It measures 17\/32 inches (0.5312 inches decimal) in cutting diameter with a 1\/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank, allowing it to fit standard 1\/2 inch chucks without modification. The 118-degree split point provides fast, self-centering starts on ferrous metals and reduces walking on hard surfaces. At 6 inches overall length with a 3 inch flute length, this bit suits a range of bench drill press and hand drill setups. Cobalt construction with a bright uncoated finish delivers heat resistance and edge retention when drilling through tough materials. It is part of the Series R56CO line and cuts in a right-hand direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for trade and industrial use where consistent hole quality in metal is required. Primary workpiece material is ferrous metal. Secondary compatible materials include aluminum, copper, magnesium, nickel, titanium, cermet, and synthetic materials. Typical applications include mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical rough-in work where accurate holes are needed in steel plate, angle iron, unistrut, and similar structural metals. The reduced shank design makes it practical for tradespeople who carry a standard 1\/2 inch drill rather than a full-set indexing chuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt tool material for high heat resistance and extended edge life in ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree split point for fast starts and reduced drill walking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduced shank design — 17\/32 inch cutting diameter fits a standard 1\/2 inch chuck\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 inch flute length supports drilling depths up to 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — no coating buildup that can affect tolerance in tight clearance holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut with regular spiral flutes for consistent chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in any 1\/2 inch keyed or keyless drill chuck.

Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and verify chuck key is removed before starting the drill. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling hard ferrous stock to extend bit life, even though the bit itself does not require coolant. Follow all applicable OSHA and shop safety requirements for rotating tool use, including eye protection and secure workpiece fixturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inch (0.5312 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: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reduced Shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R56CO\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: 6000364\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695093285170,"sku":"6000364","price":72.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c0469472f923c9c41b6a31a5f87dd2e3.jpg?v=1788331261","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-6000364-cobalt-drill-bit-17-32-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
