It features a 130-degree point angle and a fast spiral flute geometry that promotes chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup during cutting. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 3.18 mm (approximately 0.125 inches) in diameter, and the overall length is 38 mm (approximately 1.496 inches). With a cutting diameter of 0.0354 inches (0.90 mm) and a diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.013 mm, this bit is suited for close-tolerance work where dimensional accuracy matters. It is installed by machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and precision fabricators working with CNC or manual drilling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis micro drill bit is appropriate for use in both production and job-shop environments where small-diameter holes are required in hard or abrasive workpiece materials. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron, hardened steel, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and steel. Secondary materials include alloy steel, aluminum, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals, special alloys, and tool steel. The bright uncoated finish makes the bit suitable for applications where coating interaction with the workpiece is a concern or where re-grinding is anticipated.\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 materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e130-degree point angle reduces thrust and improves centering on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFast spiral flute type promotes efficient chip evacuation in deep or interrupted cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTight diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.013 mm supports close-tolerance hole requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of workpiece materials and regrind programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction, two flutes, Series 302 designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision micro drill bit in the M.A. FORD.

Ensure the spindle and chuck or collet are clean and properly seated before securing the shank, as carbide micro bits are brittle and sensitive to runout. Power down and lock out the machine before changing tooling. Avoid side-loading or using feed rates beyond what the material and machine rigidity support, as micro-diameter carbide tools are susceptible to breakage under lateral stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0354 inches (0.90 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 degrees\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: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 mm (approximately 1.496 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.16 mm (approximately 0.400 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.18 mm (approximately 0.125 inches)\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.013 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 302\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Hardened Steel, Non-Ferrous Metal, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Carbon Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metals, Special Alloy, Stainless Steel, Tool Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0006 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2015\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: 30203540\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744452870450,"sku":"30203540","price":17.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a1bc4d956256abeb31166caebfc994b3_3b21d415-1e58-450f-b03c-2912a471085e.jpg?v=1788856729","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-30203540-micro-drill-bit-0-0354-in-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
