M.a. Ford. 30005110 Circuit Board Drill Bit 1.3 Mm

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 30005110 is a solid carbide circuit board drill bit engineered for precision drilling in printed circuit board fabrication and similar fine-tolerance applications. Measuring 1.3 mm in diameter (0.0511 inches) with an overall length of 38 mm (approximately 1.496 inches) and a flute length of 16 mm (approximately 0.63 inches), this bit features a 118-degree point angle and a fast spiral design with a 35-degree helix angle. The uncoated solid carbide construction provides rigidity and dimensional accuracy required for small-hole drilling. It is sized and configured for use by electronics assembly technicians, precision machinists, and professional fabricators.

This drill bit is suited for drilling cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and steel in production and repair environments. The Series 300 designation places it within M.A. FORD.'s line of circuit board tooling, making it appropriate for high-speed spindle applications where concentricity and hole quality are critical. The 2-flute, right-hand cut geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in the small-diameter bore. It is sold and packaged as a single unit, fitting workflows where individual bit replacement is standard practice.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in small-diameter drilling
• 1.3 mm diameter (0.0511 inches) with tight tolerance range of -0.013 to +0.000 mm
• 118-degree point angle for accurate entry and reduced wandering
• Fast spiral with 35-degree helix angle promotes chip clearance in deep holes
• Right-hand cut, 2-flute geometry compatible with standard CNC and manual spindles
• Uncoated finish maintains original carbide edge geometry without coating buildup

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style circuit board drill bit compatible with standard high-speed spindles and CNC drilling equipment that accept 1.3 mm shank diameter tooling in PCB and precision metal-drilling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or electronics fabrication technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify collet or chuck condition and cleanliness before seating the bit, as contamination or wear can affect runout and hole quality. Do not exceed the spindle speed rating recommended for solid carbide tooling at this diameter.
