Ingersoll Cutting Tools 3208167 Indexable Spotting Drill

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 3208167 is an indexable spotting drill designed for general-purpose spotting operations in metal fabrication and machining environments. Built around a 0.782-inch drill diameter and an 82-degree point angle, this tool creates precise center starts for follow-on drilling operations. The Weldon flat shank measures 0.906 inches in diameter and provides a secure, non-slip grip in compatible tool holders. With an overall length of 3.5 inches, the 3208167 accepts a single TFLT 15T308N insert, allowing quick index changes without removing the holder from the machine. It belongs to the INGERSOLL FAK series and is suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills where repeatable spotting accuracy is required.

This spotting drill is intended for use on machining centers, vertical mills, and similar setups in job shops, production facilities, and manufacturing environments. The indexable insert design reduces tool downtime by eliminating the need to regrind or replace the entire body when the cutting edge wears. The 82-degree point angle is a widely used geometry for spotting applications that precede standard twist drills, helping to accurately locate hole positions and reduce walking on flat or angled workpiece surfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or indexing the insert.
