Titan Usa TC20253 Drill Bit Size 53 Solid Carbide 135 Deg

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC20253 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for precision drilling in tight-access and high-production applications. Built from solid carbide, it delivers superior hardness and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel alternatives. The bit features a 135-degree split point that reduces walking on entry and requires no center punch on most workpieces. At 1.5 inches overall length, this stub-length geometry provides added rigidity, which minimizes deflection and breakage when drilling small-diameter holes. The 0.0595 inch (wire gauge size 53) cutting diameter makes it suited for fine-diameter work where precision and repeatability are critical. Licensed tradespeople and machinist-level technicians are the primary users of this tool.

This drill bit is appropriate for drilling metals, plastics, composites, and other materials in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair environments. Its screw machine length profile fits standard drill chucks and CNC machining centers without extension. The straight cylindrical shank provides positive chuck engagement on both keyed and keyless chucks. It is a strong fit for repetitive production drilling where hole location tolerance and finish quality matter. The bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose drilling where coating compatibility with cutting fluids or workpiece materials is a consideration.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for maximum hardness and extended tool life in abrasive or hard materials
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates the need for center punching on most surfaces
• Screw machine (stub) length at 1.5 inches OAL provides rigidity and reduces deflection in small-diameter holes
• Right-hand cutting direction with regular spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders without adapters
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for use with a wide range of cutting fluids

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose screw machine length drill bit compatible with any drill press, hand drill, or CNC machining center fitted with a standard chuck accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.0595 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by a machinist or maintenance technician into a keyed or keyless drill chuck or CNC collet holder. Ensure the machine is powered down and the chuck is fully secured before beginning any drilling operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to maximize tool life, particularly when drilling metals. Solid carbide tooling is brittle and susceptible to breakage from side loading or flexing, so do not use in applications where the bit may be subjected to lateral force.
