Finished with a TiAlCr\/TiSi coating, this bit resists heat and wear during extended cutting cycles. It features a 135-degree drill point angle and a tapered web configuration that promotes self-centering and reduces thrust when starting holes. With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter and an overall length of 5.3937 inches, the U101185 is built for precision-critical through-hole and blind-hole work in production and MRO environments. Licensed machinists and toolroom techs are the primary installers of this bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is rated for use in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and general steel workpieces, covering ISO material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. The mechanics-length body keeps the bit rigid and reduces deflection in applications where hole straightness and positional accuracy are required. It is a single-piece unit suited for CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual drilling operations where a 0.5156 inch shank diameter is compatible with the spindle or chuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for maximum rigidity and tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlCr\/TiSi coating provides high-temperature resistance and extended wear life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e135-degree split point angle for accurate self-centering and reduced walking on entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered web configuration reduces cutting force and heat buildup at the tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMechanics length body minimizes deflection and improves hole straightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with cast iron, stainless steel, steel, and non-ferrous metal workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for primary workpiece materials including cast iron, non-ferrous metal, stainless steel, and steel (ISO material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S).

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before installing or removing the bit. Solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to chipping from shock loads or excessive runout — verify chuck or collet concentricity before operation. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; apply external coolant or cutting fluid as appropriate for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch \/ 12.70 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlCr\/TiSi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: MDW-GS4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.3937 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0709 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5156 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SUMITOMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: U101185\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731580977458,"sku":"U101185","price":411.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9738e566e86807e117824fa9307a9df9.jpg?v=1788732767","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-u101185-mechanics-drill-bit-1-2-in-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
