Value Collection 262030 Solid Carbide Core Drill 15/16 in 3MT

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 262030 is a solid carbide core drill designed for precision holemaking in metalworking applications. It features a 15/16 inch diameter cutting edge with a 118-degree included angle and a bright finish. The 3MT (Morse Taper) shank provides secure, positive engagement in compatible machine spindles. With a 9-1/2 inch overall length and a 4-7/8 inch flute length, this drill is suited for deeper bore work where rigidity and chip evacuation both matter. It is installed by machinists, tool and die workers, and maintenance technicians working on drill presses, milling machines, or lathes equipped with a No. 3 Morse Taper spindle.

This core drill is intended for metalworking and multipurpose drilling operations in production and job-shop environments. It falls within the Series 2620 lineup and is appropriate for applications requiring an enlarged or finished bore rather than a primary hole from solid. It performs best when a pilot or starting hole of at least 0.656 inches is present. Right-hand spiral and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard machine rotation. Both light manufacturing facilities and heavy maintenance shops use this type of drill for sizing and finishing bored holes.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in metal drilling
• 15/16 inch (0.9375 inch) cutting diameter with a drill size tolerance of 0.0000 to -0.0010 inches
• 3MT Morse Taper shank for direct spindle mounting without a chuck
• 118-degree included angle for standard metalworking entry geometry
• Four-flute design with 4-7/8 inch flute length supports chip clearance in deeper bores
• Bright finish, right-hand cut, right-hand spiral

Compatibility

Designed for use in drill presses, milling machines, or lathes equipped with a No. 3 Morse Taper spindle socket. Requires a minimum starting hole diameter of 0.656 inches. Suitable for general metalworking and multipurpose drilling applications as part of the Series 2620 core drill line.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or qualified maintenance technician. Before mounting, ensure the machine spindle and taper shank are clean and free of chips or burrs to achieve full taper seating. Power down and de-energize the machine before inserting or removing the drill. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for speed and feed selection when drilling ferrous or non-ferrous metals.
