Titan Usa TC19238 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill No 38

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC19238 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit in No. 38 wire size, measuring 0.1015 inches in diameter. It features a standard 118-degree split point, a bright uncoated finish, and a regular spiral flute with right-hand cutting direction. The overall length is 2.25 inches, with a flute length of 1.25 inches. Designed for general-purpose drilling in production and maintenance environments, this bit is suited for machinists, tool and die shops, and fabrication professionals who need consistent, repeatable hole quality in non-ferrous and light-alloy materials.

The TC19238 is rated primarily for aluminum and non-ferrous workpiece materials, matching ISO material group codes P, M, K, N, and S. It performs well in benchtop drill presses, CNC machining centers, and hand-held pneumatic or electric drills where a small-diameter, rigid bit is required. The 12xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides good chip evacuation in shallow-to-moderate depth holes. It is sold individually and is appropriate for general production drilling, fixture work, and prototype machining operations.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction delivers greater rigidity and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel in non-ferrous applications
• 118-degree standard point angle suits general-purpose drilling without requiring a pilot hole in most setups
• Bright uncoated finish maintains sharp edge geometry and works without added coating cost for aluminum and non-ferrous materials
• Right-hand, regular spiral flute promotes efficient chip removal at typical feed and speed ranges for small-diameter bits
• Straight cylindrical shank with zero flats fits standard drill chucks without adapters
• Diameter tolerance of -0.0005 to +0.0000 inches ensures hole size accuracy within tight general-purpose requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct procurement option for any application requiring a No. 38 wire-gauge drill bit with a 0.1015-inch diameter, 118-degree point, and straight shank in solid carbide construction. Compatible with standard drill chucks accepting a 0.1015-inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a keyed or keyless drill chuck rated for the shank diameter. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the bit. Secure the shank fully into the chuck jaws with no less than the full shank engagement depth to prevent runout. Do not use this bit on hardened steel or cast iron, as solid carbide in this geometry is optimized for non-ferrous and similar materials.
