Walter-titex 7378241 Screw Machine Drill Bit 13/32 in

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 7378241 is a screw machine length drill bit designed for high-performance drilling in demanding industrial and trade applications. Built from solid carbide with a 140-degree X treme Evo point, it delivers clean entry and consistent hole geometry across a range of workpiece materials. The bit measures 13/32 inches (0.4063 inches decimal) in diameter with an overall length of 4.016 inches and a flute length of 2.165 inches. Coolant-through capability supports sustained cutting speeds in production environments. The straight-cylindrical shank and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard drill chucks and CNC spindles. This bit belongs to the DC160-03-A1 series and carries the Universal Advance performance classification with material grade WJ30ET.

This drill bit is suited for use in machining, fabrication, and mechanical contracting environments where consistent, repeatable hole quality is required. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron, hard materials, non-ferrous metals, and steel. The screw machine length format — shorter overall length relative to jobber bits — provides added rigidity and reduced deflection, making it a practical choice for close-tolerance work in lathes, CNC machining centers, drill presses, and similar setups. Manufactured to DIN and ISO standards.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 140-degree X treme Evo point geometry for accurate self-centering and reduced thrust
• Coolant-through design extends tool life in continuous or high-speed drilling operations
• Screw machine length format provides increased rigidity and reduced deflection compared to jobber-length bits
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and CNC tool holders
• Manufactured to DIN and ISO standards with m7 diameter tolerance

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, lathes, and other machine tool setups accepting a straight-cylindrical shank. Suitable for drilling cast iron, hard materials, non-ferrous metals, and steel per the DC160-03-A1 series application guidelines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or mechanical technician familiar with cutting tool setup and machine operation. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Verify shank diameter compatibility with the chuck or collet before seating the bit. When using coolant-through capability, confirm that the machine tool's coolant circuit is properly connected and that operating pressures are within the machine manufacturer's specifications.
