The 135-degree split point reduces walking at contact and lowers the thrust needed to start a hole, making it well suited to production and maintenance drilling environments. A straw oxide finish provides mild lubricity and heat resistance during cutting. The straight cylindrical shank and regular spiral fluting are machined to ANSI standards, and the web is thinned and tapered to improve chip evacuation in deep-hole applications. Licensed HVAC technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and general metalworking shops all rely on this bit class for everyday drilling tasks in ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jobber drill is intended for right-hand drilling in steel, cast iron, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials covered by material codes P, M, K, N, and S. The 5-inch overall length and 3.625-inch flute length allow it to reach through typical structural members, pipe flanges, electrical enclosures, and HVAC sheet metal. It is part of the Series R10CO-R15CO-R18CO cobalt line and meets NAS 907 specification, making it appropriate wherever NAS-designated tooling is called out on a job sheet. Each package contains one bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLetter U size — 0.3680-inch decimal equivalent for close-tolerance hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes walking on hard surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction handles elevated cutting temperatures in steel and tough alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraw oxide finish provides lubricity and surface hardness without post-treatment costs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web improves chip flow and reduces torque in deep cuts up to 3.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards and NAS 907 specification for controlled tooling environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber drill for right-hand drilling operations in steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials (material codes P, M, K, N, S).

Secure the workpiece fully before drilling and verify spindle speed against the recommended surface footage for cobalt tooling in the target material. Apply cutting fluid or oil when drilling steel to extend tool life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use — a damaged tip increases the risk of bit breakage and out-of-tolerance holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: U\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3680 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Split Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straw Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.625 inches (3-5\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3680 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.375 inches (1-3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.625 inches\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: Regular Spiral\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (codes P, M, K, N, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10CO-R15CO-R18CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.083 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: 5999072\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689343156530,"sku":"5999072","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/43023b3e6b6bab88a536782a7f7f19eb.jpg?v=1788257902","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999072-cobalt-jobber-drill-bit-u","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
