Allied Machine 4C2ZP-0015 Spade Drill Insert 15/32 in Carbide

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 4C2ZP-0015 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance hole-making in demanding machining applications. It features a 15/32 inch diameter, a 132-degree point angle, and an AM300 PVD coating for extended tool life. The insert seats in a Seat Size Z holder and belongs to the GEN2 T-A series. Machining professionals and tooling specialists install this insert into compatible spade drill bodies for use on CNC machining centers, lathes with live tooling, and manual drill presses requiring precision boring.

This insert is suited for drilling operations in stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, super-alloys, and titanium. Its manufacturer grade C2 (K20) carbide substrate and AM300 PVD coating make it appropriate for production environments where tool wear and surface finish are critical. The GEN2 T-A series is a common platform in industrial job shops and manufacturing facilities running interrupted cuts or difficult-to-machine alloys. Sold individually as a single replacement insert.

• Seat Size Z interface for secure, repeatable seating in compatible GEN2 T-A spade drill bodies
• Rated for stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, super-alloys, and titanium (material codes M, K, N, S)
• Compact insert profile: 1.5 inches length, 1.5 inches width, 0.38 inches height, 0.0938 inches thickness

Compatibility

Designed for use with GEN2 T-A series spade drill bodies accepting a Seat Size Z insert. Verify holder seat size and series before ordering to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tooling technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing drill inserts. Inspect the holder pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before installing the insert, as contamination can affect seating accuracy and cause premature insert failure. Follow the tool holder manufacturer torque guidelines for the clamping screw — do not overtighten.
