Titan Usa CD50314 Cobalt Jobber Drill Bit Letter O

Product Description

The TITAN USA CD50314 is a cobalt jobber-length drill bit sized to letter O (0.3020 inches) with a 135-degree split point and oxide/gold coating. It is designed for drilling into hard, abrasion-resistant materials where standard high-speed steel bits lose their edge quickly. The two-flute, right-hand spiral design with a straight-cylindrical shank makes it compatible with standard drill chucks and CNC setups. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking tradespeople reach for cobalt bits when cutting stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium. The split point reduces walking on entry without a center punch, keeping hole placement accurate on hard surfaces.

This bit is suited for production drilling and maintenance repair operations in industrial, aerospace, and mechanical service environments. Its 10xD flute-to-diameter ratio and 3-1/16-inch flute length support deeper bore passes with consistent chip evacuation. Primary workpiece materials include stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium. The CD50 series is positioned as a workhorse jobber bit where heat resistance and edge retention are the priority over high-cycle interrupted cuts.

Key Features

• Letter O size — 0.3020-inch diameter for precise fractional sizing in metalwork applications
• 135-degree split point reduces entry walking and allows drilling without a center punch
• Cobalt steel construction with oxide/gold coating for heat resistance in hard-metal drilling
• Right-hand, regular spiral flute design promotes efficient chip removal in deep passes
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard three-jaw chucks and collets without adapters
• Maximum drilling depth of 3-1/16 inches supports through-hole work in typical stock thicknesses

Compatibility

Designed as a straight-shank jobber drill bit for use in any standard drill press, hand drill, or CNC machine accepting a 0.3020-inch straight-cylindrical shank. Optimized for stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpieces per series CD50 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using standard drill press or CNC equipment. Secure the shank fully in the chuck before operation and confirm chuck key is removed before power is applied. Use appropriate cutting fluid when drilling stainless steel or titanium to manage heat buildup and extend edge life. Inspect the split point for chipping before each use, particularly after hard-material applications.
