Chicago-Latrobe 78483 solid carbide spade drill
This 3/32 inch solid carbide spade drill handles general-purpose drilling in a range of materials. The bright uncoated finish and 118-degree point angle suit both machine and hand-held use. It is aimed at maintenance technicians and metalworking shops that need a durable, small-diameter cutting tool.
Check shank fit and machine speed before ordering
Verify that your drill chuck or collet accepts the 3/32 inch shank without an adapter. Confirm the spindle speed range matches carbide tooling recommendations for your workpiece material. Ensure coolant or lubrication provision is adequate for the uncoated cutting edges.
Bright finish and 118-degree point for daily use
The uncoated bright surface reduces material adhesion during shallow-hole drilling. Solid carbide construction resists wear longer than high-speed steel in abrasive alloys. The standard 118-degree point centres quickly without a pilot hole, simplifying setup on repeat jobs.
