Allied 152N-0101 Spade Drill Insert 1-1/32 in Cobalt Ticn

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 152N-0101 is a cobalt spade drill insert designed for high-performance hole-making in demanding industrial machining applications. Part of the T-A series, this insert features a 132-degree point angle and a titanium carbonitride (TiCN) PVD coating that improves surface hardness and wear resistance. At 0.1875 inches thick and sized for a Seat Size 2 holder, this insert delivers consistent performance across a range of workpiece materials. It is installed by machinists and tooling technicians operating drill presses, CNC machining centers, or manual lathes configured for spade drilling.

This insert is suited for production drilling operations in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, and titanium. The TiCN coating provides a hard, low-friction interface that extends tool life when cutting ferrous and exotic alloy workpieces. The 1-1/32 inch diameter and Seat Size 2 designation make it compatible with corresponding T-A series spade drill holders. It is used in both job shop and high-volume manufacturing environments where repeatable hole quality and insert longevity are priorities.

Key Features

• 1-1/32 inch cutting diameter for precise hole sizing in metal workpieces
• 132-degree point angle suited for drilling into steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, and titanium
• Cobalt substrate provides heat resistance and toughness during aggressive cutting cycles
• TiCN PVD coating improves surface hardness and reduces insert wear
• 0.1875 inch insert thickness for stable seating in compatible holders
• T-A series design for use with Seat Size 2 spade drill holders

Compatibility

Designed for use with T-A series Seat Size 2 spade drill holders. Compatible with workpiece materials coded P (steel), M (stainless steel), K (cast iron), and S (super-alloys and titanium).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spade drill holder is fully disengaged from the spindle and all machine power is locked out before inserting or removing the drill insert. Seat the insert fully and verify it is secured per the holder manufacturer torque requirements before resuming cutting operations. Follow applicable shop safety protocols and machine tool manufacturer guidelines when setting up tooling.
