Built from high-speed steel with an oxide finish, it measures 31\/32 inches (0.9688 inches) in diameter and carries a 3MT Morse taper shank for secure seating in compatible drill presses, lathes, and milling machines. The 118-degree standard point with web thinning reduces thrust and improves chip ejection at start-up. Overall length is 11 inches with a 6.375-inch spiral flute that promotes consistent chip clearance during through-hole and blind-hole operations. This bit is manufactured to ASME B94.11M standards and suited for right-hand cutting in general-purpose applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is intended for use in stationary machine tool setups where a Morse taper socket or sleeve is available. Typical applications include production drilling in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar machinable materials. The 3MT taper shank is commonly found on mid-size drill presses and lathes in job shop, manufacturing, and maintenance environments. It is not designed for handheld portable drill use. Machinists and tool-room professionals will find it appropriate for standard hole-making operations where a straight-shank bit lacks the rigidity or holding force needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e31\/32-inch diameter (0.9688 inches) with a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3MT Morse taper shank for positive drive and self-centering in compatible spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web thinning to reduce entry thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction with oxide finish for lubricity and light corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular spiral flute, 6.375 inches long, for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting; meets ASME B94.11M dimensional standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in machine spindles, drill presses, lathes, and milling machine quills fitted with a No. 3 Morse taper socket.

Clean both the shank and the spindle socket with a clean cloth to remove chips, oil, and debris before seating — contamination prevents full taper engagement and can cause runout or ejection during operation. Drive the shank firmly into the socket with a soft mallet or use the machine drawbar if equipped; never use excessive lateral force. A drift and drift slot should be used to eject the bit safely when removal is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31\/32 inches (0.9688 inches)\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\u003eShank Taper\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3MT (No. 3 Morse Taper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.375 inches\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\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\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\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\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: C12247\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699570770226,"sku":"C12247","price":148.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7dbf11dfd75702b5ecc2df24a5258add_10ebdb7f-e575-46dd-8fe0-85bd6f1a738d.jpg?v=1788377615","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c12247-taper-shank-drill-bit-31-32-in-3mt-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
