Guhring 9055180170000 Carbide Jobber Drill 17mm

Product Description

The GUHRING 9055180170000 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit designed for precision hole-making in demanding machining applications. Built to Series 5518 specifications, it features a 17.00 mm diameter, a 130-degree proprietary point angle, and a web-thinned tip geometry that promotes self-centering entry without a center punch. The bright, uncoated carbide construction delivers hardness and wear resistance suitable for high-performance production environments. With a regular spiral flute design and right-hand cutting direction, this drill produces clean, consistent bores in a single pass when run at appropriate speeds and feeds.

This drill is suited for machining cast iron, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials in both manual and CNC machining center applications. The straight cylindrical shank measures 18 mm in diameter with a shank length of 48 mm, making it compatible with standard ER and hydraulic toolholders used in typical shop environments. The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio and 93.00 mm flute length support chip evacuation in moderate-depth drilling operations. It is appropriate for job shop, production, and maintenance machining work where tight-tolerance hole sizing is required.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction rated for high-performance cutting in cast iron, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials
• 130-degree proprietary point angle with web-thinned geometry for self-centering entry
• Three-flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation and improved hole finish
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and abrasive cast materials
• Straight cylindrical shank conforms to DIN 6535 and DIN 6537 L standards
• 5xD flute ratio provides a maximum drilling depth of 67.50 mm (2.657 inches)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-specification solid carbide jobber drill for use in standard 18 mm straight-shank toolholders on CNC machining centers and drill presses configured for carbide tooling in cast iron and non-ferrous workpiece applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the straight shank firmly in a collet chuck or hydraulic toolholder rated for the shank diameter before operation. Ensure the spindle and workpiece are fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Do not use this drill in hand-held power tools; it is intended for rigid machine-tool setups only.
