Seco 02897990 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill 14mm 140 Degree

Product Description

The SECO 02897990 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill designed for high-performance drilling in steel and other ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features a 14 mm diameter, a 140-degree standard point angle, and an AlCrN (TiAlN) coating that extends tool life under elevated cutting temperatures. The overall length is 124 mm (approximately 4.89 inches), with a flute length of 77 mm (approximately 3.03 inches). The straight cylindrical shank matches the drill body diameter at 14 mm, making it compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders. Part of the SD1105A series, this drill is built for consistent performance in production and job-shop environments.

This drill is suited for drilling operations in steel, cast iron, hardened materials, and non-ferrous alloys, covering ISO material groups P, M, K, and H. It is intended for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual machines where a reliable, general-purpose carbide drill is needed. With a 6xD flute-to-diameter ratio and a maximum drilling depth of 60 mm (approximately 2.36 inches), it handles through-hole and blind-hole applications in both production and repair settings. Machinists and tooling specialists in metalworking, fabrication, and maintenance operations will find this drill appropriate for moderate to high-volume use.

Key Features

• 14 mm diameter solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 140-degree standard point angle for self-centering entry and reduced thrust
• AlCrN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in steel and cast iron
• Right-hand, regular spiral flute design for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet holders without modification
• 6xD flute ratio supports depths up to 60 mm without step drilling in most applications
• ANSI standard designation for consistent dimensional compliance

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting a 14 mm straight shank. Suitable for machining ISO material groups P (steel), M (stainless), K (cast iron), and H (hardened materials) as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians familiar with CNC or manual drilling equipment. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify runout before beginning a cut. This drill does not include coolant-through capability, so adequate external coolant or cutting fluid should be applied when drilling steel at depth. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the drill if damage is observed.
