Harvey Tool 11462-C3 Spotting Drill 1/16 in 90 Deg Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 11462-C3 is a solid carbide spotting drill designed to create precise starter locations for follow-on drilling operations. It features a 90-degree point angle and a 0.0625-inch cutting diameter, making it suited for tight-tolerance work where accurate hole positioning is critical. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in demanding cutting conditions. With a 1.5-inch overall length and a 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank, this drill fits standard collets and chucks used in CNC machining centers and manual mills. It is a single-ended, right-hand cut tool with a spiral flute geometry.

This spotting drill is intended for general-purpose metal cutting applications where a clean, accurate cone seat must be established before drilling. The small 1/16-inch cutting diameter makes it appropriate for close-quarter work and small-diameter hole patterns. Machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC programmers working in metalworking shops, aerospace job shops, and precision manufacturing environments will find this drill suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. No specific compatible machine models are stated in the product data.

Key Features

• 90-degree point angle for accurate drill spotting and chamfering
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating increases surface hardness and thermal resistance during cutting
• Spiral flute design with 2 flutes for chip evacuation in short-depth spots
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard ER collets and drill chucks
• Harvey Type I point geometry for consistent seat geometry

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spotting drill for use in CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses equipped with collet chucks or drill chucks accepting a 0.125-inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool changer or chuck is secured before inserting or removing the drill. Confirm collet size matches the 0.125-inch shank diameter to prevent runout. Use appropriate feeds and speeds for the workpiece material and consult the manufacturer's cutting data for AlTiN-coated carbide tooling.
