Built to the R88CO series standard, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 5\/16 inches in diameter and seats securely in standard three-jaw chucks. At 4.5 inches overall length with a 1.625-inch flute, this bit is sized for general-purpose through-hole drilling in production and field environments. Cobalt construction with an oxide\/bronze finish provides heat resistance and extended tool life compared to standard high-speed steel bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. It is a practical choice for HVAC installers, pipefitters, sheet metal workers, and machinists who regularly work with tough or work-hardening materials. The right-hand spiral flute and web-thinned tip make it effective in both handheld drill drivers and drill press setups. The regular spiral type provides balanced chip evacuation across the supported workpiece material range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt high-speed steel construction resists heat buildup when drilling hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces drill walk and lowers thrust force required at entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web design improves cutting efficiency and chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide\/bronze finish adds surface hardness and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute with 2-flute configuration for consistent chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets NAS 907 specification for dimensional and performance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length replacement drill bit compatible with any standard 3-jaw chuck or drill press accepting a 5\/16-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Always wear eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling. Use cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to prevent work hardening and premature bit wear. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or excessive wear is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\/Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Split Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R88CO-R89CO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: 5999749\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698409570610,"sku":"5999749","price":25.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/957b5995d3f227aa75b51eb26885f118.jpg?v=1788362414","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999749-cobalt-drill-bit-5-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
