Allied Machine 60317S-075F Indexable Spade Drill Straight Flute

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 60317S-075F is an indexable spade drill designed for precise hole-making in a wide range of workpiece materials. Part of the GEN3SYS 17 series, it covers a drilling diameter range of 0.6693 to 0.7086 inches (17.00 to 17.99 mm) with a maximum drill depth of 2-1/8 inches and a 3xD depth-to-diameter ratio. The steel body features a straight flute design and axial concentric through-coolant entry, supporting consistent chip evacuation and tool life during production drilling operations. The 3/4-inch flatted shank seats securely in compatible drill holders for repeatable runout control.

This spade drill is suited for general-purpose drilling in production machining environments, including CNC machining centers and drill presses equipped with through-coolant capability. The GEN3SYS 17 series accommodates universal workpiece materials, including cast iron, steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous alloys, making it a versatile choice for shops running varied material types. It is installed and operated by machinists and tooling technicians in both job shop and high-volume manufacturing settings.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the coolant supply is isolated before mounting or removing the drill body. Confirm the holder bore and shank are clean and free of debris before seating the shank to maintain runout specifications. Verify coolant line connections at the 1/8 inch NPT port are secure and leak-free before initiating a cutting cycle.
