Built to Series 2575 specifications, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and minimizes the need for a center punch. The parabolic flute geometry improves chip evacuation and allows for faster feed rates compared to standard jobber geometry. At 0.125 inches in diameter with a 5.125-inch overall length and 2.75-inch flute length, this bit is suited for through-hole work in thicker stock where a standard-length drill would fall short. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance mechanics are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use across a broad range of materials including aluminum, brass, carbon steel, cast iron, nickel alloy, plastic, stainless steel, and tool steel. Its cobalt construction and heavy-duty grade make it particularly effective in work-hardening alloys and high-temperature materials where high-speed steel bits lose their edge prematurely. The taper length body provides added rigidity and reach, making it a practical choice for production drilling operations and deep-hole work in plate or structural stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces walking and eliminates the need for center punching on most materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic flute design accelerates chip removal and supports higher feed rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt M42 grade construction resists heat buildup in stainless steel, nickel alloy, and tool steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned and tapered web configuration reduces cutting resistance at the chisel edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight shank with 0.125-inch diameter fits standard drill chucks without adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B94.11M and DIN 340 standards with DIN 338 specification compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for drilling aluminum, brass, carbon steel, cast iron, nickel alloy, plastic, stainless steel, and tool steel.

Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling to prevent rotation and bit breakage. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being drilled, particularly when working stainless steel or nickel alloys. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the material and bit diameter before beginning the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2575\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches (2-3\/4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.125 inches (5-1\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\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\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Brass, Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, Nickel Alloy, Plastic, Stainless Steel, Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B94.11M, DIN 340\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 338\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\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: C16780\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709281927474,"sku":"C16780","price":34.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/314291eb4ffc1e9afba9865633e46c7a_c2cdff9f-4cd2-4dfb-a113-dce51ff8f648.jpg?v=1788453910","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c16780-1-8-in-cobalt-taper-length-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
