Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit handles ferrous and non-ferrous materials with consistent performance. It carries a 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inch decimal) cutting diameter, a Morse Taper 1 (1MT) shank for positive spindle engagement, and a 118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for easier penetration on center. Overall length is 7.5 inches, making it compatible with standard drill press and lathe setups. Licensed machinists and trades professionals typically install and operate this tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is suited for drilling operations on drill presses, lathes, and milling machines equipped with a Morse Taper 1 spindle or adapter. It is appropriate for general-purpose applications in manufacturing, fabrication, and maintenance environments. The 4.125-inch flute length accommodates moderate-depth drilling without the need for specialized extended-reach tooling. Right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral flutes support standard chip evacuation in most common workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15\/32 inch (0.4688 inch) cutting diameter for precision hole sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMorse Taper 1 (1MT) shank provides secure, self-holding spindle engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle with web thinning for reduced thrust and easier starting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction with oxide finish for wear resistance and corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flutes, 4.125 inches long, for effective chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards — Series 209\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drill presses, lathes, and milling machines equipped with a Morse Taper 1 (1MT) spindle socket or compatible taper adapter sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists or trained trade professionals. Before mounting or removing the bit, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out per applicable safety procedures. Insert the 1MT taper shank fully into a clean, dry spindle socket and seat it firmly with a drift or draw bar as the machine design requires. Inspect flutes and the cutting edge for wear or damage before each use; a damaged or dull bit should not be forced into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15\/32 inch (0.4688 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1MT (Morse Taper 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard with web thinning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High speed steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: General purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 209\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRECISION TWIST DRILL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6001046\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION TWIST DRILL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721518743858,"sku":"6001046","price":56.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/91f3c7609b9c9ca5a8425dc07c240c2d_e95adc17-abd2-41b5-9b3c-5d43756a0fe7.jpg?v=1788578465","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-twist-drill-6001046-taper-shank-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
