Built to Series 300 standards, it features a 118-degree drill point angle, a tapered web configuration, and a right-hand cutting direction. The fast spiral geometry with a 35-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and clean hole entry, making it well suited for production environments where hole quality and tool life are priorities. Licensed tradespeople and production technicians rely on this bit for consistent, repeatable results in demanding drilling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics, covering a broad range of substrate types common to light manufacturing and electronics assembly. With a 3\/16-inch diameter and matching 3\/16-inch shank, the bit fits standard collets and drill chucks without adapters. The 3\/4-inch flute length and 1-1\/2-inch overall length suit bench drill presses, CNC drilling machines, and hand-held precision drill units used in trade and production settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e118-degree drill point angle for clean entry on cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFast spiral design with 35-degree helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web configuration adds strength and reduces walking at drill entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction compatible with standard drill presses and CNC spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for dry cutting or light cutting fluid applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use drill bit for circuit board and light industrial drilling applications involving cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and plastics, fitting any standard collet or drill chuck accepting a 3\/16-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this drill bit should be performed by qualified machinists, CNC operators, or production technicians familiar with carbide tooling. Secure the shank fully in the collet or chuck before operation and confirm runout is within acceptable tolerance for the application. Solid carbide tooling is brittle and should not be subjected to side loads or impact; handle with care during setup and storage. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machinery guarding requirements during use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches \/ 4.76 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches \/ 4.76 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.75 inches \/ 19.05 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (38.10 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0005 to +0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0119 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: 30018750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728781279538,"sku":"30018750","price":46.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a7edb8b8d904181107cccd2cd0837a09_e5ac2b3a-318e-4bba-81a8-36432e522fa0.jpg?v=1788696157","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-30018750-circuit-board-drill-bit-3-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
