Walter-titex 5154087 Taper Length Drill Bit 0.0960 in Hss

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5154087 is a taper length twist drill bit designed for precision hole-making in a wide range of metallic materials. Built from high speed steel with an oxide finish, this bit features a parabolic flute geometry and a web-thinned, tapered web configuration that improves chip evacuation and reduces thrust at the cutting edge. At 0.0960 inches in diameter and 3.75 inches in overall length, it is sized to wire gauge No. 41. The 130-degree point angle suits the broad material compatibility range this bit covers. Right-hand cut with a straight shank, it mounts directly in standard drill chucks without adapters.

This bit is suited for production and maintenance drilling operations in metalworking environments. Its parabolic flute and web-thinned geometry make it effective in materials that generate long, stringy chips or require clean entry holes. Compatible materials include aluminum, aluminum silicon, brass, bronze, copper alloy, stainless steel, and steel. It is a Series A1522 high-performance grade bit intended for use by machinists, tool and die technicians, and precision fabricators working on light-gauge ferrous and non-ferrous stock.

Key Features

• 0.0960 inch diameter, wire gauge No. 41 sizing for precise bore specification matching
• Parabolic flute design improves chip flow and reduces heat buildup during deeper cuts
• Web-thinned, tapered web lowers drilling thrust and extends cutting edge life
• 130-degree standard point angle provides broad material versatility
• Oxide finish enhances surface hardness and mild corrosion resistance
• High speed steel construction maintains edge integrity across ferrous and non-ferrous applications

Compatibility

Designed for drilling aluminum, aluminum silicon, brass, bronze, copper alloy, stainless steel, and steel. Part of the WALTER-TITEX Series A1522 high-performance taper length drill line.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or qualified metalworking technicians using standard drill press, CNC, or hand-held power drill equipment. Ensure the straight shank is fully seated and securely clamped in the chuck before operation. Power down and de-energize all equipment before changing tooling. Coolant-through is not supported on this bit; apply cutting fluid externally when drilling stainless steel or deep holes in tough alloys.
