Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 4C12P-0102 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance hole-making in steel and hard materials. Built to GEN2 T-A series specifications, this insert features a 132-degree point angle and an AM300 PVD coating that extends tool life in demanding cutting environments. At 1-1/16 inches in diameter with a Seat Size 2 designation, it mounts to compatible T-A spade drill holders and delivers consistent performance in production drilling applications. Machining professionals, tooling specialists, and CNC operators install this insert as a replacement or initial-setup component in horizontal and vertical machining centers.

This insert is suited for drilling steel and hard materials in industrial and production machining environments. The GEN2 T-A series is engineered for through-coolant-capable holders and is commonly used in manufacturing operations where hole quality, tool life, and cycle time are critical. The AM300 PVD coating provides thermal resistance and wear protection, making this insert a practical choice for high-speed drilling passes in ferrous workpieces. It is sold individually and carries a minimum order quantity of one.
