Ø18.5 mm HSS metal drill bit – Morse taper MT2

Product description and key benefits

The Ø18.5 mm twist drill with an MT2 shank offers a significant advantage over straight-shank drills: mounting stability increases with load. The self-holding Morse taper seats deeper in the spindle in proportion to the cutting torque. At a diameter of 18.5 mm, the Ø18.5 Morse taper drill provides vibration-free operation and uniform cutting edge wear even during intensive use.

Key benefits of the Ø18.5 mm metal drill bit

  • Morse taper MT2 — self-holding mounting in the spindle eliminates slipping under full cutting torque
  • HSS high-speed steel — the cutting edge retains its working hardness up to 600°C in structural and low-alloy steels
  • Full compliance with DIN 345 — ensures interchangeability and compatibility with reduction sleeves and Morse taper spindles
  • 118° point angle — versatile cutting geometry performs well in structural and medium-hard steels, cast iron, and aluminum
  • Diameter tolerance h8 — repeatable hole size within a tolerance class that ensures consistent parameters in series production
  • Resharpenable cutting edges — repeated sharpening on a grinder while maintaining the 118° angle and cutting edge symmetry

The Ø18.5 mm Morse taper drill is chosen for holes for bolted joints in machine components and steel structures. Maintenance departments use it to restore worn holes and drill new ones during assembly. Holes within tolerance class H12 (Ø18.500–Ø18.710 mm); tighter fits are achieved with a reamer.

Coolant selection when drilling diameters of 18.5

At a diameter of 18.5 mm, the volume of chips removed increases significantly — the helical flutes must evacuate more material per centimeter of depth. Use an emulsion with a concentration of 6–8% at a minimum delivery rate of 3 l/min. Without pressurized cooling, limit the depth of each pass to 55 mm.

Material compatibility of the Ø18.5 mm drill bit

Range of workpiece materials and application limitations

✓ Structural steel (S235, S355) up to 900 N/mm²
✓ Gray and ductile cast iron (GG20, GGG40)
✓ Low-carbon and medium-alloy steel
▲ Stainless steel (Vc reduced by 40%, ample coolant)
▲ Aluminum and Al alloys (emulsion coolant required)
✗ Hardened steels above 45 HRC

Frequently asked questions about the Ø18.5 mm drill bit

A pillar or box-column drilling machine with an MT2 spindle and a minimum power rating of 0.75–1.5 kW. Bench drilling machines with a drill chuck are not recommended — they cannot transmit the torque generated at a diameter of 18.5 mm.

It depends on the specific bolted joint. For metric coarse-thread bolts, the clearance hole diameter according to ISO 273 is 0.5–1 mm larger than the nominal thread diameter.

Use cooling with a 5–8% emulsion, do not exceed the recommended cutting parameters, and resharpen the tool before it becomes completely dull. Clean taper and spindle socket surfaces reduce runout — the main cause of accelerated wear.
