Manufactured from high-speed steel with a steam oxide coating, it features a 135-degree split-point tip and a web-thinned, tapered web construction that reduces walking and improves chip evacuation at the point. The spiral flute geometry and right-hand cut deliver consistent, repeatable hole quality in a wide range of metallic workpiece materials. This bit is sized for straight-cylindrical shank compatibility and is intended for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople who require a reliable general-purpose drill for precision hole-making tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for general-purpose drilling applications in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. The 0.1770-inch diameter and 3.375-inch overall length make it well suited for close-tolerance work in production and maintenance environments. The steam oxide coating provides mild lubricity and corrosion resistance during storage and light-duty cutting operations. It is sold individually and is appropriate for use in standard drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held power drills equipped with compatible chucks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 16 at 0.1770 inches diameter for close-tolerance hole-making\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and minimizes bit walk on hard surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating provides mild lubricity and light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web construction improves chip clearance and cutting efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty grade high-speed steel construction rated for steel, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI standards and NAS 907 specification designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drilling applications across steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium workpieces.

Secure the shank fully and verify chuck tightness before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to manage heat buildup and extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace when point geometry is degraded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1770 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches (2-3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.1875 inches (2-3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches (3-3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1770 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1875 inches (1-3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12xD\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\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel; Stainless Steel; Cast Iron; Non-Ferrous Metal; Superalloys and Titanium; Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10B-R15B-R18B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 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: 5999074\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51705223741746,"sku":"5999074","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7da465a3340ea6a9db91bc6a63822e95_b18dd86c-6560-46b9-98af-4233ab30b8a9.jpg?v=1788427606","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999074-jobber-drill-bit-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
