Tork Craft Drill Bit — HSS Morse Taper 17.5 mm × MT2
High-performance 17.5 mm high-speed steel (HSS) twist drill bit with a Morse Taper 2 (MT2) shank. Designed for secure taper mounting in machine spindles and suitable for precise drilling in metals, cast iron, aluminium and plastics in industrial environments.
Features
- 17.5 mm cutting diameter.
- Morse Taper 2 (MT2) shank — mounts directly into MT2 taper sockets.
- HSS construction for strength, accuracy and wear resistance.
- Precision twist flutes for efficient chip removal and reduced friction.
- Supplied singly (1 bit per card).
Benefits
- Direct taper fit: no adapter required for MT2-compatible equipment.
- Robust performance: built for demanding drilling tasks in metals and alloys.
- Precision: taper mounting helps reduce run-out and produce cleaner holes.
Extra Information
- Use cutting fluid when drilling harder metals to reduce heat and prolong tool life.
- Adjust spindle speed depending on material — slower for steel, faster for aluminium or plastics.
- Ensure the taper surfaces (bit and socket) are clean before mounting for accurate seating.
Pro Tip
- Always wipe the taper surfaces clean of chips and oil before insertion to prevent slippage or misalignment.
- On deeper holes, periodically retract the bit to clear chips and maintain cooler cutting.
