Kennametal 4149694 Taper Length Drill Bit

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 4149694 is a taper length drill bit designed for precision hole-making in metal fabrication, machining, and industrial applications. Taper length drills offer a longer flute and body than jobber-length bits, giving machinists and tooling professionals greater reach and improved chip evacuation in deeper drilling operations. This bit is sold as a single unit and weighs 0.7 pounds. It suits environments where standard jobber-length tooling falls short and a rigid, accurate cut is required through the workpiece.

This taper length drill bit is suited for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and manual mill setups where extended reach is needed. It is a fit for metalworking shops, maintenance facilities, and production floor environments. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals are the typical end users. The longer body compared to a jobber drill allows work in deeper bores or recessed features where shorter tooling cannot reach.

Key Features

• Taper length body provides extended reach beyond standard jobber-length drill bits
• Single-piece construction suited for precision drilling in metalworking applications
• Packaged as a single unit for direct tooling replacement or inventory replenishment
• 0.7-pound unit weight indicates a mid-size drill appropriate for bench and CNC use

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit taper length drill for use in standard drill press chucks, CNC tool holders, and milling machine spindles accepting the corresponding shank size and drill diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and the chuck or tool holder is secure before seating or removing the drill bit. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for damage before each use. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines when setting feed rate and spindle speed for the material being drilled.
