The bit measures 0.2559 inches (6.50 mm) in diameter with an overall length of 2.6378 inches (67.00 mm) and features a 135-degree split point for accurate self-centering starts with minimal walking. Constructed from solid carbide with a coated finish, this bit delivers extended tool life compared to HSS alternatives. Right-hand cut with a slow spiral flute and web-thinned parallel web configuration, it is suited for machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals who require tight-tolerance hole production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20525590T is built for drilling into cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and steel. Its screw machine length profile  -  shorter than jobber length  -  provides added rigidity in turret lathes, CNC machining centers, and screw machine setups where reduced overhang and chatter control matter. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without modification. The 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip evacuation in moderate-depth holes typical of production drilling environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with coated finish for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point with web thinning for self-centering entry and reduced thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlow spiral flute geometry optimized for cast iron, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew machine length body (2.6378 inches overall) provides rigidity in short-reach setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank (0.2559 inches diameter) fits standard chucks and collet holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches for consistent, close-tolerance hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-application drill bit for use in CNC machining centers, turret lathes, and screw machine setups requiring a 0.2559-inch diameter screw machine length drill.

Ensure the spindle and machine are fully powered down and locked out before changing tooling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the workpiece material, as this bit does not feature through-coolant capability. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace if chipping or wear is detected to maintain hole tolerance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2559 inches (6.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6378 inches (67.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4370 inches (36.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2008 inches (30.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2559 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: Coated\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\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\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: 205\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 20525590T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742123557170,"sku":"20525590T","price":103.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f08e4cc86bc9f13b401ef4fe0fdfc632_949f481c-f622-4fc6-9ce3-a24b2dcc7322.jpg?v=1788835402","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-20525590t-screw-machine-drill-bit-0-2559-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
