fixturing — never hand-hold metal stock during drilling. Apply cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to manage heat buildup and extend bit life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear before each use; a dull bit increases thrust force and can cause workpiece damage or breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2656 inch (17\/64 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\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 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\u003eMaterial\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\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\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11xD\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 5998699\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701183283506,"sku":"5998699","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8285143b76113f15c5f987c3a55f96e2_5028422f-81f0-4156-9d06-b13595833446.jpg?v=1788399408","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998699-jobber-drill-bit-17-64","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
