With a 90-degree point angle and a 0.625-inch cutting diameter, this tool creates precise, burr-free spot indentations that guide twist drills and prevent walking on flat or curved workpiece surfaces. The overall length is 3 inches, with a 1.25-inch flute length and a 0.625-inch straight cylindrical shank. Two spiral flutes clear chips efficiently during short-engagement spotting passes. Machining professionals and tool-and-die shops use this drill for general-purpose spotting on a wide range of materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spotting drill fits standard drill chucks and collet holders with a 0.625-inch bore. It is suited for use on CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses in production and job-shop environments. The bright uncoated finish makes it a straightforward general-purpose option for spotting operations where coated tooling is not required. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional spindle rotation. The tool is part of TITAN USA Series 187.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree point angle for accurate hole location and drill guidance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.625-inch cutting diameter with matching 0.625-inch straight cylindrical shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance compared to HSS alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo spiral flutes for chip evacuation during spotting passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — ready to use for general-purpose spotting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, single-ended design compatible with standard CNC and manual setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose spotting drill for use in standard 0.625-inch drill chucks, ER collet systems, and hydraulic toolholders on CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this tool should be performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is properly secured before inserting or removing the drill. Verify runout with a dial indicator after chucking to maximize tool life and hole location accuracy. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate when spotting with solid carbide tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spotting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 187\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.54 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TITAN USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TC18740\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TITAN USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51753112273202,"sku":"TC18740","price":228.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ffc2ae0264833bae67ce83ca6c543d48.jpg?v=1788932904","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/titan-usa-tc18740-spotting-drill-5-8in-90deg-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
