Precision Twist Drill 6000825 Taper Length Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000825 is a taper length high speed steel drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling across a wide range of metals and engineered materials. It has a 0.0945 inch diameter, a 118-degree standard point angle, and a bright uncoated finish. The spiral flute geometry and web-thinned, tapered web configuration promote efficient chip evacuation and reduce entry force. With an overall length of 3-47/64 inches and a flute length of 2-7/16 inches, this bit offers extended reach compared to a jobber-length drill while maintaining rigidity. It is suited for machine shop use, production drilling, and maintenance applications where a straight-shank, right-hand-cut bit is required.

This bit is built for drilling alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, malleable iron, aluminum, aluminum alloy, brass, bronze, high strength bronze, copper, nickel, nickel alloy, magnesium, magnesium alloy, cermet, graphite, and reinforced plastic materials. It fits standard drill chucks accepting a 0.0945 inch straight shank and is a practical choice for machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking professionals who need reliable hole quality in a broad range of workpiece materials. The Series 5ATL designation identifies it within PRECISION TWIST DRILL taper length product line conforming to DIN 340.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists and metalworking technicians using a drill press, CNC machining center, or handheld power drill with an appropriate chuck capacity. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured before drilling to prevent movement and maintain hole accuracy. Power down and de-energize any machine tool before installing or removing the bit. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the workpiece material to extend tool life, noting that this bit does not support coolant-through delivery.
