It features a 1\/2 inch diameter, a 142-degree split point, and an ALtima coating that extends tool life in abrasive and high-temperature applications. The overall length is 4.75 inches with a flute length of 2.83 inches and a maximum drilling depth of 2.26 inches. A web-thinned, tapered web design reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation. This bit is suited for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with temperature-resistant alloys, high-strength steels, and superalloys in production or maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is engineered for primary use in temperature alloys and high-performance workpiece materials classified under material codes H, M, and S — covering hardened steels, stainless steels, and superalloys. The 2XDCR series is rated for a 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio, making it appropriate for moderate-depth holes in materials that generate significant cutting heat. Coolant-through capability supports high-speed drilling cycles in machining centers and CNC equipment where through-spindle coolant is available. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders with a 1\/2 inch bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eALtima coating provides heat and oxidation resistance, extending tool life in temperature alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e142-degree drill point angle reduces thrust and improves self-centering on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web enhances chip evacuation and lowers cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design supports high-speed CNC drilling with through-spindle coolant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute with a 5xD flute ratio for moderate-depth hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement or production-use drill bit for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual machine tools equipped with a 1\/2 inch straight-shank collet or drill chuck. Intended for drilling temperature alloys, stainless steels, and superalloys within the 0.5000 to 0.6500 inch size range of the 2XDCR series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with carbide tooling. Secure the shank fully in the collet or chuck before operation and verify runout is within acceptable limits, as carbide is brittle and sensitive to lateral loading. Always engage through-spindle coolant before the cut when coolant-through capability is used. Do not exceed the 2.26-inch maximum drilling depth without retracting to clear chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.83 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.26 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\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.077 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\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: Spiral, Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALtima\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Temperature Alloys (Material Codes H, M, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00000 to -0.00071 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: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 2XDCR5000A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737499795762,"sku":"2XDCR5000A","price":464.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/141dc0bd3238054c08783502a6661580_4ab2737a-6245-48d9-b09a-8163dbb9a369.jpg?v=1788789349","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdcr5000a-1-2-inch-solid-carbide-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
