Built from solid carbide and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this bit delivers extended tool life and consistent performance in hard and abrasive materials. It measures 3.7 mm in diameter (0.1457 inches) with a 142-degree drill point angle suited for flat-bottomed entry and reduced walking on hard surfaces. The overall length is 92 mm with a 44 mm flute length, and the straight cylindrical shank measures 4.0 mm in diameter. Coolant-through capability supports high-speed deep drilling operations with effective chip evacuation. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary installers of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, alloy steel, and tool steel. The 7xD flute-length-to-diameter ratio and maximum drilling depth of 35 mm make it well suited for medium-depth precision bores in CNC machining centers and manual mills. The right-hand spiral flute geometry promotes consistent chip removal throughout the cut. The straight shank allows direct mounting in standard drill chucks and collet-style toolholders without adapters. It fits into production environments where tight diameter tolerances are required, with a diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.012 mm.\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 reduces friction and extends cutting edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e142-degree point angle minimizes drill walk and reduces thrust force on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design supports deep drilling with active chip and heat management\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7xD flute ratio with a maximum drilling depth of 35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTight diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.012 mm for precision bore applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel workpieces.

Verify the toolholder runout meets the tolerance requirements of the application before engaging the cut. Do not exceed the rated maximum drilling depth of 35 mm for this bit diameter. Confirm coolant flow is active before beginning deep-hole operations to prevent thermal damage to the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.7 mm (0.1457 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 142 degrees\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: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: 92 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.0 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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.57 mm\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2XDCL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0273 pounds\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: 2XDCL1457A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743390826802,"sku":"2XDCL1457A","price":173.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e69bdc1fbe9bb0a26bdb72502fb20a0_ee74f441-60ee-4b6d-a91d-6ef7d4446f1a.jpg?v=1788846522","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdcl1457a-taper-length-drill-bit-3-7mm-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
