Accupro 89698989 Solid Carbide Spotting Drill 60 Degree 4mm

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 89698989 is a solid carbide spotting drill designed to accurately locate and start holes before drilling operations. With a 60-degree drill point angle, this tool produces a clean, precise center mark that guides twist drills and reduces walking on flat or curved workpiece surfaces. The 4mm cutting diameter and straight cylindrical shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders. Spiral fluting with a right-hand cut helps clear chips efficiently during the spotting operation. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC operators working in metal fabrication, job shops, and production environments are the primary users of this tool.

This spotting drill is suited for general-purpose use in machining centers, CNC mills, and bench-top drill presses. The single-ended design, bright uncoated finish, and solid carbide construction make it a straightforward choice for spotting operations in steel, aluminum, cast iron, and similar materials where a standard 60-degree included angle is specified. The 14mm flute length provides adequate chip clearance for typical spotting depths without excessive tool overhang.

Key Features

• 60-degree drill point angle for accurate hole location and reduced drill walk

• Bright uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of general-purpose materials
• Right-hand spiral flutes promote chip evacuation during spotting
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard collets and drill chucks
• Single-ended tool for consistent, repeatable setup in CNC and manual operations

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spotting drill compatible with standard collet systems and drill chucks accepting a 4mm straight cylindrical shank, suitable for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or CNC operator should install this tool in a clean, properly sized collet or drill chuck before use. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Confirm runout and tool projection are within the machine and workholding specifications before beginning a spotting operation. Do not use this tool for full-depth drilling beyond its intended spotting application.
