Allied Machine 7C213P-0017 Spade Drill Insert 17/32 in

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 7C213P-0017 is a solid carbide spade drill insert designed for high-performance hole-making in demanding machining applications. Part of the GEN3SYS XT series, this insert features a 17/32 inch cutting diameter, a 140-degree point angle, and an AM300 PVD coating applied to a C2 (K20) carbide grade substrate. The AM300 coating enhances wear resistance and thermal stability, extending tool life in difficult-to-machine materials. This insert seats into Size 13 spade drill holders and is built for use in CNC machining centers, lathes, and drill presses where consistent bore quality and tool longevity are required.

The 7C213P-0017 is engineered for machining stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and super-alloys including titanium — workpiece material codes M, K, N, and S. It is suited for both production and job-shop environments where a single insert must perform across multiple material types. The GEN3SYS XT platform is a modular spade drilling system, and this insert is a direct component of that system, replacing the insert in the holder body without replacing the entire tool assembly.

Key Features

• 17/32 inch cutting diameter with 140-degree point angle for accurate entry and reduced thrust
• Solid carbide construction, manufacturer grade C2 (K20), for rigidity and wear resistance
• AM300 PVD coating classification for extended tool life in high-temp and abrasive cuts
• Compatible with Size 13 spade drill holder seats in the GEN3SYS XT system
• Effective across stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and super-alloys including titanium
• Modular insert design allows insert replacement without discarding the holder body

Compatibility

Designed for use with Size 13 seat GEN3SYS XT series spade drill holders from ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING. Confirmed primary workpiece material codes: M (stainless steel), K (cast iron), N (non-ferrous metals), and S (super-alloys and titanium).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully and evenly into the holder pocket before securing the clamping screw to the manufacturer-specified method. Inspect the holder seat for chips or debris before seating a new insert, as contamination can affect runout and bore quality.
