Sized at 0.1820 inches in diameter (Wire Size #14), it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a spiral flute with a 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio, giving it extended reach beyond a jobber-length bit while maintaining accurate starts and clean chip evacuation. The bright, uncoated finish suits dry or lubricated cutting. Right-hand cut with a straight shank, this bit is a go-to for maintenance technicians, electricians, machinists, and plumbers who need reliable performance in tight or deep-hole applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling in residential, commercial, and light industrial environments. The taper length configuration provides additional flute length compared to jobber bits, making it appropriate for deeper holes or setups where a standard-length bit falls short. It performs across a broad material range including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, cast iron, malleable iron, nickel alloys, magnesium alloys, hardened steel, high strength bronze, cermet, graphite, and reinforced plastic materials. Series R52 designates its place within the Precision Twist Drill general-purpose catalog line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.1820 inch diameter, Wire Size #14, for precise sizing in standard drill charts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry into a wide range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral flute with 6xD flute length ratio enables deeper hole drilling versus jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust and easier penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish compatible with cutting fluids or dry drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, straight shank — fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose OEM-style taper length drill bit compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks and drill press spindles accepting a 0.1820 inch straight shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall in a properly sized drill chuck and tighten securely before operation. Ensure the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent movement during drilling. Apply appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals or stainless steel to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1820 inches (Wire Size #14)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1820 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight, Non-Threaded\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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R52\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: 0.042 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: 5999697\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700972847410,"sku":"5999697","price":22.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d6c630e98df6a1266648516bee04cd85.jpg?v=1788396070","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999697-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
