Ø6.4 mm HSS metal drill bit – Morse taper MT1
Product description and key benefits
Choosing a Ø6.4 mm twist drill with an MT1 taper instead of a straight-shank equivalent is justified wherever the drilling machine has a tapered spindle. Seating the tool directly in the spindle simplifies the process — eliminating the chuck reduces setup operations and the risk of runout. The Ø6.4 Morse taper drill conforming to DIN 345 fits any MT1 spindle, regardless of the machine tool manufacturer.
Key benefits of the Ø6.4 mm metal drill bit
- Eliminates the drill chuck — the MT1 taper seated directly in the spindle shortens the torque transmission path and reduces radial tool runout
- Heat resistance up to 600°C — the high-speed steel cutting edge retains its working hardness even at higher cutting speeds in soft and medium-hard steels
- Interchangeability to DIN 345 — identical taper dimensions across manufacturers allow drill replacement without calibrating the spindle axis
- Short design (l1 = 144 mm) — reduced tool overhang provides greater rigidity and a better hole surface finish than extended-length drills
- Holes for locating pins and bushings — the h8 tolerance grade provides a repeatable preliminary size before finish reaming to an H7 fit
- Low operating cost — can be resharpened repeatedly on a tool grinder without losing cutting geometry while maintaining the 118° angle
The Ø6.4 Morse taper drill bit is most often selected for mounting holes in hollow sections, thick plates, and machine components. In toolrooms, it is used to prepare preliminary holes before reaming to a dowel pin fit. Holes are produced to tolerance class H12 (Ø6.400–Ø6.550 mm); if class H7 is required, additional reaming is necessary.

Drill sharpening
Sharpen the Ø6.4 mm drill bit on a tool grinder, maintaining the 118° point angle and cutting edge symmetry. Asymmetric sharpening enlarges the hole diameter and loads the spindle unevenly. Each sharpening reduces the flute length by approximately 1–2 mm.

Frequently asked questions about the Ø6.4 mm drill bit
In S235/S355 structural steels, spot drilling is not necessary — the 118° angle provides self-centering. Spot drilling with an NC 90° drill is recommended when drilling on milled surfaces, castings with machining allowance, or difficult-to-machine materials.
A cooling and lubricating emulsion at a concentration of 5–8% is recommended. For stainless steels, increase the concentration to 8–10%. Cast iron can be drilled dry with compressed air to remove chips.
The Ø6.4 mm NWKc drill bit with an MT1 taper mounts directly in the drill press spindle — the self-holding taper eliminates slipping under high cutting torque. A straight shank drill bit requires a drill chuck, which may not transmit the full torque during heavy use.
