Precision Twist Drill 6000122 Spotting Drill 1/2 in

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000122 is a TiN-coated high-speed steel spotting drill designed to create accurate center marks and guide holes before full drilling operations. With a 1/2 inch cutting diameter and a 120-degree point angle, it delivers clean, precise spot locations that reduce drill wander and improve hole-position accuracy. The titanium nitride coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life in production and job-shop environments. At 6 inches overall length with a 1/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank, it mounts directly in standard drill chucks and collet holders. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and fabrication shop operators use this drill for general-purpose spotting work across a wide range of materials.

This spotting drill is suited for use on CNC machining centers, manual drill presses, and knee mills where pre-spotting is required before twist drilling, tapping, or boring operations. The right-hand cut and two-flute spiral flute geometry make it appropriate for spotting in steel, aluminum, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials in both production and maintenance machining environments. It is sold individually and belongs to the SPRG-120 series.

Key Features

• 120-degree point angle for accurate center spotting before drilling
• TiN (titanium nitride) coating for improved wear resistance and tool life
• High-speed steel construction for general-purpose machining applications
• 1/2 inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard chucks and collet holders
• Two-flute spiral flute geometry promotes chip clearance during spotting
• Right-hand cut compatible with standard spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spotting drill compatible with standard 1/2 inch drill chucks, ER collet systems, and other straight-shank toolholding systems used on CNC machining centers and manual machine tools.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with cutting tool setup. Secure the shank fully in the toolholder to the recommended grip depth before running the spindle. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the control is in a safe state before changing or adjusting tooling. Do not exceed the tool material and coating limitations when selecting speeds and feeds for the workpiece material.
