It features a regular spiral flute, right-hand cutting direction, and a straight cylindrical shank. Overall length is 3.5 inches with a flute length of 2.125 inches. The bright, uncoated finish is standard for solid carbide tooling used in applications where coating is not required. This drill is manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 certification and is intended for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking professionals on manual or CNC drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill is rated as a general-purpose tool with a 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio, making it well suited for drilling steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals in production and job-shop environments. It is part of M.A. FORD Series 204, which covers solid carbide jobber drills in the 0.2500 to 0.3000 inch diameter range. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces where dimensional accuracy and tool life are priorities over cost-per-hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in steel and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree, 4-facet point for self-centering entry and reduced thrust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned design reduces cutting resistance at drill entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for dry or light-lubrication drilling\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 solid carbide jobber drill for use in steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials. Compatible with any drilling machine or CNC machining center accepting a 0.2610-inch straight cylindrical shank.

Use an appropriate drill chuck or collet rated for the 0.2610-inch straight shank diameter and ensure secure clamping before operation. Solid carbide tooling is brittle compared to high-speed steel; avoid side-loading, interrupted cuts without proper feed rates, and dropping or impacting the cutting edges. Follow the machine manufacturer and workpiece material guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2610 inches\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: 4 Facet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\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 Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.125 inches (53.98 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches (88.90 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2610 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Aluminum, Non-Ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015 Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0686 pounds\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: 20426100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743280988466,"sku":"20426100","price":86.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3443583573f8dad1c3555b01a59849af_4f90d220-5f4b-4de8-8bdc-3f48926ae541.jpg?v=1788845019","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20426100-solid-carbide-jobber-drill-letter-g","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
