Allied Machine 22010S-003I Indexable Spade Drill Taper Shank

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 22010S-003I is a short-length indexable spade drill designed for general-purpose hole-making in a wide range of workpiece materials. Part of the T-A 1 series, it accepts interchangeable spade drill inserts and operates on a 3MT taper shank for direct mounting in compatible drill press or machining center spindles. Drill diameter range spans 45/64 inches to 15/16 inches, with a maximum drill depth of 2-3/4 inches. Through-coolant delivery via two radial coolant entry ports keeps the cutting zone clear during deep-hole operations. The tool body is steel construction with a straight flute profile. Machinists and tool-room technicians are the primary installers.

This spade drill body is suited for production drilling operations in ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, cast materials, and superalloys, consistent with the universal primary workpiece material rating covering material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. The short-length configuration is well suited to rigid setups where maximum spindle stiffness is required and overhang must be minimized. Through-coolant capability makes it effective for interrupted cuts and materials that generate significant heat at the cutting edge. The 3MT taper shank allows direct spindle fitment without a separate chuck on machines equipped with a Morse taper socket.

Key Features

• Drill diameter range: 45/64 inches to 15/16 inches for flexible insert selection
• Short-length body with 2-3/4 inch maximum drill depth and 3-7/8 inch body length
• 3MT taper shank with 15/16 inch shank diameter for direct spindle mounting
• Through-coolant with two radial entry ports; coolant hole thread size 1/8 inch NPT
• Straight flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation in general-purpose drilling
• Compatible with rotary coolant adapter 2T-3SR for pressurized coolant systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with T-A 1 series spade drill inserts. Compatible with rotary coolant adapter 2T-3SR. Fits machine spindles with a 3MT (No. 3 Morse Taper) socket. Workpiece material compatibility covers universal material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tool-room technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the taper shank. Seat the 3MT taper fully into the spindle socket and secure with a drawbar or drift as required by the machine design. Verify coolant line connections at the 1/8 inch NPT coolant hole before initiating through-coolant flow, and confirm that system pressure is within the insert and body manufacturer limits before cutting.
