Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, the bit runs a standard 118-degree point angle and a two-flute right-hand spiral configuration. Overall length is 1.25 inches with a 3\/8-inch flute length, making it well suited for close-tolerance small-diameter work. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.026 inches in diameter, matching the drill diameter for direct chuck mounting without adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is intended for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and other hard materials. It fits standard drill chucks on benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and CNC machining centers where small wire gauge sizes are required. Machinists, tool and die workers, maintenance technicians, and fabricators reach for this size when drilling pilot holes, tapping preparation holes, or performing intricate small-bore work. The R18P series designation places it within the PRECISION TWIST DRILL R10P-R15P-R18P family of jobber drill bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 71 with 0.026-inch decimal diameter for close-tolerance small-bore drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for improved chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and superalloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-flute regular spiral design promotes consistent chip evacuation in short-depth holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose use without coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-compliant straight cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style general-purpose jobber drill bit within the PRECISION TWIST DRILL R10P-R15P-R18P series, compatible with standard drill chucks accepting straight cylindrical shanks at 0.026 inches diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachinists and fabricators should secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Power down the drill press or disconnect the hand tool before bit changes. At this small diameter, use low feed pressure and moderate spindle speed to prevent bit breakage, and clear chips frequently. No coolant-through capability is present on this bit, so a light cutting oil applied manually is recommended when drilling hard or stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire Gauge)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 71\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.026 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\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: 3\/8 inches (0.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (1.25 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.026 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inches (0.875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10P-R15P-R18P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 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: 5999385\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51702139978034,"sku":"5999385","price":54.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1a9595767adf1a1bebcf3507a2874d00_0772bc3d-589f-48ce-8cfb-5c435eec5654.jpg?v=1788409614","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999385-jobber-drill-bit-71","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
