Value Collection 1944296001400Z4 Spotting Drill Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1944296001400Z4 is a single-ended spotting drill designed to create accurate center marks and guide holes before drilling operations. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it features a 120-degree point angle suited for general-purpose spotting across a wide range of workpiece materials. The 0.25 inch cutting diameter and straight cylindrical shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks. With a 4 inch overall length and a 0.75 inch spiral flute section, this tool delivers controlled chip evacuation during light-duty spot drilling tasks. It is typically installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with metal or composite stock.

This spotting drill is used in general-purpose machining environments including job shops, maintenance facilities, and light manufacturing settings. It is suited for operations where hole location accuracy is critical before full-depth drilling. The right-hand cutting direction is compatible with standard drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held power drills with appropriate fixturing. Single-ended construction means the tool is replaced rather than reversed when the tip wears.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians. Secure the straight shank firmly in the drill chuck or collet before operation and verify runout before starting the spindle. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life. Follow standard shop safety practices including eye protection and workpiece fixturing before beginning any drilling operation.
