Drill Bit Set GEKO G38116 – Morse Taper MK2 Metal Drills, 14.5–23 mm, 10 pcs

GEKO G38116 is a set of 10 Morse-taper (MK2) solid drill bits for metalworking, covering sizes from 14.5 mm to 23 mm. The set is designed for machines that accept MK2 taper shanks, such as drill presses and lathes, and provides large-diameter drilling capability for creating through-holes and blind holes in various metal materials. These drills are intended for workshop and industrial use when robust, stable mounting via a Morse taper is required.

Advantages

The Morse taper shanks ensure secure, concentric mounting in spindles and tailstocks that accept MK2 tapers, reducing runout and improving hole accuracy. The range of sizes from 14.5 mm to 23 mm provides flexibility for medium-to-large diameter drilling tasks without the need for step drilling. Solid construction delivers rigidity and durability during chip formation and penetration in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The set format of ten progressively sized drills simplifies tool selection and reduces downtime for size changes.

Suitable for

• Drilling medium and large diameter holes in steel and cast iron
• Creating holes in non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and bronze
• Use in lathes, drill presses, and machines with MK2 taper spindles
• Workshop and maintenance tasks requiring stable shank mounting

• Size range: 14.5 mm, incremental sizes up to 23 mm
• Intended materials: Suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Shank interface: Morse taper suitable for MT2 spindles and tailstocks

How to use

Select the appropriate drill diameter from the set and mount the drill into the machine spindle or tailstock that accepts MK2 Morse taper. Ensure the taper surfaces are clean and free from debris before insertion to achieve proper seating. Secure the workpiece and set correct spindle speed and feed rate for the material being drilled. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the metal to prolong tool life and improve chip evacuation. Withdraw the drill periodically on deep holes to clear chips and avoid excessive heat build-up.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match spindle speed and feed to the drilled material and diameter: lower speeds for harder steels and larger diameters, higher speeds for softer non-ferrous metals. Use appropriate cutting lubricants, maintain sharpness by resharpening when necessary, and store the set in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
