Allied Machine 15YN-0013 Spade Drill Insert 13/32 in Cobalt Ticn

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 15YN-0013 is a cobalt spade drill insert designed for high-performance hole-making in demanding machining applications. This insert measures 13/32 inches in diameter and features a 132-degree point angle for precise entry and reduced thrust. The TiCN (titanium carbonitride) PVD coating improves wear resistance and extends tool life across a wide range of workpiece materials. At 0.0938 inches thick, the insert fits Seat Size Y holders in the T-A spade drill system. It is specified by machinists and tooling professionals working in production environments where consistent bore quality and tool longevity are required.

This insert is suited for drilling operations in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, and titanium. The T-A series spade drill system is widely used in CNC machining centers, turning centers, and manual machines where indexable drilling tooling is preferred over solid carbide or high-speed steel drills. The 15YN-0013 is appropriate for both roughing and precision-hole applications in industrial and job-shop environments. Minimum order quantity is 2 inserts; each package contains 1 insert.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Ensure the holder is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the insert. Follow the tool holder manufacturer's torque specifications for the insert clamping screw. Inspect the insert seat and clamping components for wear before each use to maintain positional accuracy and safe operation.
