It features a 25\/32-inch (0.7812 inch decimal) cutting diameter with a 1\/2-inch Weldon flat shank, allowing it to seat securely in standard 1\/2-inch chuck tooling without slippage. The 118-degree standard point angle suits a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Manufactured from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this bit delivers solid performance in production and job-site environments where a reduced shank profile is required to fit smaller chuck capacities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use on ferrous metals as the primary workpiece material, with secondary capability in aluminum, copper, magnesium, nickel, titanium, synthetic materials, and cermet. The Series R57 designation covers general-purpose reduced shank drilling in both shop and field settings. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople will find this bit useful for through-hole and clearance-hole drilling where a standard-length tool is appropriate. The 3-inch flute length supports a maximum drilling depth of 3 inches, and the 4xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports efficient chip evacuation during moderate-feed drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25\/32-inch cutting diameter (0.7812 inch decimal) with a reduced 1\/2-inch Weldon flat shank for use in standard 1\/2-inch chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with bright uncoated finish for broad material compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch flute length and 6-inch overall length with a maximum drilling depth of 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flute geometry for consistent chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree Weldon flats on shank prevent bit rotation under torque load in set-screw holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose reduced shank drill bit compatible with 1\/2-inch chuck tooling and Weldon-style set-screw holders.

Ensure the Weldon flat is fully engaged with the set screw in the holder before beginning any drilling operation. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for damage before each use, and do not exceed the recommended maximum drilling depth of 3 inches. Eye protection and appropriate workholding are required whenever this tool is in operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\/32 inch (0.7812 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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\u003eTool Material\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cermet, Copper, Magnesium, Nickel, Synthetic, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R57\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 5999655\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692996329778,"sku":"5999655","price":80.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dc6bfd160678c3d7fe96bae51a12a3d4.jpg?v=1788305983","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999655-reduced-shank-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
