Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter with a 180-degree point angle, this insert seats in a size Z holder within the T-A spade drill system. The TiN coating is applied via PVD process, increasing surface hardness and reducing friction at the cutting edge. At 0.0938 inches thick and 0.1 pounds, it is a precision-ground, single-blade cutting insert intended for professional machine shop environments. Machinists and tooling technicians install and index these inserts as part of a modular boring and drilling program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for drilling operations in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, and titanium. Its cobalt substrate and TiN PVD coating make it appropriate for abrasive and work-hardening materials where high-speed steel would wear prematurely. It is intended for use in CNC machining centers, lathes with live tooling, or dedicated drilling machines where the T-A spade drill body with a size Z seat is already in use. It is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCobalt substrate provides increased heat resistance and wear life compared to standard HSS inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating applied by PVD process reduces friction and extends cutting edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e180-degree point angle suited for flat-bottom entry and through-hole drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits size Z seat in the T-A modular spade drill body system\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, and titanium workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.1 pounds for easy indexing and handling at the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with T-A series spade drill bodies accepting a size Z insert seat.

The machine spindle must be stopped and the tool holder fully secured before indexing or replacing the insert. Use the correct insert screw torque driver specified for the T-A body to avoid seat damage or insert movement during cutting. Inspect the seat for chips or debris before seating the new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Z\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: T-A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cobalt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Classification\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0938 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Super-alloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15ZT-0016-FB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744655835442,"sku":"15ZT-0016-FB","price":130.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9ffd4aa2a263e07e57bbfdcd5915c548_89f8fc1b-7fc5-4a82-900b-0084d89e9922.jpg?v=1788859616","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/allied-15zt-0016-fb-spade-drill-insert-1-2-in-cobalt-tin-180","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
