The bit measures 0.024 inches in diameter, corresponding to wire gauge size 73, with a 118-degree standard drill point angle and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces entry resistance. The spiral flute geometry and oxide finish are standard for high speed steel tooling used in production and maintenance drilling applications. Right-hand cut with a straight-cylindrical shank, this bit fits standard drill chucks without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for light-duty drilling tasks in metalworking, HVAC fabrication, plumbing rough-in, and electrical trade applications where small-diameter pilot holes or clearance holes are required in steel or cast iron workpieces. The Series R18 designation places it within the Precision Twist Drill general-purpose jobber-length line, which conforms to ANSI standards. With an overall length of 1.125 inches and a flute length of 0.3125 inches, it is appropriate for use in benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and drill stations handling fine-gauge work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.024 inch diameter, wire size 73, for small-diameter drilling in steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard drill point for general-purpose entry into ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide finish for wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web reduces thrust and improves chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute, straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI standards, Series R18 general-purpose grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an ANSI-compliant general-purpose jobber-length drill bit suitable for use in standard drill chucks and drill presses handling wire-gauge diameter tooling in ferrous material applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall in a properly rated drill chuck and verify the chuck is fully tightened before operation.
