It carries a 0.1890-inch diameter (Wire Size 12, 4.80 mm) with a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and lowers thrust force at entry. The uncoated carbide construction delivers consistent edge integrity across high-hardness workpiece materials. Overall length is 2 inches with a 0.625-inch flute length and a 1.375-inch shank. Diameter tolerance is held to +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches, making this bit suitable for close-tolerance die and mold work. Two right-hand cutting flutes handle chip evacuation in the short-flute geometry typical of die drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for production and toolroom environments where repeatable, tight-tolerance holes are required in cast iron, steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, austenitic stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, titanium, high-temperature alloys, hardened materials, ceramics, and glass. The Series 200 designation and DIN standard compliance make it a recognized choice for die makers, mold makers, and machinist technicians working on CNC machining centers and manual drill presses requiring short, rigid tooling setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e135-degree split point reduces thrust and self-centers on entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-flute geometry provides added stability in short-chipping materials such as cast iron and hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned design lowers cutting forces and improves chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTight diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches supports close-fit hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIN-standard Series 200 geometry for consistent interchangeability in production tooling programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a straight-flute die drill bit per DIN standards, compatible with 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians familiar with carbide tooling. Secure the shank fully in a collet or drill chuck rated for the spindle speed required by the workpiece material and bit diameter before beginning any operation. Carbide tooling is brittle — avoid side loading, interrupted cuts without appropriate feed rate reduction, or re-chucking with worn or damaged holders that can induce runout. Inspect the cutting edges before each use; chipped carbide should not be run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1890 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.80 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1890 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Austenitic Stainless Steel, Ceramic, Glass, Hardened Materials, High Temperature Alloy, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: M.A. FORD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20018900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732850540850,"sku":"20018900","price":52.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0d0e6c27f83536eeea8a0e7beb6bd97e_a6d50545-1a3c-4c85-8e71-8a092e9aab67.jpg?v=1788747519","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20018900-die-drill-bit-0-1890-inches-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
