Walter-titex 5058522 Jobber Drill Bit 1.6mm Hss

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5058522 is a jobber length twist drill bit designed for general-purpose drilling in metalworking applications. Built from high speed steel with an oxide coating, this bit measures 1.6 mm (0.0630 inches) in diameter with an overall length of 1-11/16 inches (43.00 mm). The 118-degree standard point angle and web-thinned, tapered web geometry reduce entry force and improve chip evacuation. With a regular spiral flute and straight-cylindrical shank, it mounts directly in standard drill chucks without adapters. Licensed HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and sheet metal workers keep bits like this stocked for everyday hole-making tasks on ferrous and cast materials.

This bit is rated for drilling into cast iron and steel, making it suitable for residential and light commercial trade work where consistent, repeatable hole quality is required. Typical applications include blind hole drilling and stack drilling setups. The Series A1211 designation identifies it within the WALTER-TITEX metric jobber line. The 8xD flute-to-diameter ratio provides adequate chip clearance in moderate-depth cuts, and the maximum drilling depth is 0.6690 inches (17.00 mm). This bit is sold individually and carries ANSI and ISO standards compliance along with BS and DIN specification designations.

Key Features

• 1.6 mm (0.0630 inch) diameter with h8 diameter tolerance for consistent fit

• High speed steel construction with oxide finish for basic wear resistance
• Regular spiral flute, right-hand cut, optimized for cast iron and steel workpieces
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks
• Meets ANSI, ISO, BS, and DIN standards; rated for blind hole and stack drilling

Compatibility

Designed for use in cast iron and steel workpieces. Suitable for blind hole drilling and stack drilling applications where a standard jobber length HSS bit with a straight-cylindrical shank is specified.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by trades using standard corded or cordless drills and drill presses fitted with a keyed or keyless chuck sized for the 0.0630-inch shank. Secure the workpiece before drilling and ensure the chuck is fully tightened. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; use appropriate cutting fluid applied externally when drilling steel to extend tool life. Inspect the cutting edges before use and discard bits showing chipping or excessive wear.
