Allied Machine 1C50A-0019 Spade Drill Insert 19/32 in Carbide

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 1C50A-0019 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for precision hole-making in metal cutting applications. Built to T-A series specifications, this insert features a 132-degree point angle and a TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride) PVD coating that improves wear resistance and extends tool life at elevated cutting temperatures. The insert measures 0.125 inches in thickness and fits a Seat Size 0 holder. It carries a C5 (P40) material grade, making it well-suited for productive cutting in steel and hard material workpieces. Machinists and tooling specialists working in industrial production and job shop environments rely on this insert for consistent, repeatable performance in demanding drilling operations.

The 1C50A-0019 is intended for use in T-A series spade drill holders that accept a Seat Size 0 insert. Primary workpiece materials include steel and hard materials, classified under material grades P and H. It is commonly used in CNC machining centers, lathes with live tooling, and dedicated drilling machines in both production and maintenance-repair-operations (MRO) environments. The TiAlN coating supports higher surface speeds and reduces built-up edge in ferrous cutting applications.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with C5 (P40) material grade for durability in steel cutting
• TiAlN PVD coating improves heat resistance and extends insert life
• 132-degree point angle for efficient chip formation and reduced thrust force
• Seat Size 0 T-A series compatibility for straightforward holder matching
• 0.125 inch insert thickness for stable seating in the holder pocket
• Rated for primary workpiece materials: steel and hard materials (P and H grades)

Compatibility

Designed for use with T-A series spade drill holders accepting a Seat Size 0 insert. Confirmed primary workpiece material compatibility includes steel and hard materials per material codes P and H.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and torquing should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician following the holder manufacturer's guidelines. Ensure the holder pocket and insert seat are clean and free of chips or debris before seating the insert. Machine spindle must be fully stopped and the machine locked out before changing inserts. Inspect the insert seat for wear or damage at each tool change to maintain dimensional accuracy.
