The bit measures 1-1\/8 inches (1.125 inches decimal) in cutting diameter with a reduced 1\/2-inch straight-cylindrical shank, allowing it to chuck into standard 1\/2-inch capacity drill presses and hand drills without requiring a larger chuck. Overall length is 6 inches with a 3-inch flute length, and the 118-degree standard point angle is suitable for most ferrous and non-ferrous drilling applications. Finish is bright\/uncoated, and the right-hand spiral flute design provides efficient chip evacuation during cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is sized for applications where a full-shank bit would exceed the available chuck capacity. The reduced shank design makes a 1-1\/8-inch diameter cut accessible on standard 1\/2-inch drill presses and portable drill equipment. It is used in sheet metal shops, HVAC fabrication, plumbing rough-in, electrical conduit work, and general industrial maintenance. Compatible workpiece materials include ferrous metals, aluminum, copper, magnesium, nickel, titanium, and various synthetic materials, making it a versatile choice across trade disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/8-inch cutting diameter with a reduced 1\/2-inch shank for use with standard 1\/2-inch chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides hardness and wear resistance for metal drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch overall length with a 3-inch flute length and maximum drilling depth of 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with regular spiral type for consistent chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish; no coolant required per specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI standard compliance; Series R56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2-inch capacity drill chucks on drill presses and portable drills.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify the workpiece is clamped or fixtured to prevent rotation. Use appropriate cutting fluid or follow the no-coolant specification depending on workpiece material. Follow applicable shop safety practices and ANSI standards for rotating tool operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches (1.1250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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, Copper, Magnesium, Nickel, Synthetic, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Required\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R56\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\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 5999860\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694562509106,"sku":"5999860","price":134.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/84169b830c044a99ec7d78a3d1f52080.jpg?v=1788325523","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-5999860-reduced-shank-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
