Precision Twist Drill 6001453 No.10 Hss Aircraft Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6001453 is a No. 10 wire gauge high speed steel aircraft extension drill bit designed for deep-reach drilling applications in metal and composite materials. The bit measures 0.1935 inches in diameter with a 6-inch overall length, giving technicians extra reach in confined or deep-bore work. A 135-degree split point promotes self-centering on entry, reducing the need for a center punch on most metals. The oxide finish provides light corrosion resistance and reduces friction during cutting. This is a general-purpose bit suited for production and maintenance drilling in aerospace, HVAC fabrication, and mechanical trades.

This drill bit is built for applications where standard-length bits cannot reach, including drilling through structural members, sheet metal stacks, and deep-set fixtures. The 2.4375-inch flute length accommodates chip evacuation in extended drilling passes. Right-hand cutting direction and a two-flute spiral configuration make it compatible with standard drill motors and drill presses. It conforms to NAS 907 Type B standards, making it appropriate for aerospace and precision mechanical work. Machinists, aircraft mechanics, and field technicians working in metal fabrication will find this bit suited to daily production use.

Key Features

• No. 10 wire gauge size, 0.1935 inches diameter, for precision hole sizing in metal
• 135-degree split point with web thinning for self-centering entry and reduced thrust
• 6-inch overall length for extended reach in deep or obstructed drilling locations
• High speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Oxide finish reduces surface friction and provides light corrosion protection
• NAS 907 Type B compliant for aerospace and precision mechanical applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose aircraft extension drill bit for use in standard 3-jaw drill chucks and drill presses accepting straight-cylindrical shanks at 0.1935 inches diameter.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed and used by machinists, aircraft mechanics, and sheet metal technicians. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck before operation to prevent slippage under torque. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend bit life and improve hole finish. Inspect the split point for wear or chipping before each use, as a damaged point will affect self-centering performance.
