M.a. Ford. 2XDCL2441A Taper Length Drill Bit 6.2 Mm

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 2XDCL2441A is a solid carbide taper length drill bit from the 2XDCL series, designed for precision hole-making in demanding machining applications. It measures 6.2 mm in diameter (0.2441 decimal inch) with a 142-degree point angle and a 60 mm spiral flute length, producing clean, accurate bores in hard and abrasive workpiece materials. The coated carbide construction provides heat and wear resistance at elevated cutting speeds. With an 8 mm straight shank and a 109 mm overall length, this bit fits standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders. It is intended for use by machinists and tooling professionals working with CNC machining centers, drill presses, and similar production equipment.

This drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel. The 7xD flute-length-to-diameter ratio and a maximum drilling depth of 48 mm make it well suited for taper-length through-hole and blind-hole applications in production and job-shop environments. Coolant-through capability supports chip evacuation and thermal control when machining difficult materials at higher feeds and speeds. The right-hand spiral flute geometry promotes efficient chip clearance throughout the cut.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with coating for extended tool life in abrasive materials
• 142-degree point angle reduces thrust and improves centering on entry
• Coolant-through design supports chip evacuation and heat management at depth
• 7xD flute length ratio with 48 mm maximum drilling depth for taper-length applications
• 8 mm straight shank fits standard chucks and collet-style CNC holders
• Right-hand cut, regular spiral flute for consistent chip flow in production drilling

Compatibility

Rated for use in cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel workpieces. Fits standard straight-shank drill chucks and collet holders accepting an 8 mm shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by qualified machinists following machine-specific lockout and de-energization procedures before securing or removing tooling. Ensure the chuck or collet is clean and the shank is fully seated before tightening. When using coolant-through capability, confirm that coolant lines are properly connected and flow is established before initiating the cut. Do not exceed the maximum drilling depth of 48 mm per the tool specification.
