Built from high speed steel (HSS) 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 at entry. The bit measures 37\/64 inch (0.5781 inches) in diameter with a spiral flute length of 4.875 inches and an overall length of 8.75 inches. The right-hand cut and regular spiral flute geometry make it a reliable everyday tool for production and maintenance drilling operations performed by machinists, HVAC fabricators, plumbers, and general metalworkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling into a broad spectrum of materials in both shop and field environments. Its taper length body — longer than a jobber bit but shorter than a long series — gives added reach for applications where standard jobber length falls short, such as drilling through structural members, thick flanges, or deep fixture setups. It performs well in residential and light commercial metalworking, HVAC sheet metal fabrication, plumbing rough-in, and general maintenance environments where drilling into steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and cast iron is routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37\/64 inch (0.5781 inches) diameter — straight shank matches standard drill chuck capacities\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral flute, right-hand cut with 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish — no coating buildup, easy to inspect for wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper length series R51 — extended reach versus jobber bits without sacrificing rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks accepting straight shanks up to 0.5781 inches in diameter.

Power down and de-energize all equipment before changing bits. Use appropriate cutting fluid for ferrous materials to extend bit life and maintain dimensional accuracy. Operate at the recommended surface footage for the work material — consult standard HSS speed-and-feed tables for the specific alloy being drilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37\/64 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5781 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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5781 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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 x 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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreaded Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R51\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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\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: 6000258\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690430595378,"sku":"6000258","price":63.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8e14d6883f7f53543e2085707c5db033.jpg?v=1788270067","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-6000258-taper-length-drill-bit-37-64","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
