Titan Usa CD30323 Drill Bit Letter W 135 Point Hss

Product Description

The TITAN USA CD30323 is a screw machine length drill bit sized to Letter W (0.386 inches decimal), designed for heavy-duty metal drilling in production and maintenance environments. Built from high speed steel with a black oxide coating, it resists heat and wear during repeated use. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking on entry and lowers feed pressure, making it well suited for hand-held drilling or drill press work on steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. At 3.25 inches overall length, the screw machine format fits tightly in chucks where a jobber-length bit would interfere with fixtures or workholding.

This bit is a standard choice for HVAC sheet metal fabrication, plumbing rough-in, electrical panel work, and general mechanical assembly where a Letter W hole diameter is required. The straight cylindrical shank seats in standard 3-jaw chucks without adapters. Two spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently, keeping the cutting edge clear during deep passes. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both shop and field use wherever a compact, heavy-duty drill bit is needed.

Key Features

• Letter W size — 0.386 inches decimal diameter, within the 0.350 to 0.400 inch range
• 135-degree split point reduces entry walking and lowers required feed force
• High speed steel construction rated for heavy-duty drilling applications
• Black oxide coating improves heat resistance and reduces friction at the cutting edge
• Screw machine length (3.25 inches OAL) fits confined spaces and short-reach setups
• Two spiral flutes with 1.875 inch flute length promote efficient chip evacuation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard screw machine length drill bit for use in any 3-jaw chuck or drill press accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the Letter W diameter range.

Installation Notes

A licensed or qualified trade professional should select the appropriate cutting speed and feed rate for the workpiece material before use. Secure the workpiece and ensure the bit is fully seated and tightened in the chuck before starting the drill. Use cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend tool life and reduce heat buildup. Inspect the cutting edges before each use and replace the bit if chipping or dullness is present.
