Cleveland C12518 Taper Shank Drill Bit

This Cleveland C12518 is a high-speed steel drill bit with a 1.1250 inch fractional size and 118 degree point angle. It is designed for machinists and maintenance technicians who need a taper shank tool for general-purpose drilling in metal. The steam oxide finish helps retain cutting fluid during operation.

Morse taper installation and common issues

The taper shank seats directly into a matching Morse taper socket or sleeve without a chuck. Ensure the socket and shank are clean and free of damage for a secure friction fit. A loose or worn socket causes the bit to spin or fall out under load, while forcing a damaged shank can crack the holder.

1.1250 inch fractional diameter

The decisive specification is the 1.1250 inch (1-1/8 in.) drill bit diameter. This single size determines whether the bit matches the required hole diameter for the job. Buyers who need a different hole size must select another drill bit.
