Harvey Tool 816060-C3 Spotting Drill 0.06in 90 Deg Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 816060-C3 is a solid carbide spotting drill designed to create precise starter points for follow-on drilling operations. It features a 90-degree point angle and a 0.06-inch cutting diameter, making it well suited for tight-tolerance work where accurate hole location is critical. The AlTiN coating improves surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in demanding cutting conditions. With an overall length of 1.5 inches and a flute length of 0.09 inches, this drill is built for compact, controlled engagement. It is a single-ended tool with a right-hand cut and is typically installed and run by machinists and CNC operators.

This spotting drill is intended for general-purpose spotting applications across a range of materials commonly machined in production and job-shop environments. Its 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank fits standard collets and drill chucks, making it straightforward to set up in vertical machining centers, drill presses, and CNC mills. The Harvey Type I point geometry and two-flute spiral design promote clean, centered entry points before drilling with larger diameter tooling.

Key Features

• 90-degree point angle for accurate spot location and countersink alignment
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life
• Two-flute spiral design with Harvey Type I point geometry
• Right-hand cut with straight cylindrical shank for broad collet compatibility
• Web thickness of 0.005 inches for controlled chip formation at small diameters

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spotting drill compatible with standard 0.125-inch straight-shank collets and drill chucks used in CNC machining centers and drill presses.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is secured before loading or changing tooling. Confirm runout on the shank before cycling the machine, as runout at this diameter will directly affect spot accuracy. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety protocols when setting speeds and feeds for carbide tooling.
