Guhring 9024640045700 Jobber Drill Bit Wire 15 Carbide

Product Description

The GUHRING 9024640045700 is a solid carbide jobber length drill bit designed for precision drilling in non-ferrous materials. It carries a FIREX coating and is ground to a 118-degree faceted point with web thinning for clean entry and reduced thrust. The bit measures 3.15 inches overall length with a 1.85-inch spiral flute and a straight-cylindrical shank diameter of 4.57 mm. Built to DIN specification and manufactured from K40 carbide grade, this bit is suited for production environments where dimensional accuracy and tool life are priorities. It is a right-hand cut, two-flute design with a regular spiral and 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio.

This drill bit is optimized for aluminum and other non-ferrous workpiece materials classified under material code N. Its general-purpose tool performance rating makes it appropriate for job shop and production floor use alike. The 0.1800-inch diameter corresponds to wire gauge size 15, placing it in the 0.1500-to-0.2000-inch decimal inch size range. Maximum drilling depth is 1.581 inches (40.15 mm). It ships as a single unit and is commonly used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with light alloys and plastics.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction in K40 material grade for high wear resistance
• FIREX coating for extended tool life in non-ferrous applications
• 118-degree faceted point with web thinning for accurate entry and reduced walking
• Right-hand cut, two-flute regular spiral optimized for chip evacuation
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets
• DIN specification with diameter tolerance of -0.012 to 0.000 mm for consistent fit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use drill bit for applications requiring a wire size 15 (0.1800-inch) solid carbide jobber drill conforming to DIN specification, Series 2464.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with carbide tooling. Secure the shank fully in a collet or drill chuck rated for the shank diameter before operation. Carbide is brittle compared to high-speed steel — avoid lateral loading, interrupted cuts without proper feed rate adjustment, or side pressure that can cause chipping. Confirm spindle runout is within acceptable limits to protect the tight diameter tolerance of this bit.
