M.a. Ford. 67081201 60 Degree Hss Countersink

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 67081201 is a single-end, zero-flute countersink made from high-speed steel for use in drilling and machining operations. With a 60-degree included angle and a 13/16-inch head diameter, it produces clean chamfers and countersinks in a wide range of materials. The straight cylindrical shank measures 1/2 inch in diameter and the tool has an overall length of 2-5/8 inches. The bright uncoated finish makes this tool well suited for general-purpose shop and production use. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance professionals install and operate this tool in standard drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers.

This countersink is designed for chamfering, countersinking, and deburring operations across a broad range of workpiece materials. Its zero-flute conical geometry is appropriate for use on alloy steel, mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-tensile steel, high-nickel steel, Monel, aluminum, brass, magnesium, magnesium alloy, and plastic. It is suited for both production environments and job-shop applications where consistent chamfer geometry at 60 degrees is required. The single-end design allows straightforward replacement when the cutting edge is spent.

Key Features

• 60-degree included angle with 30-degree centerline angle for standard chamfer and countersink profiles
• Zero-flute conical design minimizes chatter on a wide range of materials
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 1/2-inch straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chuck and collet holders
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose and light production machining
• Single-end, no-pilot design for use in standard drill presses, lathes, and machining centers

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1/2-inch drill chucks and collet holders on drill presses, lathes, mills, and CNC machining centers performing chamfering, countersinking, and deburring operations.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists and machining technicians in standard drill chucks or collet-style toolholders. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before changing tools. Verify chuck or collet runout is within acceptable limits before operation to maintain chamfer geometry and tool life. Do not exceed the recommended spindle speeds for the workpiece material being machined.
