Walter-titex 5057106 Screw Machine Drill Bit 0.04 in

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5057106 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in demanding trade and industrial applications. Built from cobalt and vanadium high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this bit delivers the heat and wear resistance needed when working through hard materials. It features a 130-degree split point for self-centering starts, a parabolic flute design for efficient chip evacuation, and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that reduces thrust and extends tool life. At 0.04 inches in diameter (wire size 60), this is a precision small-diameter bit suited for machinists, tool and die work, and specialty fabrication.

This bit is rated for use across a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, hard materials, and non-ferrous metals, making it a versatile choice in production and repair environments. The screw machine length body keeps the bit rigid in short-reach applications such as drill press work, CNC setups, and turret lathe operations where minimal runout and maximum rigidity are required. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard chucks without adapters.

Key Features

• Cobalt and vanadium high speed steel construction for elevated heat resistance and edge retention
• 130-degree split point with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced entry thrust and self-centering starts
• Parabolic flute geometry promotes fast chip evacuation and reduces clogging in deep holes
• Screw machine length body provides rigid, low-runout performance in close-clearance setups
• Rated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, hard materials, and non-ferrous metals
• Meets DIN, ISO, and BS standards; classified as high-performance grade

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard addition to any chuck accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in screw machine length drill applications across Series A1148 tooling setups.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by machinists and tooling professionals in drill presses, CNC machining centers, and turret lathes. Always secure the straight-cylindrical shank fully in the chuck and verify runout before drilling. Ensure the workpiece is firmly fixtured before starting the cut. Do not exceed the recommended flute length drilling depth of 0.2360 inches without retracting to clear chips.
