Walter-titex 5154084 Taper Length Drill Bit 0.1160 in

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5154084 is a taper length twist drill bit engineered for high-performance drilling in a wide range of metallic materials. Built from high speed steel (HSS) with a coated finish, it measures 0.1160 inches in diameter and carries a 130-degree split point angle for accurate self-centering entry. The parabolic flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and extending tool life in demanding applications. With an overall length of 3-15/16 inches and a flute length of 2-19/32 inches, this bit suits jobs that require reach beyond what a jobber-length drill provides. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical contractors who drill into structural or sheet metal assemblies will find this geometry well matched to their workflow.

This drill bit is suited for blind hole drilling, stack drilling, and through-hole drilling in aluminum, aluminum silicon alloys, brass, bronze, copper alloy, stainless steel, and steel. The web-thinned, tapered web configuration reduces thrust requirements when drilling harder alloys or stacked materials. Its parallel shank at 0.1160 inches (2.94 mm) fits standard drill chucks without adapters. The Series A1522 designation identifies it within the WALTER-TITEX catalog for direct replacement or reorder. It is supplied individually and is appropriate for use in both hand-held and machine setups where controlled feed and speed can be maintained.

Key Features

• 0.1160 inches diameter, wire size No. 32, with a diameter tolerance of -0.00055 to 0.00000 inches for precision fitment
• 130-degree standard point angle with web thinning for reduced entry thrust
• Parabolic flute geometry at a 12xD flute-to-diameter ratio for aggressive chip clearance
• HSS construction with coated finish for improved wear resistance across multiple material types
• Parallel shank, right-hand cut, no coolant-through requirement — compatible with standard chuck setups
• Conforms to DIN 340 standard for taper length drill geometry

Compatibility

Designed for use in aluminum, aluminum silicon alloys, brass, bronze, copper alloy, stainless steel, and steel. Suitable for blind hole, stack, and through-hole drilling applications where a taper length reach is required. Fits any standard drill chuck accepting a 0.1160-inch parallel shank.

Installation Notes

This bit should be installed by a qualified machinist, fabricator, or trade professional familiar with metal drilling procedures. Power down and secure the workpiece before changing bits in any drill press or powered hand tool. Use appropriate cutting fluid or lubricant when drilling stainless steel or copper alloys to manage heat and extend bit life. Follow applicable safety codes and machine manufacturer guidelines for feed rate and RPM selection based on material hardness and drill diameter.
