Dewalt DW1320 Titanium Drill Bit 5/16 in Split Point

Product Description

The DEWALT DW1320 is a 5/16-inch titanium-coated twist drill bit engineered for drilling through metal. The split point tip reduces walking on contact, allowing the bit to start cleanly without a center punch on most metal surfaces. The titanium nitride coating extends surface hardness, which helps the cutting edge stay sharp through repeated use in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other common metals encountered in trade work. This bit is sold individually and is a standard addition to a service technician's or installer's drill kit where precision metal penetration is required.

This bit is suited for residential and light commercial applications where tradespeople need to drill through metal framing, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, plumbing brackets, or similar structural metal components. It is appropriate for use by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors working with hand drills or drill presses on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Key Features

• 5/16-inch diameter titanium nitride-coated bit for metal drilling
• Split point tip reduces bit walking and improves hole placement accuracy
• Titanium coating increases surface hardness for extended edge life
• Compatible with standard 3-jaw drill chucks on corded and cordless drills
• Sold individually — unit of measure is each

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-inch twist drill bit compatible with corded and cordless drills equipped with a 3-jaw chuck sized to accept round-shank bits up to 5/16 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors during equipment mounting or panel work. Secure the bit firmly in the drill chuck before use and confirm the workpiece is clamped or otherwise stabilized. Always wear appropriate eye protection when drilling metal, as chips and fragments are a hazard. Reduce feed pressure near breakthrough to prevent the bit from grabbing and to maintain hole quality.
