Walter-titex 5057075 Screw Machine Drill Bit 0.116 in

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5057075 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. Built from cobalt and vanadium high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, this bit handles cast iron, stainless steel, hardened materials, non-ferrous metals, and general steel. It features a 130-degree split point for accurate entry without walking, a parabolic flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation, and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces cutting force. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks. Part of the Series A1148, this bit is rated for universal tool performance across a broad range of applications.

This drill bit is sized at 0.116 inches (Wire Size #32) and is suited for production drilling, maintenance, and fabrication environments where short-length bits are preferred for rigidity and control. The screw machine length format reduces deflection in turret lathes, CNC drill presses, and hand-held operations on tight-tolerance work. Its parabolic flute with a 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio and right-hand cut makes it well suited for interrupted cuts and gummy or abrasive workpiece materials including stainless steel and cast iron.

Key Features

• Cobalt and vanadium high speed steel construction for heat and wear resistance in tough materials
• 130-degree split point for self-centering entry and reduced thrust
• Parabolic flute design promotes fast chip clearing and reduces clogging
• Web-thinned tapered web lowers cutting force and improves penetration
• Screw machine length body provides added rigidity over jobber-length bits
• Meets DIN, ISO, and BS standards for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use screw machine length drill bit for applications requiring a 0.116 inch diameter, Wire Size #32 bit in cobalt high speed steel. Compatible with standard straight-shank drill chucks on drill presses, CNC machines, and turret lathes.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with metal-cutting tool procedures. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully into the chuck before operation and verify runout is within acceptable tolerance. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing bits. Do not exceed the rated maximum drilling depth of 0.400 inches per pass without retracting to clear chips.
