It accepts interchangeable spade drill inserts and covers a drilling diameter range of 1.5 inches to 2.375 inches, with a maximum drilling depth of 4 inches. The body is constructed from steel and features a straight flute design, which promotes chip evacuation in short-hole drilling applications. The 4MT taper shank interfaces directly with machine tool spindles equipped with a Morse Taper No. 4 socket. This tool is installed and serviced by machining professionals and tool-room technicians working with drill presses, lathes, or machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spade drill body is suited for general-purpose and high-performance drilling in universal workpiece material categories including cast iron, steel, non-ferrous metals, and non-metallic materials, corresponding to material codes K, M, N, and P. It is classified as a short-length body in the HP-C series, making it appropriate for rigid setups where minimizing tool overhang is a priority. Typical applications include production drilling in job shops, maintenance and repair operations, and manufacturing environments where a single drill body is used with multiple insert diameters to reduce tooling inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCovers drilling diameters from 1.5 inches to 2.375 inches with interchangeable spade inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4MT taper shank for direct mounting in standard Morse Taper No. 4 spindle sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight flute geometry supports chip flow in short-depth drilling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort body classification minimizes overhang and improves rigidity at the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHP-C series designation indicates high-performance design for universal workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through capability — relies on external or flood coolant delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard spade drill body compatible with machine tool spindles equipped with a 4MT (Morse Taper No. 4) socket.

Before inserting or removing the drill body, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out per applicable machine safety procedures. Clean the taper shank and spindle socket thoroughly before seating to ensure proper contact and runout control. Do not use this body with coolant-through spindle systems, as this tool does not support internal coolant delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Drill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drill Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4MT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.231 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HP-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal (K, M, N, P)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.68 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21431-0004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751618707762,"sku":"21431-0004","price":378.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c48b4d76f2855ad48646d74b38781c35.jpg?v=1788923952","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/allied-machine-21431-0004-indexable-spade-drill-4mt-taper-shank","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
