Titan Usa TC20214 Drill Bit Size 14 Solid Carbide 135 Degree

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC20214 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-precision drilling in metalworking and machining applications. 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 materials. At 2 inches overall length with a 7/8-inch flute length, the stub-length profile provides added rigidity and reduced deflection in short-reach drilling setups. The bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose use across a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. This bit is sized to wire gauge Number 14, equivalent to 0.182 inches in diameter.

This drill bit is suited for production machining, job shop work, and precision drilling operations where a short, rigid tool is preferred over a jobber-length bit. The screw machine length body reduces overhang when used in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and turret lathes. Right-hand cutting direction and regular spiral fluting handle chip evacuation in standard through-hole and blind-hole drilling. It is primarily installed and used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with metal stock.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction provides high hardness and extended tool life in abrasive materials
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates center-punch requirements on most surfaces
• Screw machine length body increases rigidity and minimizes deflection compared to jobber-length bits
• Bright uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids and material types
• Right-hand cutting with regular spiral fluting for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collets without modification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use screw machine length drill bit for applications requiring wire gauge Number 14 diameter drilling within the 0.150 to 0.200 inch drill bit size range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists using standard drill chucks or collet holders rated for straight-shank tooling. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the bit. Verify chuck or collet runout is within acceptable tolerance before use, as solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to breakage under lateral load or excessive runout. Coolant-through is not supported by this tool, so apply external cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material when drilling at depth.
