Built to Series 1545 standards, it features a 90-degree point angle and a 0.5000-inch cutting diameter, making it well-suited for general-purpose spotting operations in metal fabrication and machining environments. The bright, uncoated carbide construction provides consistent performance across a range of workpiece materials. With an overall length of 3 inches and a 1.2500-inch flute length, it fits standard toolholders used in CNC machining centers and manual drill presses alike. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spotting drill is used in both production shop and job-shop environments where hole location accuracy is critical before full-diameter drilling. The 90-degree included point angle is the most common standard for spotting operations, compatible with typical drill point geometries used in general metalworking. Its 0.5000-inch straight cylindrical shank fits conventional collet chucks and Weldon-style holders in that shank size. The two-flute spiral design clears chips effectively during short spotting passes on steel, aluminum, cast iron, and similar machinable materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e90-degree point angle for standard general-purpose spotting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers hardness and wear resistance beyond high-speed steel alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of workpiece materials without coating interference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute spiral geometry for efficient chip evacuation during spotting passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5000-inch straight cylindrical shank for secure seating in collet chucks and toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-ended design with 1.2500-inch flute length and 3-inch overall length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose spotting drill for use in CNC machining centers and manual drill presses accepting a 0.5000-inch straight cylindrical shank; no specific machine model compatibility was provided by the manufacturer for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolholding procedures for the machine in use. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Confirm shank seating depth and runout with a dial indicator before beginning a spotting operation. Follow the machine manufacturer's recommended speeds and feeds for solid carbide tooling in the workpiece material being machined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 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: 3.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1545\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15477\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711077908786,"sku":"15477","price":407.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7d82d5c24bf7b9da65775b828b925609.jpg?v=1788474170","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-15477-spotting-drill-1-2-in-90-deg-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
