It measures 1-57\/64 inches (1.8906 inches decimal) in diameter and features a 4MT (Morse Taper No. 4) shank for direct mounting in compatible taper-spindle drill presses and lathes. The bit is manufactured from high-speed steel with an oxide finish for added lubricity and basic corrosion resistance. A standard 118-degree point angle makes it suitable for general-purpose drilling in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Web thinning reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation at larger diameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drill bit is suited for general-purpose production drilling in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and maintenance operations. The 4MT taper shank seats directly into drill press quills, boring mills, and lathe tailstocks equipped with a No. 4 Morse Taper socket, eliminating the need for a separate chuck. It handles materials including mild steel, cast iron, and aluminum in both one-off and repetitive drilling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-57\/64 inches (1.8906 inches) diameter for large-bore drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4MT Morse Taper shank for direct spindle mounting without a chuck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across general-purpose materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide finish for improved lubricity and mild corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e118-degree standard point angle for versatile material compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-thinned point reduces drilling thrust at large diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand spiral flute with regular helix for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in drill presses, boring mills, and lathe tailstocks fitted with a No. 4 Morse Taper (4MT) socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before inserting or removing the taper shank. Clean both the bit taper and the spindle socket thoroughly before seating to ensure full contact and prevent slippage under load. Use a drift and knockout bar to remove the bit from the spindle — never strike the spindle housing directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-57\/64 inches (1.8906 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4MT (Morse Taper No. 4)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14-1\/4 inches (14.25 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral (Regular Helix)\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\u003eWeb Thinning\u003c\/strong\u003e: Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Performance\u003c\/strong\u003e: General Purpose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241639\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01541572\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695505310002,"sku":"01541572","price":535.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f41f98100ff177e3a86e109bf20b627b_7f64eebf-c3cf-4439-a5ac-973b0e4ff298.jpg?v=1788335903","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-01541572-taper-shank-drill-bit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
