Built from high speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. The bit measures 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inches) in diameter with a 4-3\/4-inch spiral flute length and a 7-1\/2-inch overall length. The right-hand spiral flute geometry makes it a direct fit for standard drill presses, lathes, and hand-held drilling equipment used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working with ferrous and non-ferrous stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5999702 is suited for production and maintenance drilling in shop and field environments. Its taper length body provides extra reach compared to jobber-length bits, making it useful when drilling through thicker workpieces or in applications where clearance depth is required. The Series R51 designation identifies it as a general-purpose line conforming to ANSI standards, appropriate for residential and commercial mechanical, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing rough-in work where metal drilling is part of the install process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction handles alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, and reinforced plastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned geometry reduces entry thrust and centers the bit reliably\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper length body at 7-1\/2 inches overall provides extended reach beyond standard jobber-length bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish allows visual wear inspection during service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute with 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio promotes consistent chip clearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight shank compatible with standard drill chucks — no special tooling required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose taper length drill bit conforming to ANSI standards; compatible with any standard drill chuck that accepts a 0.4687-inch straight shank across drill presses, lathes, and portable drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this bit should be performed by machinists or trade professionals familiar with drilling speeds and feeds for the target material.
