Allied Machine 7C126P-0101 Spade Drill Insert 1-1/32 in

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 7C126P-0101 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance drilling operations in steel and hard materials. Sized at 1-1/32 inches in diameter and rated for Seat Size 26 holders, this insert features a 140-degree point angle optimized for accurate entry and reduced thrust in demanding applications. It carries an AM300 PVD coating, which improves wear resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and hard-material cutting environments. Part of the GEN3SYS XT series, this insert is installed by machinists and tool-room professionals working with modular spade drill systems on CNC lathes, machining centers, and similar platforms.

This insert is suited for production drilling in steel and hard materials where consistent hole quality and insert longevity are priorities. The GEN3SYS XT series is engineered for modular spade drill bodies, allowing fast insert changes without removing the drill body from the spindle. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling in steel components across metalworking, manufacturing, and job-shop environments. The solid carbide construction and PVD AM300 coating make it appropriate for both dry and minimum-quantity lubrication (MQL) cutting strategies.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction in Manufacturer Grade C1 (K35) for rigidity and wear resistance
• AM300 PVD coating provides enhanced tool life in steel and hard-material applications
• 140-degree point angle reduces thrust load and improves hole entry accuracy
• Part of the GEN3SYS XT series for fast, repeatable modular insert changes
• Height of 0.55 inches for consistent seating in compatible Seat Size 26 drill bodies
• Primary workpiece material compatibility: Steel and Hard Material (Material Codes P and H)

Compatibility

Designed for use with GEN3SYS XT series modular spade drill bodies accepting Seat Size 26 inserts. Compatible with primary workpiece materials classified as Steel (P) and Hard Material (H) per ISO material group designations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. The drill body should be secured in the spindle and confirmed stationary before inserting or removing the spade drill insert. Use the appropriate torx or insert-clamping wrench specified for the GEN3SYS XT body to seat the insert fully and evenly. Do not overtighten the clamping screw beyond the tool body manufacturer guidelines, and inspect the insert seat for debris or damage before seating a new insert.
