Titan Usa TC29024 3/8 Inch Solid Carbide Drill Bit Altin

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC29024 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in hard and abrasive materials. Built from solid carbide and finished with an AlTiN (Aluminum Titanium Nitride) coating, this bit handles demanding applications where standard high-speed steel bits wear prematurely. The 135-degree split point reduces walking and allows faster penetration with less thrust. At 3 inches overall length, this stub-style bit offers the rigidity needed for accurate hole placement in metalworking and machining operations. The straight cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders alike.

This bit is suited for production and job-shop environments where operators drill stainless steel, hardened steel, cast iron, titanium, and other difficult-to-machine alloys. The screw machine length format is common in machining centers, drill presses, and hand-held operations where a shorter, stiffer bit reduces deflection and improves hole accuracy. The right-hand spiral flute geometry evacuates chips efficiently during through-hole and blind-hole drilling cycles.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for superior wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials
• AlTiN coating extends tool life and performs well at elevated cutting temperatures
• 135-degree split point reduces thrust force and minimizes bit walk on entry
• Screw machine (stub) length provides added rigidity and reduced deflection
• Right-hand, 2-flute spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Straight cylindrical shank is compatible with standard chucks and collet holders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide drill bit for use in standard straight-shank drill chucks, collet systems, and CNC spindles accepting a 3/8 inch diameter straight shank.

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 selection. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before seating or removing the bit. Secure the shank firmly in the chuck or collet to the manufacturer-specified clamping depth to prevent pullout. Avoid side-loading the bit, as solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to fracture under lateral stress.
