Sized at Letter E (0.2500 inches), it features a 142-degree split point and an ALtima AlTiN (Aluminum Titanium Nitride) coating that improves heat resistance and extends tool life in abrasive cutting environments. With an overall length of 3.3000 inches and a flute length of 1.7400 inches, this drill is built for precision work in steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloys. It is designed for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with CNC machining centers and drill presses where tight tolerances are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill is best suited for production and job-shop environments tackling steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloy workpieces. The coolant-through design supports through-spindle coolant delivery, making it well matched for CNC machining applications where chip evacuation and heat management are critical. The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio and regular spiral flute geometry support consistent chip flow during deeper passes up to a maximum drilling depth of 1.3900 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALtima AlTiN coating increases surface hardness and thermal resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e142-degree point angle reduces thrust force and improves entry accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through capability for through-spindle coolant delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, regular spiral flute with 5xD flute-by-diameter ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank at 0.2500 inches for standard collet or chuck mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to DIN 6537 K standard and ISO 9001:2015 certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and other machine tool setups accepting a 0.2500-inch straight shank.

Part of the M.A. FORD Series 2XDCR high-performance carbide drill family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with carbide tooling. Secure the straight shank in a precision collet or drill chuck rated for the spindle speed required by the workpiece material. Carbide tooling is brittle  -  avoid side loading and do not use this drill for manual hand-drilling applications. Verify through-spindle coolant pressure and flow settings before beginning production cuts to protect both the tool and the workpiece surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: E\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Decimal Inch)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Fractional)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima AlTiN (Aluminum 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3000 inches (83.82 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7400 inches (44.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3900 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute By Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, High-Temperature Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00000 to -0.00059 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2XDCR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN 6537 K; ISO 9001:2015 Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.064 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: 2XDCR2500A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740100952370,"sku":"2XDCR2500A","price":183.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/141dc0bd3238054c08783502a6661580_5d8aded8-70ca-4fde-ac53-25eb739a4a84.jpg?v=1788822290","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdcr2500a-jobber-drill-letter-e-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
