Precision Twist Drill 6000127 Spotting Drill 3/8in Hss Tin

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6000127 is a single-ended spotting drill designed to accurately locate and start holes before full drilling operations. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, this tool delivers improved surface hardness and wear resistance compared to uncoated HSS. The 120-degree point angle suits a wide range of general-purpose spotting applications. With a 3/8-inch cutting diameter and an overall length of 3.125 inches, it fits standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders. Two spiral flutes provide chip clearance during the spotting cycle. Machinists, tool-and-die techs, and maintenance professionals use this drill to establish precise center points prior to twist or step drilling.

This spotting drill is suited for general-purpose metal fabrication, maintenance machining, and production environments where accurate hole location is required before follow-up drilling or reaming. The straight-cylindrical shank allows straightforward mounting in standard drill chucks and collet systems. The right-hand cutting direction is compatible with conventional spindle rotation. The TiN coating extends tool life when working in mild steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials at general-purpose cutting speeds.

Key Features

• 120-degree drill point angle for wide-application spotting and center-starting
• High-speed steel construction provides toughness across general-purpose materials
• Titanium nitride (TiN) coating increases surface hardness and reduces wear
• Two spiral flutes promote chip evacuation during spotting operations
• Straight-cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cut, single-ended design for conventional spindle use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spotting drill compatible with standard drill chucks and straight-shank collet systems; part of the SPSG-120 series.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians familiar with drill press, lathe, or CNC milling equipment. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before operation and verify runout before beginning a spotting cycle. Power down and de-energize the spindle before changing or adjusting tooling. Do not use this tool for full-depth drilling beyond the spotting application for which it is rated.
