Manufactured from high speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, it features a 118-degree standard point angle and a right-hand spiral flute. The bit measures 0.1520 inches in diameter (Wire Size 24) with a 3-inch flute length and an overall length of 5-3\/8 inches. The web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust at the cutting tip and improves chip evacuation, making it suitable for production and maintenance drilling across metal fabrication, mechanical, and general trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and trade environments where a taper-length bit is required for reaching into deeper or offset hole locations. The 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides additional reach compared to jobber-length bits. It is compatible with standard drill chucks accepting a 0.1520-inch straight shank and is appropriate for hand-held power drills, drill presses, and milling machine setups. The Series R52 designation places it within PRECISION TWIST DRILL's general-purpose ANSI-standard line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.1520-inch diameter, Wire Size 24, with a 3-inch flute length and 5-3\/8-inch overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across a broad material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose entry and centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web design reduces cutting thrust and improves chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for conventional drilling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eANSI-standard Series R52 — bright\/uncoated finish, no coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible material applications include alloy steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze, carbon steel, cast iron, cermet, copper, graphite, hardened steel, high strength bronze, magnesium, magnesium alloy, malleable iron, nickel, nickel alloy, reinforced plastic materials, and stainless steel.

Power down and lock out any drill press or machine tool before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling harder materials such as stainless steel or hardened steel to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if the point is damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1520 inches (Wire Size 24)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1520 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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\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 Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6xD\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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 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: 5999737\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698107220274,"sku":"5999737","price":22.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/39a6aa0e08e128e43615ad47d89a1f69.jpg?v=1788357801","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999737-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
