It measures 0.0787 inches (2.00 mm) in diameter with an overall length of 2.913 inches (74.00 mm) and a flute length of 0.945 inches (24.00 mm). The bit features a 140-degree drill point angle, a slow spiral flute configuration, and an ALtima coating for extended tool life in abrasive and hard-to-machine materials. It is intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals working in production or job-shop environments where tight tolerances and consistent hole quality are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for ferrous and high-strength material applications including cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, tool steel, high-temperature alloys, and titanium. The 10xD flute-by-diameter ratio and maximum drilling depth of 0.709 inches (18.00 mm) make it appropriate for controlled-depth bores in precision components. Coolant-through capability supports chip evacuation and thermal management at depth, which is especially important when drilling stainless and titanium alloys. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard collet chucks and drill chucks common on CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALtima coating reduces friction and extends tool life in stainless steel, titanium, and high-temperature alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140-degree drill point angle suited for flat-bottom entry and reduced thrust on hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design supports chip flushing and heat control at full drilling depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlow spiral flute type optimized for short-chipping materials such as cast iron and steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0014 inches (+0.0000 to -0.0140 mm) for consistent, accurate hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Series 2MDCL replacement or direct-application micro drill bit compatible with standard straight-cylindrical collet chucks and drill chucks accepting a 3.00 mm (0.118 inch) shank diameter on CNC machining centers, manual mills, and precision drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this tool should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with carbide tooling practices. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a properly sized collet or drill chuck before operation, and verify coolant-through lines are clear before engaging the spindle. Carbide is brittle  -  avoid side loads, interrupted cuts without appropriate feed adjustments, or dropping the tool. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate based on workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0787 inches (2.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.118 inches (3.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.913 inches (74.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.945 inches (24.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.709 inches (18.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0014 inches (+0.0000 to -0.0140 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Austenitic Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, High Temperature Alloys, Stainless Steel, Titanium, Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015\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: 2MDCL0787A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743095259442,"sku":"2MDCL0787A","price":199.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a1c7c8099aa239808818a2ae9b6e99f2.jpg?v=1788842614","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2mdcl0787a-micro-drill-bit-0-0787-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
