Manufactured from high speed steel with a steam oxide coating, this bit runs a standard 118-degree point angle with a right-hand spiral flute and a web-thinned tip geometry for reduced thrust and cleaner entry. The overall length is 1.375 inches with a 0.500-inch flute length. It is installed and used by machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance trades requiring precision small-diameter hole work in production or repair settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. The steam oxide finish provides light corrosion resistance and reduces chip welding during cutting. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly into standard drill chucks and collets without adapters, making it practical for benchtop drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held drilling operations where a small-diameter wire-gauge bit is required. It is a single-pack item sold as part of the R18 series of jobber-length bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 66 with 0.0330-inch decimal diameter for tight-tolerance small-bore work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and light surface corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned tip reduces entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute with tapered web for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank fits standard chucks and collets without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style general-purpose jobber-length drill bit for use in standard drill chucks and collets accepting a 0.0330-inch straight-cylindrical shank across benchtop, floor-standing, and CNC drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists and maintenance technicians familiar with small-diameter drill bit handling. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before operation and verify runout before cutting. Use appropriate cutting fluid for harder workpieces such as stainless steel or titanium to extend tool life. Small-diameter bits are sensitive to side load — feed pressure should be controlled and consistent to avoid breakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 66\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0330 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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steam Oxide\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0330 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\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\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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 5999161\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718046023986,"sku":"5999161","price":41.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f2bbd17554f8298fe95bb319a732ccea_654f639c-624f-4c88-a428-00b99377c5ed.jpg?v=1788548877","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999161-wire-66-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
