It features a standard 118-degree point angle, a two-flute regular spiral design, and a web-thinned tapered web for reduced thrust when starting holes. Overall length is 4.875 inches with a flute length of 3.5 inches, giving it the reach needed for general-purpose through-hole and blind-hole work. Licensed HVAC technicians, machinists, plumbers, and electricians reach for this bit when drilling through steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar hard materials in the field or shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in both residential and commercial settings. It fits standard three-jaw drill chucks accepting a 0.3580-inch straight cylindrical shank. Typical applications include drilling pilot and clearance holes in ferrous and non-ferrous structural material, equipment enclosures, conduit hangers, and mechanical supports. The Series R10P-R15P-R18P designation places it in a proven general-purpose jobber family built to ANSI specification.
