Allied Machine 10244-0200 Spade Drill Insert 2in Seat D

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 10244-0200 is a spade drill insert designed for high-performance drilling operations in metalworking and machining environments. Manufactured from CPM-M4 powdered metal, this insert delivers the wear resistance and edge toughness required for production drilling in steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. It features a 130-degree point angle suited for general-purpose drilling applications and ships in an uncoated finish. With a diameter of 2 inches, a seat size of D, a height of 2.375 inches, and a thickness of 0.375 inches, the insert is built to OEM dimensional standards for precise fit and repeatable performance. Machinists and tool-room technicians rely on this grade for demanding material removal applications.

This insert is intended for use in spade drill holder systems that accept a Seat Size D blade. It is applicable across a range of workpiece materials including steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals, making it well suited for both job shop and production floor environments. Common applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling in structural components, tooling plates, and machined parts where a 2-inch diameter bore is required. The uncoated CPM-M4 grade is a practical choice when regrinding and reconditioning are part of the tool management program.

Compatibility

Designed for use with spade drill holder bodies accepting a Seat Size D insert. Suitable for workpiece materials classified as steel (P), cast iron (K), and non-ferrous metals (N) per standard ISO material group designations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the spindle fully stopped and the machine locked out per applicable safety procedures. Seat and insert mating surfaces should be clean and free of chips or debris before seating the insert to ensure proper blade contact and drilling accuracy. Follow the holder manufacturer's clamping procedure and fastener specifications for the Seat Size D interface. Inspect the insert edge condition before each use and replace or regrind when wear affects hole quality or dimensional tolerance.
