Allied Machine 1C22A-0106 Spade Drill Insert 1-3/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 1C22A-0106 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance drilling in demanding industrial applications. This insert features a 132-degree point angle and a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) TiAlN coating, which provides heat resistance and extended tool life in difficult-to-machine materials. Manufactured to Seat Size 2 in the T-A Series, the 1C22A-0106 is built to seat in compatible T-A series spade drill holders. It carries a manufacturer grade of C2 (K20), making it well-suited for precision drilling where tool rigidity and wear resistance are critical. Machinists and tool-room technicians rely on this insert for consistent, repeatable hole quality.

This insert is intended for use in machining centers, CNC lathes, and drill presses where spade-style drilling tooling is specified. It is designed to cut through stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and super-alloys including titanium. The TiAlN coating performs well at elevated cutting temperatures, making it appropriate for production environments where coolant-reduced or dry machining is sometimes required. At 1-3/16 inches in diameter, this insert targets medium-bore drilling operations in both job-shop and production-floor settings.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction at C2 (K20) grade for high rigidity and wear resistance
• TiAlN PVD coating for heat resistance and extended cutting life
• 132-degree point angle for aggressive penetration and reduced thrust
• Seat Size 2, T-A Series compatibility for use with standard T-A spade drill holders
• Rated for stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and super-alloys including titanium
• 0.1875 inches insert thickness for consistent seating and dimensional stability

Compatibility

Designed for use with Allied Machine and Engineering T-A Series Seat Size 2 spade drill holders. Compatible workpiece materials include stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and super-alloys and titanium (ISO material codes M, K, N, and S).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machining technicians familiar with indexable spade drill tooling. Before seating the insert, ensure the holder pocket is clean and free of chips or debris that could cause improper seating or runout. Use the correct insert screw and torque tool specified by the holder manufacturer for Seat Size 2 T-A holders. Verify insert seating and runout before commencing full-speed drilling operations.
