Taper Shank Drill for #5 Morse Taper
This taper-shank drill bit fits a #5 Morse taper holder and is made from high-speed steel with a black oxide finish. It is intended for machine-shop and maintenance crews who need a large-diameter cutting tool for general-purpose drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Conventional 118-degree point geometry
The 118-degree point angle provides reliable centering and chip evacuation in normal drilling operations. Black oxide coating reduces friction and resists corrosion during extended use. Heat generated in the cut is managed by the high-speed steel substrate and standard cutting-fluid practices. Noise and power draw follow the machine tool and feed rate selected by the operator.

Questions about this item
How do I install the #5MT taper shank drill bit 53208 into my machine spindle, and what step do people often miss?
Clean the #5MT taper and spindle bore thoroughly, insert the 1 11/16 in drill bit, then seat it with a firm mallet tap on the tang; the step many skip is removing all oil or debris so the Morse taper locks securely.
What maintenance will the high speed steel drill bit 53208 need later, and when should I replace it?
Resharpen the 118 degree conventional point when cutting slows or chips turn blue; replace the black oxide drill bit once the flutes wear past the web or the 1 11/16 in diameter no longer meets tolerance.
