Titan Usa TC19240 Solid Carbide Jobber Drill No. 40

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC19240 is a solid carbide jobber-length drill bit in wire gauge size No. 40, with a decimal diameter of 0.0980 inches. It features a standard 118-degree split-point angle and a bright, uncoated finish. The two-flute, right-hand spiral design provides clean chip evacuation during through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations. At 2.0 inches overall length with a 1.0-inch flute length, this bit is sized for precision work in tight setups. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly in standard drill chucks or collet holders without modification. It is part of TITAN USA's TC19 series, built for general-purpose drilling in production and maintenance environments.

The TC19240 is designed for drilling aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials where carbide tooling outperforms high-speed steel in tool life and hole quality. Typical applications include sheet metal fabrication, electrical panel work, HVAC equipment manufacturing, and light machining operations requiring consistent hole geometry at the No. 40 wire gauge diameter. This bit suits CNC drill presses, benchtop drill presses, and hand-held power drills where a precision carbide tool is required. It is sold individually and is a direct drop-in for standard toolholders accepting a 0.0980-inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

This drill bit is installed by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians using standard drill press or CNC equipment. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling to prevent bit deflection or breakage, particularly important with small-diameter carbide tooling. Carbide bits are brittle and should not be used in applications with lateral loading or flexing. Always power down and de-energize any machine before changing tooling.
