Built with a 90-degree point angle and Harvey Type I point geometry, this tool seats accurately on flat and curved workpiece surfaces, reducing drill walk and improving hole-location accuracy. The 0.125-inch cutting diameter and spiral flute design promote clean chip evacuation during spotting operations. At 3 inches overall length with a 0.375-inch flute length, it is sized for tight-clearance setups on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills alike. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this tool as a first-operation step before finish drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spotting drill is suited for general-purpose spotting operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bright uncoated finish makes it a versatile choice when coolant compatibility with coated tools is a concern. Its 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank seats directly into standard collet chucks and drill chucks without adapters, making it accessible across a wide range of machine setups. It is a single-ended, right-hand-cut tool intended for conventional clockwise spindle rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree drill point angle for accurate spot location and reduced drill walk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarvey Type I point geometry for consistent seating on flat and contoured surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in general-purpose machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral flutes with 2-flute configuration for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids and materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard collet and drill chuck toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose spotting drill compatible with CNC machining centers and manual mills using standard collet chucks or drill chucks that accept a 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and operation of this tool should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Power down the spindle and confirm zero RPM before installing or removing the tool from the chuck. Verify collet or chuck runout is within acceptable tolerance before use, as excessive runout at this diameter can cause premature tool breakage. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines for feed rate and spindle speed selection appropriate to the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\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\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Harvey Type I\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: 0.0100 inches\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\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\u003eEnded\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: 988008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735677305138,"sku":"988008","price":59.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b757a3129603eb752d76c6980745c784.jpg?v=1788773585","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-988008-spotting-drill-1-8-in-90-deg-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
