Titan Usa CD45530 Mechanics Drill Bit 15/32 in Hss Split Point

Product Description

The TITAN USA CD45530 is a mechanics drill bit designed for precise hole drilling in metal, wood, and general-purpose materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a black oxide and gold finish, this bit delivers durability and heat resistance under sustained use. The 135-degree split point tip reduces walking and allows the bit to start cutting on contact without a center punch. At 4.75 inches overall length with a 15/32-inch diameter, it is suited for production drilling, maintenance work, and repair applications. Right-hand spiral flutes evacuate chips efficiently during operation. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this bit.

This drill bit fits standard drill chucks that accept a 15/32-inch straight-cylindrical shank. It is well suited for use in stationary drill presses, handheld electric drills, and magnetic drill setups where a consistent, burr-free entry hole is required. Series 455 identifies the product family within the TITAN USA line. Typical applications include drilling bolt-clearance holes, access holes, and fastener holes in light-gauge metal and structural components encountered in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades.

Key Features

• 135-degree split point tip starts on contact, reducing bit walking without a center punch
• High-speed steel construction provides hardness and heat resistance for metal drilling
• Black oxide and gold finish extends surface life and reduces friction
• Right-hand spiral flutes clear chips continuously during the cut
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard 3-jaw drill chucks without adapters
• No coolant-through requirement simplifies use in field and shop environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style mechanics drill bit for use in any standard drill chuck accepting a 15/32-inch straight-cylindrical shank, including handheld drills and benchtop drill presses.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by a mechanic, technician, or tradesperson in any drill with a compatible chuck capacity. Secure the shank fully in the chuck and verify the bit runs true before applying feed pressure. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling ferrous metals to extend bit life and improve hole quality. Wear eye protection and secure the workpiece before drilling.
