Titan Usa CD40229 Jobber Drill Bit No 29 Hss Black Oxide

Product Description

The TITAN USA CD40229 is a No. 29 wire-size jobber-length drill bit manufactured from high speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide coating. It features a 118-degree standard point angle and a two-flute regular spiral configuration with right-hand cutting direction. The straight-cylindrical shank measures 0.1360 inches in diameter, matching the drill bit diameter, and the overall length is 2.875 inches. The black oxide finish improves lubricity and provides mild corrosion resistance during storage and use. This bit is intended for general-purpose production drilling and is sold individually.

The CD40229 is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium in both shop and field applications. The 1.750-inch maximum drilling depth and 13xD flute-to-diameter ratio make it appropriate for through-holes and blind holes in plate, structural, and fabricated components. It is a standard addition to a drill index for machinists, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and general metalworkers who routinely work in wire-gauge drill sizes.

Key Features

• No. 29 wire size with 0.1360-inch decimal diameter and tight tolerance of -0.0007 to +0.0000 inches
• 118-degree standard point angle for general-purpose drilling across a wide range of metals
• High speed steel construction handles steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium
• Black oxide coating reduces friction and provides basic corrosion protection
• Regular spiral, two-flute design promotes chip evacuation and stable cutting
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without adapters

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 29 wire-size jobber drill bit compatible with any drill press, hand drill, or CNC drilling machine equipped with a chuck that accepts a 0.1360-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals using a keyed or keyless drill chuck. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant when drilling stainless steel, superalloys, or titanium to extend tool life, even though coolant-through is not available on this bit. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace the bit if edge integrity is compromised.
