Titan Usa TC20209 Size 9 Solid Carbide Drill Bit 135 Deg

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC20209 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-precision drilling in metal and hard materials. Built from solid carbide, it delivers superior hardness and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel alternatives. The 135-degree split point geometry reduces walking at entry and requires no center punch on most surfaces. At 2.5 inches overall length with a 1.125-inch flute length, this short-series bit provides rigidity and reduced deflection in drilling applications where accuracy is critical. It ships bright and uncoated, making it easy to inspect for wear. Installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals across general metalworking and fabrication environments.

The TC20209 is suited for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held drilling operations where a compact, rigid bit is needed. Wire gauge size 9 corresponds to a decimal diameter of 0.1960 inches, placing it in the 0.1500 to 0.2000 inch drill bit size range. Its straight cylindrical shank fits standard chucks without adapters. The right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral flute design handle chip evacuation efficiently in through-hole and blind-hole applications in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar materials.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates drill walk at entry
• Screw machine (stub) length provides added rigidity and reduced deflection
• Bright uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection for wear or chipping
• Right-hand regular spiral flute design for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks without additional tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitution for wire gauge size 9 solid carbide screw machine length drill bits in standard straight-shank chuck applications across CNC and manual drilling setups.

Installation Notes

Solid carbide drill bits are brittle and must be handled with care to avoid chipping the cutting edges during setup or storage. Ensure the drill chuck is clean and properly tightened before operation, and confirm the workpiece is securely fixtured to prevent movement. Use appropriate cutting speeds and feeds for carbide tooling in the workpiece material; excessive feed rates can fracture carbide bits. Replacement and setup are typically performed by a machinist or maintenance technician following standard shop safety procedures.
