Ground to a 118-degree standard point angle with a web-thinned, tapered web configuration, it reduces thrust and improves chip clearance on entry. The bright\/uncoated finish suits general purpose shop use. At 0.4375 inches (7\/16 inch) diameter with a 4.625-inch flute length and 7.25-inch overall length, this bit fits standard drill press and handheld power tool chucks. The fast spiral flute and 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio promote efficient chip evacuation. Right-hand cut only. Meets ANSI standards. Installed by machinists, maintenance techs, and skilled tradespeople across fabrication and mechanical service applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling aluminum, aluminum alloy, copper, magnesium, and magnesium alloy workpieces. The taper length profile provides additional reach compared to a jobber-length bit, making it appropriate for deeper hole applications or where standard-length bits fall short. The cylindrical, non-threaded shank seats directly in standard drill chucks without an adapter. It is a general purpose grade bit appropriate for production and repair environments working primarily with non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned tapered web for reduced entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast spiral flute with 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — no coating to add or maintain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper length body at 7.25 inches overall provides extended reach versus jobber length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks directly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards; Series R51FS general purpose grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general purpose taper length drill bit compatible with standard drill press, magnetic drill, and handheld power tool chucks accepting a 0.4375-inch cylindrical shank.

Secure the workpiece with appropriate clamping before drilling to prevent movement. Use cutting fluid or lubricant appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life, particularly when drilling copper or aluminum. Inspect the cutting edges and point geometry before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inch (0.4375 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: 7.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cylindrical, non-threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Fast)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Aluminum Alloy, Copper, Magnesium, Magnesium Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R51FS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.083 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: 5998920\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723661148466,"sku":"5998920","price":42.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e877db94ccb6cf1beb215346046e6caa.jpg?v=1788607278","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5998920-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
