Ford 2XDSR2500A Jobber Drill 1\/4 Inch Solid Carbide","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD 2XDSR2500A is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. It features a 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inch) diameter, a 142-degree point angle optimized for hard and abrasive workpieces, and an ALtima AlTiN coating that extends tool life under elevated cutting temperatures. The overall length is 3.25 inches with a 1.74 inch flute length, making it compact enough for most jobber-style applications. A web-thinned, tapered web construction reduces thrust force at entry, and the two-flute right-hand spiral geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation. This drill is suited for shops and field crews working with tight tolerances, with a diameter tolerance of -0.00059 to 0.00000 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2XDSR2500A is intended for drilling steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloys — material categories where standard high-speed steel tooling underperforms. The Series 2XDSR is a high-performance line built for production environments, tool rooms, and MRO applications where consistent hole quality in hard materials is required. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting 1\/4 inch shanks. Maximum drilling depth is 1.39 inches. No coolant-through capability is present, so conventional flood or mist coolant application at the entry point is the typical approach for heat management in ferrous and exotic alloy drilling.\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 and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALtima AlTiN coating provides high-temperature oxidation resistance, extending tool life in steel and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e142-degree point angle reduces thrust and walking on flat or curved surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned, tapered web lowers entry force and improves centering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand, regular spiral flute geometry for consistent chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiameter tolerance of -0.00059 to 0.00000 inches supports close-tolerance hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting a 1\/4 inch straight cylindrical shank. Primary workpiece materials are steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloys (ISO material groups H, M, and S). Part of the M.A. FORD Series 2XDSR high-performance carbide drill line, size range 0.2500 to 0.3000 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill is installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals using standard drill presses, CNC machining centers, or hand-held power tools equipped with a compatible 1\/4 inch chuck or collet. Ensure the spindle and workpiece are secure before engaging the cut. Because this bit lacks coolant-through capability, apply flood or mist coolant externally at the cutting zone to manage heat when drilling steel or high-temperature alloys. Inspect the cutting edge for chipping or wear before each use, as solid carbide tools are brittle and should not be used in setups with excessive runout or vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 142 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.2500 inches (82.55 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: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 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: Regular Spiral, Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute-to-Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5xD\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 AlTiN\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.00059 to 0.00000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0390 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2XDSR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015 Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241634\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: 2XDSR2500A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748272767282,"sku":"2XDSR2500A","price":139.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6a05eedaa50b8b98dd13ea51f36f9919_e8e71975-fd98-4a20-af0c-d751e7217a1d.jpg?v=1788891528","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-2xdsr2500a-jobber-drill-1-4-inch-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
