Walter-titex 5062895 Cobalt Micro Drill Bit Wire 73 118deg

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5062895 is a cobalt micro drill bit engineered for precision drilling in demanding materials. Built to DIN 1899 standards from M35 cobalt steel, this wire-gauge size 73 bit measures 0.0240 inches (0.024 inch decimal) in diameter with a 118-degree standard point angle and a bright, uncoated finish. The spiral flute geometry with a web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust and improves chip evacuation in tight, small-diameter applications. With an overall length of 25 mm and a 1.00 mm straight-cylindrical shank, this bit is handled by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and precision fabricators working in close-tolerance environments.

This bit is designed for blind hole drilling, stack drilling, and through-hole drilling in titanium alloys as its primary workpiece material, with secondary suitability for glass and graphite. The flute length is 4.20 mm, with a maximum drilling depth of 3.10 mm (0.1000 inches). The 5xD flute-to-diameter ratio and right-hand cutting direction make it a standard fit for CNC machining centers and precision drill presses where micro-hole accuracy is critical. It is especially suited to aerospace, medical device, and advanced composite manufacturing workflows.

Key Features

• M35 cobalt steel construction for heat resistance and edge retention in titanium alloys
• 118-degree standard point angle with web-thinned, tapered web for reduced entry force
• Wire gauge size 73 — 0.0240 inch diameter — for micro-hole precision
• Bright/uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of cutting fluids and lubricants
• Spiral flute with 5xD ratio supports efficient chip removal in deep micro-holes
• Conforms to DIN 1899 specification for consistent dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision replacement or production-use micro drill for applications requiring wire-gauge size 73 tooling in titanium alloy, glass, and graphite workpieces per Series A3143 specifications.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians in precision drilling equipment such as CNC machining centers or bench-top drill presses rated for micro-diameter tooling. Verify spindle runout is within tolerance before use, as micro drill bits are sensitive to even minor misalignment. Always apply appropriate cutting fluid or lubrication for the workpiece material, and reduce feed rate relative to standard drill bits to avoid bit deflection or breakage at this diameter.
