Precision Twist Drill 6000250 Taper Length Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000250 is a taper length drill bit designed for general-purpose hole-making across a wide range of materials. Manufactured from high speed steel with a bright/uncoated finish, it measures 0.0320 inches in diameter (wire size 67) with a 2-inch overall length and a 3/4-inch flute length. The 118-degree standard point angle suits the majority of common drilling applications. The straight shank allows direct chucking in standard drill presses, CNC machines, and hand drills. This bit is intended for installation and maintenance professionals, machinists, and fabricators who require consistent, reliable performance from a general-purpose HSS drill.

This drill bit is well suited for use in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and field service environments. Its small diameter and taper length profile make it appropriate for precision work in tight-clearance areas or where a longer flute-to-diameter ratio is needed. Compatible 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.

Key Features

• High speed steel construction provides durability across a broad range of workpiece materials
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling
• Bright/uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect hole tolerance at small diameters
• Right-hand spiral flute promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust and improves cutting efficiency
• Straight shank fits standard chucks without adapters
• Series R52 construction meets ANSI standards

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose taper length drill bit compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks on drill presses, CNC machining centers, and portable drills. Suitable for use in alloy steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, carbon steel, cast iron, copper, stainless steel, and other materials as listed in the material application data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with rotating cutting tools. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck before operation and verify runout is within acceptable limits for the application. Appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant is recommended when drilling harder metals such as stainless steel or hardened steel to extend tool life. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow applicable shop safety procedures when operating drilling equipment.
