Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, it delivers reliable performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bit features a 135-degree split point with web thinning, which reduces walking on entry and lowers the thrust force needed to start a hole. At 0.04 inches in diameter and 11\/16 inches of flute length, it is suited for small-diameter, close-tolerance work where a standard jobber-length bit cannot reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is a strong fit for aerospace and aircraft sheet metal work, per its NAS 907 Type B standard compliance. It is also appropriate for precision machining, tool and die work, and any application requiring a wire gauge drill in tight clearance areas. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks and collets, making it compatible with benchtop drill presses, hand drills, and CNC equipment. The two-flute spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation even in deep or blind hole scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge size 60 (0.04 inches) straight cylindrical shank and cutting diameter for precise small-bore work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning reduces entry walking and decreases required thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish improves lubricity and offers light corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with NAS 907 Type B standard for aircraft-grade drilling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute right-hand spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style aircraft extension drill bit for use in applications requiring NAS 907 Type B compliance and wire gauge size 60 tooling in standard straight-cylindrical chuck setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of this drill bit is performed by licensed machinists, aerospace technicians, or qualified trade professionals. Ensure the drill chuck or collet is fully de-energized and locked out before changing bits. Verify chuck capacity accommodates a 0.04-inch shank diameter before seating the bit. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain hole quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 inches\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: 11\/16 inches (0.6875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4xD\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: NAS 907 Type B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 501-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04167 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 6001340\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695134867762,"sku":"6001340","price":23.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/242a725ff91a89d972c5cf595935e053_b5753409-6e85-4f12-8397-47b3e6508431.jpg?v=1788331604","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-6001340-aircraft-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
