The bit features a 118-degree standard point angle, a right-hand cutting direction, and a regular spiral flute with a tapered, web-thinned web configuration that improves chip evacuation and reduces thrust when entering the workpiece. Overall length is 2.125 inches with a 1.125-inch flute length and a straight cylindrical shank. This bit conforms to ANSI standards and meets NAS 907 specification, making it a reliable choice for shops requiring documented tool traceability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron, as well as non-ferrous and other common workpiece materials coded P, M, K, N, and S in the ISO material classification system. The No. 44 wire gauge diameter of 0.0860 inches makes it appropriate for small-diameter through-hole and blind-hole drilling in sheet metal, structural steel, and light cast iron components. It is commonly used by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics in job-shop and production environments. The flute-to-diameter ratio of 13xD supports drilling to a maximum depth of 1.125 inches without extended-length tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 44 wire size, 0.0860-inch decimal diameter for precise small-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for general-purpose cutting across steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteam oxide coating reduces friction and provides light corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute promotes efficient chip evacuation in common workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards and NAS 907 specification for traceable tooling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of the PRECISION TWIST DRILL Series R10A-R15A-R18A jobber drill line.

Ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is tightened securely before operation to prevent runout or bit slippage. For drilling in steel or cast iron, use an appropriate cutting fluid or coolant to manage heat buildup, as this bit is not rated for coolant-through delivery. Inspect the point and cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if edge integrity is compromised.\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: No. 44\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (HSS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\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: 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0860 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R10A-R15A-R18A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, NAS 907\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 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: 5999428\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51702646669618,"sku":"5999428","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cb0d3aa62b12a911c87b71fb6c8893a6_338dd6c2-77bf-4048-9ed0-3a99a5d544c3.jpg?v=1788412512","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999428-no-44-hss-jobber-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
