Titan Usa TC20002 Screw Machine Drill Bit 1/32 in Carbide

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC20002 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for precision drilling in tight-clearance applications where a standard-length bit cannot be used. Built from solid carbide, it delivers superior hardness and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel, making it well suited for drilling hard metals, stainless steel, cast iron, and abrasive materials. The bit measures 0.0313 inches (1/32 inch) in diameter with a 1-1/2 inch overall length and features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking and requires no center punch on most surfaces. The bright, uncoated finish allows the carbide substrate to perform without added coating variables.

This bit is used in screw machine operations, CNC machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held precision drilling applications where short flute length and rigid bit geometry reduce deflection. The 3/8 inch flute length and straight cylindrical shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders. Typical applications include production drilling of small-diameter holes in metal fabrication, aerospace component work, and general machining environments requiring tight dimensional tolerances.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust and eliminates center-punch requirement on most work surfaces
• Screw machine length body provides added rigidity and reduced deflection versus jobber-length bits
• Right-hand cutting, regular spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collet systems without modification
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating variability affecting hole tolerance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use screw machine drill bit for standard 1/32 inch diameter drilling applications in machining and production environments.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of carbide drill bits should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with cutting tool setup and speeds and feeds for carbide tooling. Secure the workpiece and confirm the drill chuck or collet is properly tightened before operation. Carbide is brittle — avoid side loading, interrupted cuts at high feed rates, or dropping the bit, as chipping or fracture can result. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate appropriate to the workpiece material and bit diameter.
