Allied 7C120P-0026 Spade Drill Insert 13/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 7C120P-0026 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance drilling in steel and hard materials. Part of the GEN3SYS XT series, this insert features a 140-degree point angle and an AM300 PVD coating classified under manufacturer grade C1 (K35). The 13/16-inch diameter and Seat Size 12 designation make it a direct fit for compatible GEN3SYS XT spade drill holders. Licensed machinists and tool-room technicians use this insert in production drilling environments where tool life and hole quality in demanding workpiece materials are critical priorities.

This insert is suited for drilling operations in steel and hard materials in both production and job-shop environments. The GEN3SYS XT series is engineered for deep-hole and through-hole drilling applications where indexable carbide inserts offer a cost-effective alternative to solid round tooling. The AM300 PVD coating provides wear resistance in ferrous and hard-material cutting conditions. Typical install scenarios include CNC machining centers, drill presses, and turning centers equipped with compatible GEN3SYS XT spade drill bodies.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction in manufacturer grade C1 (K35) for hardness and wear resistance
• AM300 PVD coating for extended tool life in steel and hard material applications
• 140-degree point angle for reduced thrust and improved chip formation
• GEN3SYS XT series designation for direct indexable insert replacement in compatible holders
• Seat Size 12 for precise, repeatable seating in matching spade drill bodies
• Height of 0.49 inches for accurate holder fitment

Compatibility

Designed for use with GEN3SYS XT series spade drill holders accepting a Seat Size 12 insert at 13/16-inch diameter. Primary workpiece materials are steel (material code P) and hard materials (material code H).

Installation Notes

Installation of indexable spade drill inserts should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before removing or seating any insert. Use the correct torque driver or insert key specified for the GEN3SYS XT holder to avoid under- or over-torquing the clamping screw, which can cause insert movement or holder damage. Inspect the insert seat and clamping surfaces for chips or debris before seating a new insert.
