M.a. Ford. 2XDCS1181A Carbide Jobber Drill 3.00 Mm

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 2XDCS1181A is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. It carries a 142-degree split point, a dual ALtima and Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, and a right-hand spiral flute geometry. The drill measures 3.00 mm in diameter with an overall length of 57.00 mm (2.2441 inches) and a flute length of 16.00 mm (0.6299 inches). Coolant-through capability supports chip evacuation and heat management during deep-hole operations. This bit is built to DIN 6537 K standards and is produced under ISO 9001:2015 certified conditions, making it suitable for precision machining environments where tool consistency and surface finish matter.

The 2XDCS1181A is intended for cutting temperature-resistant alloys and other difficult-to-machine workpiece materials classified under material codes H, M, and S. Typical applications include aerospace, energy, and medical component machining where titanium alloys, stainless steels, and nickel-based superalloys are common. The 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports chip clearance in short, controlled drilling cycles. Machinists and CNC operators working in production or job-shop environments will find this drill suitable for use in both vertical machining centers and drill presses equipped with coolant delivery systems.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials
• ALtima plus TiN dual coating reduces friction and extends tool life in temp alloy applications
• 142-degree point angle improves self-centering and reduces thrust force at entry
• Coolant-through design delivers cutting fluid directly to the cutting zone for effective chip flushing
• Right-hand spiral flute with regular spiral type for predictable chip evacuation
• Conforms to DIN 6537 K geometry standards; manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 certified processes

Compatibility

Designed for use in drilling temperature-resistant alloys (material group codes H, M, and S) including titanium alloys, stainless steels, and high-temperature superalloys. Intended for use in machine tool setups with internal coolant supply capability.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed and operated by machinists or CNC programmers in a controlled machining environment. Before changing tooling, shut down and lock out the machine spindle per shop safety protocols. Verify collet or chuck bore matches the 3.00 mm straight-cylindrical shank diameter to ensure proper runout control. Do not exceed the maximum recommended drilling depth of 13.00 mm per pass without retracting for chip clearance.
