Precision Twist Drill 6000670 Hss Jobber Drill Bit 0.5118 in

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000670 is a high speed steel jobber-length drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in a wide range of materials. It features a 0.5118-inch diameter with a standard 118-degree point angle and a bright, uncoated finish. The right-hand spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation, and the web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust during entry. At 5.9449 inches overall length with a 3.9764-inch flute length, this bit suits standard drill press and handheld power tool applications. Licensed HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors reach for this type of bit when drilling sheet metal, aluminum, copper, plastic, and other non-ferrous substrates.

This drill bit is suited for drilling aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials in both residential and commercial trade applications. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without adapters. With a flute-to-diameter ratio of 8xD and a maximum drilling depth matching the flute length at 3.9764 inches, it handles typical through-hole and moderate depth drilling tasks. It conforms to DIN 338 and ANSI standards, making it a reliable choice for jobs where dimensional consistency is required. Sold individually.

Installation Notes

Install and remove drill bits only with the tool unpowered and the chuck key removed from the chuck. Secure the workpiece before drilling to prevent movement. Follow applicable ANSI safety standards and shop safety protocols when operating drill presses or handheld power tools. Coolant-through operation is not supported on this bit; use appropriate cutting fluid externally when drilling harder non-ferrous alloys if needed.
