It measures 0.1850 inches in diameter and carries a 118-degree faceted point with web thinning for reduced thrust and cleaner entry. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 0.1850 inches and fits standard drill chucks without adapters. Overall length is 2.75 inches with a 1.625-inch spiral flute. The bright, uncoated finish makes wear patterns easy to monitor and works well in dry or misted cutting conditions. This is a 2-flute, right-hand-cut bit from M.A. FORD Series 204, built to ISO 9001:2015 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and carbon steel. The solid carbide construction handles the harder materials and abrasive alloys that would prematurely wear high-speed steel tooling. The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports jobber-length reach in typical through-hole and blind-hole operations on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and production manual machines. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in metalworking and fabrication environments are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree faceted point with web thinning reduces entry thrust and improves chip ejection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, 2-flute spiral geometry with regular spiral type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish allows visual wear monitoring and suits a range of cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches for close-tolerance hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber-length drill bit for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metal, stainless steel, and steel workpieces; compatible with any standard drill chuck accepting a 0.1850-inch straight-cylindrical shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall and remove this bit with the spindle fully stopped and the machine powered down or in an e-stop state. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck to the full depth of chuck engagement before cycling the spindle. Use appropriate cutting fluid or mist for the workpiece material, particularly with stainless steel and cast iron, to manage heat and chip evacuation. Inspect the cutting edges and point for chipping before each use, as solid carbide is brittle and sensitive to side loading or interrupted cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Wire)\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1850 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1850 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Faceted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inches\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015\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: 20418500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739358986546,"sku":"20418500","price":57.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3443583573f8dad1c3555b01a59849af_f7d5ad84-9c02-4420-80c6-d8e68967fcc7.jpg?v=1788813558","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20418500-jobber-drill-bit-no-13-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
