Walter-titex 5060531 Cobalt Drill Bit 11/32 in 130 Deg

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5060531 is a cobalt jobber length drill bit designed for high-performance metal drilling in demanding trade and industrial applications. Built to Series A1247 standards, it features an 11/32 inch (0.3438 inch decimal) diameter, a 130-degree split point for positive engagement and reduced walking, and a parabolic flute geometry that improves chip evacuation in deep-hole applications. The oxide coating adds surface hardness and heat resistance. With an overall length of 4-29/32 inches and a flute length of 3-3/16 inches, this bit handles drilling depths up to 2.598 inches. It is specified to ANSI and ISO standards and carries a BS and DIN specification designation.

This drill bit is suited for right-hand cutting in cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, carbon and alloy steel, superalloys, and titanium. The parabolic flute with an 8xD flute-to-diameter ratio makes it effective for blind hole drilling and stack drilling operations. The straight-cylindrical shank with an 11/32 inch shank diameter seats securely in standard drill chucks and CNC toolholders. It is a strong choice for machinists, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and sheet metal workers who regularly drill hard or abrasive materials.

Key Features

• Cobalt construction with oxide coating for heat resistance and extended tool life in hard metals
• 130-degree split point reduces thrust force and eliminates center-punch requirements on most metals
• Parabolic flute geometry with web thinning improves chip flow and reduces heat buildup
• 8xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports blind hole and stack drilling applications
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and CNC tooling without adapters
• Meets ANSI and ISO standards with BS and DIN specification designations

Compatibility

Designed for drilling cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel, superalloys, and titanium. Compatible with any drill chuck or CNC toolholder accepting an 11/32 inch straight-cylindrical shank. Suited for both blind hole and stack drilling setups.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified machinists or trade professionals familiar with metal-cutting drill bit operation. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or toolholder and verify runout before drilling. Always power down and de-energize the machine before changing tooling. Do not exceed the recommended maximum drilling depth of 2.598 inches for this bit size.
