M.a. Ford 2XDCL4134A Taper Length Drill Bit 10.5mm

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 2XDCL4134A is a taper length drill bit engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional machining and fabrication environments. Built from solid carbide with a TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this bit delivers extended tool life and heat resistance under high-cycle conditions. It features a 142-degree point angle optimized for accurate entry and reduced thrust, a right-hand spiral flute, and through-coolant capability that keeps the cutting zone clear and controlled. The straight cylindrical shank measures 12 mm in diameter and seats securely in standard drill chucks and toolholders. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and CNC operators are the primary installers of this tooling.

This drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, alloy steel, and tool steel. The 7xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports deeper drilling cycles with reliable chip evacuation. With a maximum drilling depth of 74 mm and an overall length of 149 mm, it suits both manual drill press setups and CNC machining centers where consistent bore quality and dimensional accuracy are required in production environments.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard-metal applications
• TiN coating extends cutting life and reduces friction at the tool-workpiece interface
• 142-degree point angle reduces walking and improves hole-entry accuracy
• Through-coolant capable for effective chip flushing in deep-hole operations
• Right-hand spiral flute with regular helix promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank compatible with standard collet chucks and drill toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use in materials including cast iron, titanium, carbon steel, steel, and tool steel. Compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 12 mm shank diameter.

Installation Notes

This tooling should be installed by qualified machinists or CNC technicians following the machine tool manufacturer's setup procedures. Ensure the spindle is powered off and fully stopped before inserting or removing the bit from the toolholder. Confirm through-coolant pressure is within the machine's rated range before beginning deep-hole cycles. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use, as carbide tooling can fail suddenly if run with damaged geometry.
