Built to Series 2XDCL specifications, this bit features a 142-degree split point, a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, and a spiral flute configuration optimized for chip evacuation. The 3.5 mm diameter (0.1378 decimal inch) drill delivers consistent hole quality with a diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.012 mm. Coolant-through capability supports high-speed, deep-hole operations. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and CNC operators handling tight-tolerance work rely on this bit for repeatable performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for use on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and multi-axis lathes in production and job-shop environments. It performs across a range of materials including cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel. The 7xD flute-length-to-diameter ratio and a maximum drilling depth of 35 mm make it well-matched for through-holes and moderate blind-hole applications in medium to hard workpiece materials. The straight cylindrical shank seats cleanly in standard collets and chucks without special tooling adapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and heat resistance in hard-material drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating extends cutting edge life and reduces built-up edge in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e142-degree drill point angle promotes accurate entry and reduces thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design supports chip flushing and tool cooling at depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7xD flute-length-to-diameter ratio allows drilling up to 35 mm maximum depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.012 mm for close-tolerance hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a taper length replacement or production drill for machining operations involving cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel workpieces.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and properly torqued before seating the bit. Solid carbide tooling is brittle and should not be used in setups with excessive runout or unsupported workpiece vibration, as chipping or fracture can result. Verify coolant flow through the spindle is active before beginning deep-hole cycles when using the coolant-through feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2XDCL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 mm (0.1378 inches)\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: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 142 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 92 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 mm (1.8897 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.54 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length to Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7xD\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreaded Shank\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: +0.000 to -0.012 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Titanium, Carbon Steel, Steel, Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0264 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: 2XDCL1378A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740800123186,"sku":"2XDCL1378A","price":173.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e69bdc1fbe9bb0a26bdb72502fb20a0_967bf7aa-7ae1-4b8e-8372-9f40860df3e2.jpg?v=1788827495","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdcl1378a-taper-length-drill-bit-3-5mm-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
