Built from Cobalt Vanadium High Speed Steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this bit delivers durability and heat resistance across a wide range of workpiece materials. The 0.242-inch diameter corresponds to Letter Size C and features a 130-degree split point for accurate self-centering entry without a center punch. A parabolic flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and improving feed rates. Licensed machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working in metal fabrication shops and industrial service environments are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bit is sized for screw machine length applications, where a shorter overall length of 2.75 inches provides rigidity and reduced deflection in close-clearance drilling setups. It is well suited for drilling cast iron, stainless steel, steel, hard materials, and non-ferrous metals. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, and the 3xD flute-to-diameter ratio supports controlled drilling depths up to 0.800 inches. The parabolic flute design and web-thinned, tapered web construction make it effective across a universal range of workpiece conditions, from production runs to maintenance repair operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLetter Size C (0.242 inches) with 130-degree split point for accurate, self-centering entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCobalt Vanadium High Speed Steel construction for heat and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParabolic flute geometry with web-thinned tapered web for efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for use with or without cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard drill chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets DIN, ISO, and BS standards for dimensional accuracy and performance classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard drill chucks accepting straight-cylindrical shanks.

Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped before drilling to prevent movement and injury. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material before beginning the cut. This bit does not feature coolant-through capability, so external coolant or cutting fluid should be applied as needed when drilling hard or heat-sensitive materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Size (Letter)\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.242 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt Vanadium High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parabolic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.219 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drilling Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.800 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute by Diameter Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3xD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tapered, Web-Thinned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Bit Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIN, ISO, BS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: A1148\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WALTER-TITEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5153716\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WALTER-TITEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740394750258,"sku":"5153716","price":25.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d778e31de38b3101e5d48fe228b3dfd1_72973dc5-cdad-42f8-b7e5-1c3b0972b00a.jpg?v=1788824725","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/walter-titex-5153716-screw-machine-drill-bit-0-242in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
