Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it accepts a No. 2 Morse Taper (2MT) shank, making it compatible with drill presses, lathes, and milling machines equipped with the appropriate taper socket. The cutting diameter is 43\/64 inch (0.6719 inch decimal), with a standard 118-degree point angle and a web-thinned tip that reduces thrust and improves penetration. This bit is suited for machinists, tool-and-die shops, maintenance technicians, and fabrication professionals who require consistent, repeatable hole quality in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C12212 is designed for right-hand cutting in general-purpose applications. The spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation during drilling operations. With a 5-3\/8 inch flute length and 9-1\/4 inch overall length, this bit handles moderate-depth holes in a range of workpiece thicknesses. It conforms to ASME B94.11M standards, making it a recognized fit for shops that maintain tooling compliance. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a 2MT taper shank bit in the 43\/64 inch diameter range is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish provides a degree of surface hardness and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2MT taper shank fits standard Morse taper sockets on drill presses and lathes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web thinning to reduce entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute promotes chip clearing during through-hole and blind-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M dimensional and tolerance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or stock taper shank drill bit for machines equipped with a No. 2 Morse Taper spindle socket, including drill presses, engine lathes, and milling machine spindles configured for 2MT tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal of taper shank tooling should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the machine before seating or drifting out the taper shank. Use a proper drift key and drift slot to remove the bit — never strike the spindle housing directly. Verify taper socket cleanliness and condition before seating to ensure full taper contact and prevent slippage under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 43\/64 inch (0.6719 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2MT (No. 2 Morse Taper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-3\/8 inches (5.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9-1\/4 inches (9.25 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2410\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C12212\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722176495922,"sku":"C12212","price":85.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7dbf11dfd75702b5ecc2df24a5258add_05d2a2c4-01e3-4f1b-a6b4-82e13cee3f3a.jpg?v=1788586798","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c12212-taper-shank-drill-bit-43-64-in-2mt-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
