Built to Series 403 standards, this tool features a 120-degree drill point angle, a 10mm cutting diameter (0.3937 inches), and a 70mm overall length (2.7559 inches). The bright\/uncoated finish keeps the carbide substrate exposed for general-purpose use across a range of workpiece materials. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC operators install this drill in machining centers and drill presses where precise hole location and consistent entry angles are required before final drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spotting drill is suited for general-purpose metal removal in production and job-shop environments. The 10mm straight-cylindrical shank seats directly in standard ER collets, drill chucks, or hydraulic holders without modification. Its 30mm flute length (1.1811 inches) and 2-flute spiral geometry allow chips to clear efficiently at the shallow depths typical of spotting operations. The single-ended design is standard for this tool class, and the right-hand cutting direction is compatible with conventional CNC and manual spindle rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e120-degree point angle for accurate spot drilling and chamfering before finish drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in general-purpose machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10mm straight-cylindrical shank (0.3937 inches) fits standard collet and chuck tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral geometry with 21-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for dry cutting or use with cutting fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, single-ended design compatible with standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style general-purpose spotting drill for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual mills where a 10mm straight-cylindrical shank tool is required.

Secure the shank fully within the collet or chuck to the recommended grip depth before running the spindle. Confirm spindle rotation is set to right-hand before engaging the cut. Solid carbide tools are brittle compared to high-speed steel — avoid lateral loading, interrupted cuts without proper feed reduction, or dropping the tool on hard surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10mm (0.3937 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 70mm (2.7559 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30mm (1.1811 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10mm (0.3937 inches)\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: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 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\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spotting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 403\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: 40339370\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734891725106,"sku":"40339370","price":124.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0550faee1d2d816beb1e74639c7cf97d_c3b20a6a-4c42-421e-a651-f1fc66e5f895.jpg?v=1788767677","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-40339370-solid-carbide-spotting-drill-10mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
