Built from solid carbide and finished with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this bit delivers extended tool life and reduced friction at the cutting edge. It features a 142-degree split point, a right-hand spiral flute, and a straight cylindrical shank. The 4.2 mm (0.1654 inch) diameter, 45 mm flute length, and 100 mm overall length make it well suited for controlled, deep drilling where rigidity and accuracy are critical. Coolant-through capability supports higher feed rates and improved chip evacuation in production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is designed for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and high-precision hand-held drilling operations where consistent hole quality is required. The 7xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports a maximum drilling depth of 36 mm. Material applications include cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel, making it a versatile choice for machine shops, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working across a broad range of workpiece materials.\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\u003eTiN coating reduces friction and extends cutting life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e142-degree drill point angle for accurate entry and reduced thrust force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design aids chip evacuation and heat management at depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with 7xD ratio supports maximum drilling depth of 36 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank with 5 mm diameter fits standard collets and drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style taper length drill for use in CNC machining centers and drill presses equipped with standard straight-shank toolholders or collets accepting a 5 mm shank diameter.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing or securing the bit in the toolholder. Carbide is brittle  -  avoid lateral loading, impact, or over-tightening the collet beyond manufacturer torque guidance. When activating coolant-through function, verify the coolant system pressure is compatible with the machine spindle before operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.2 mm (0.1654 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\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length x Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7xD\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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\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: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2XDCL\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: 2XDCL1654A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743441649970,"sku":"2XDCL1654A","price":189.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e69bdc1fbe9bb0a26bdb72502fb20a0_c409bf82-772b-4b3d-9216-1eb96a0419a3.jpg?v=1788847073","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdcl1654a-taper-length-drill-bit-4-2mm-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
