Flute length 1-3/4-Inch. Overall length 2-7/8-Inch. Cuts well in both hard and soft woods. Made of high speed steel to hold its sharp cutting edge longer.
The packaging states that drill #6 has a tapered thread. Compared to other cones in my set it looks more like a #8 cone. A hole made with this drill would swallow a $6 screw. Go back and look for the real drill #6.
