Precision Twist Drill 6001034 Taper Shank Drill Bit

Product Description

The PRECISION TWIST DRILL 6001034 is a taper shank drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metal, steel, and similar materials. It carries a 0.748-inch (19.00 mm) cutting diameter and mounts via a No. 2 Morse Taper (2MT) shank for secure seating in compatible drill press spindles and machine tool holders. The bit is manufactured from high speed steel with an oxide finish that provides basic lubricity and corrosion resistance. Overall length is 9.1563 inches, with a 5.3125-inch spiral flute length. The 118-degree standard point with web thinning allows clean entry without excessive thrust. Right-hand cutting direction suits standard drill press and lathe tailstock setups.

This bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling applications in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial maintenance environments. The 2MT taper shank is the standard for bench and floor drill presses, lathe tailstocks, and milling machine setups in that size range. The Series 5ATS designation and DIN 345 standard compliance indicate it is built to recognized dimensional tolerances for interchangeability across machine setups. General-purpose classification makes it appropriate for ferrous metals, mild steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials at moderate cutting speeds.

Key Features

• DIN 345 standard compliance for dimensional interchangeability
• Right-hand cutting, no coolant-through requirement for general-purpose use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit taper shank drill bit for machine tools accepting a No. 2 Morse Taper (2MT) shank, consistent with DIN 345 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of taper shank drill bits should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with drill press and lathe tailstock operations. Power down and de-energize the machine spindle completely before seating or removing the taper shank. Ensure the taper socket is clean and free of chips or burrs before seating the shank to achieve full surface contact and prevent drift. Follow applicable OSHA machine guarding and PPE requirements for drilling operations.
