Questions about this item

How does the 118° point angle perform in a real machine?

The 118° conventional point is a general-purpose geometry that centres reliably in steel and cast iron on a drill press or lathe without walking.

What does the Morse taper shank standard cap in practice?

The Morse taper shank self-holds in a matching machine spindle, transmitting torque by friction so the bit will not spin loose under heavy feed pressure.
