Allied Machine and Engineering 1022T-0115 Spade Drill Insert

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING 1022T-0115 is a spade drill insert designed for high-production drilling applications in metal cutting environments. This insert measures 1-15/32 inches in diameter with a 130-degree point angle and is manufactured from high speed steel with a TiN (titanium nitride) PVD coating applied to extend tool life and reduce friction at the cutting edge. The seat size is B, and the insert thickness is 0.2813 inches with a height of 1-3/32 inches. Licensed machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC operators install and index these inserts as part of spade drill body assemblies used across production machining operations.

This spade drill insert is suited for drilling into steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals, covering workpiece material codes P, N, and K. It fits Series B spade drill bodies and is appropriate for both manual and CNC machine tool setups. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling in medium to high volume production environments where indexable tooling reduces downtime compared to regrinding solid drills.

Key Features

• 1-15/32 inch diameter cutting edge for precision bore sizing
• 130-degree point angle optimized for general-purpose drilling in steel and cast iron
• High speed steel construction provides toughness across a range of workpiece hardnesses
• TiN PVD coating reduces tool wear and improves chip evacuation
• Seat Size B for compatibility with Series B spade drill bodies
• Insert thickness of 0.2813 inches with a height of 1-3/32 inches for consistent seating

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement insert for Series B spade drill body holders. Compatible with primary workpiece materials including steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals (material codes P, N, and K).

Installation Notes

Indexable spade drill inserts are installed and serviced by machinists and toolroom personnel following machine tool lockout/tagout procedures before any insert change. The insert should be seated fully and secured according to the drill body manufacturer's torque specifications found in the holder documentation. Inspect the seat and clamping screw for wear or debris before installing a new insert. Handle TiN-coated inserts carefully to avoid chipping the coating prior to use.
