Tork Craft Drill Bit — HSS Morse Taper 16.5 mm × MT2
Heavy-duty 16.5 mm high-speed steel (HSS) twist drill bit featuring a Morse Taper 2 (MT2) shank. Engineered for direct mounting in MT2 taper sockets and ideal for precision work in metals, aluminium, plastics and general fabrication.
Extra Information
- Use cutting fluid when drilling metals to reduce friction and increase tool life.
 - Select appropriate spindle speed depending on material hardness.
 - Ensure taper and socket surfaces are clean before mounting to ensure tight fit.
 
Pro Tip
- Wipe the bit’s taper and socket clean before use — debris can compromise seating and accuracy.
 - On deeper holes, periodically retract to break chips and mitigate heat buildup.
 
Features
- 16.5 mm cutting diameter for larger bore requirements.
 - Morse Taper 2 (MT2) shank for secure taper-mounting.
 - HSS construction delivers durability, toughness and precision.
 - Optimized twist flutes for effective chip ejection and cooler cutting.
 - Packaged singly (1 bit / card).
 
Benefits
- Direct taper use: no adapter needed — fits into MT2 systems.
 - Reliability under load: holds up in heavy machining conditions.
 - Precision performance: taper mounting reduces run-out and improves hole quality.
 
Safety
- Wear eye protection when drilling.
 - Clamp and secure the workpiece firmly.
 - Use steady feed—do not force the bit into material.
 - Check taper seating before applying full load to ensure safe and accurate operation.
