Built to a 100-degree point angle with a Harvey Type II point geometry, it produces a clean, centered spot that guides twist drills and reduces walkout on flat and curved workpiece surfaces. The 2-flute spiral flute design supports chip evacuation during the spotting pass. At 0.25 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches in overall length, this tool fits standard drill chucks and collets used across CNC machining centers and manual drill presses. The bright, uncoated carbide finish suits a broad range of general-purpose materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spotting drill is used in general-purpose machining environments, including job shops, production floors, and tool rooms. It is suited for spotting operations prior to drilling in steel, aluminum, cast iron, plastics, and similar machinable materials. The single-ended, right-hand-cut configuration is the standard orientation for CNC and manual vertical machining setups. Its 0.25-inch straight-cylindrical shank is compatible with ER collets, drill chucks, and other standard 1\/4-inch bore toolholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100-degree drill point angle for accurate hole spotting and centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarvey Type II point geometry reduces wandering and improves positional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral design promotes chip clearance during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, single-ended configuration for standard machining setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose spotting drill for use with standard 1\/4-inch straight-cylindrical toolholders, including ER collets and drill chucks, on CNC machining centers and manual drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with cutting tool safety practices. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before loading or removing the tool. Verify collet bore or chuck capacity matches the 0.25-inch shank diameter before tightening. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting speeds and feeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Harvey Type II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.018 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spotting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: HARVEY TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 955916\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754807066930,"sku":"955916","price":65.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/590cb55dcc902170540aa8449ae59dd4.jpg?v=1788948777","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-955916-spotting-drill-0-25-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
