Precision Twist Drill 6000075 Spotting Drill 3/4 in Hss

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000075 is a 3/4 inch high speed steel spotting drill designed to accurately locate and start holes before a twist drill follows. Built to a 120-degree point angle, it produces a shallow conical seat that guides the following drill and reduces wander on entry. The spiral flute geometry and straight-cylindrical shank suit standard drill chucks on benchtop drill presses, CNC machining centers, and manual milling machines. With a 5 inch overall length and a bright, uncoated finish, this tool is sized for general-purpose metalworking applications where a spotting operation is required prior to full-depth drilling.

The 6000075 is intended for general-purpose spotting in metals on both manual and CNC setups. It fits production shops, maintenance facilities, and tool rooms where consistent hole location is critical. The 3/4 inch cutting diameter and 1.875 inch flute length make it appropriate for spotting operations in medium to heavy stock. It is sold as a single-ended tool, one piece per package, and is used by machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC operators working to close positional tolerances.

Key Features

• 120-degree point angle creates a precise conical seat that centers and guides the following drill
• High speed steel construction provides adequate hardness and toughness for general-purpose metalworking
• Bright, uncoated finish suits standard coolant environments without added coating cost
• Two-flute spiral design promotes chip clearance during the spotting operation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw drill chucks and collet systems
• Single-ended tool with a 5 inch OAL suited for use in drill presses and machining centers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style spotting drill for general-purpose use in standard drill chucks and collet holders accepting a 3/4 inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed with the spindle fully stopped and the machine in a locked-out, de-energized state per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Secure the straight shank fully within the chuck or collet before tightening to minimize runout. Spotting drills are not designed for full-depth drilling; limit axial depth to the spotting operation only to avoid overloading the short flute length. Verify spindle speed and feed rate settings are appropriate for the workpiece material before engaging the cut.
