Built to Series 200 specifications, it features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and lowers thrust force at entry. The uncoated carbide construction delivers hardness and heat resistance suited for high-tolerance drilling applications. With an overall length of 2 inches and a 0.6250-inch flute, this bit is compact and rigid, making it a reliable choice for die and mold work as well as precision machining operations. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers of this type of tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for use in holemaking applications across a broad range of workpiece materials including cast iron, steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, austenitic stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, titanium, high temperature alloys, hardened materials, ceramics, and glass. The 0.1850-inch diameter corresponds to a number 13 wire gauge size. Its right-hand cutting direction suits standard CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual mills. The split point and web-thinned geometry make it particularly effective in hard-to-drill materials where a conventional point would skate or chip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance in difficult workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning reduces thrust, minimizes walking, and improves hole entry accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-flute geometry suited for short-chip materials such as cast iron and hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish maintains sharp edge geometry and simplifies regrinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance held to +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches for close-tolerance holemaking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to DIN standards for consistent dimensional performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for holemaking in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel, alloy steel, austenitic stainless steel, ceramics, glass, hardened materials, high temperature alloys, and titanium as specified by the manufacturer for Series 200 tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tooling is installed and operated by machinists and toolroom technicians on CNC machining centers, drill presses, or manual milling machines. Before changing or setting tooling, de-energize the machine and engage all lockout-tagout procedures per applicable safety protocols. Use appropriate collet or chuck with correct shank diameter clearance to avoid runout.
