Measuring 5\/8 inch in diameter with a 118-degree faceted drill point, this bit delivers clean, accurate entry in cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, and non-ferrous metals. The overall length is 5.25 inches with a 3.5-inch flute length, providing the reach needed for standard jobber-length drilling tasks. A bright, uncoated finish suits applications where coating is not required or could interfere with tight tolerances. Licensed machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance trade professionals are the primary users of this tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous production environments, tool rooms, and maintenance shops. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron, non-ferrous metal, stainless steel, and steel, covering a wide range of industrial drilling scenarios. The regular spiral flute geometry and 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio support chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole applications. The straight-cylindrical shank accepts standard drill chucks and collet holders commonly found in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held power drills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree faceted drill point with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced thrust and improved centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish maintains tight diameter tolerance of -0.0005 to 0.0000 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks and collets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to ISO 9001:2015 certified quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose jobber length drill bit for use in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and power drills equipped with standard drill chucks or collet holders accepting a 5\/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Ensure the machine spindle and chuck are fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the bit. Seat the straight-cylindrical shank fully and evenly in the chuck or collet to prevent runout and premature tool breakage. Solid carbide tooling is brittle and should not be subjected to side-loading, impact, or improper feed rates beyond the tool's rated capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.6250 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch\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\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\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, 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\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\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to 0.0000 inch\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\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\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 20462500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744010207538,"sku":"20462500","price":326.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3443583573f8dad1c3555b01a59849af_65071c13-7dfe-45ef-9ede-993e0e4f41e2.jpg?v=1788852853","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20462500-solid-carbide-jobber-drill-bit-5-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
