Allied OP-05T308-2H WCMX05 AM200 Indexable Drill Insert

Product Description

The ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING OP-05T308-2H is a solid carbide indexable drill insert designed for use in indexable drilling operations across a broad range of workpiece materials. Manufactured to the WCMX insert style with an 80-degree trigon shape and a 7-degree relief angle, this insert carries the AM200 grade coating for extended tool life under demanding cutting conditions. The inscribed circle measures 0.3126 inches (7.94 mm), the thickness is 0.1563 inches, and the corner radius is 0.0315 inches (0.80 mm). It is installed and serviced by machinists and tooling technicians in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for use in indexable drill bodies that accept WCMX 05T3 style inserts. The AM200 grade is rated for universal workpiece material compatibility, covering steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys as indicated by material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations on CNC machining centers and turning centers in both production and maintenance machining environments.

Compatibility

Designed for use in indexable drill bodies that accept WCMX 05T3 insert style seats. Compatible with workpiece materials spanning steel (P), stainless steel (M), cast iron (K), non-ferrous (N), hardened materials (H), and superalloys (S) per the manufacturer material classification codes provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Insert seating and torque should follow the drill body manufacturer's tooling manual for WCMX-style inserts. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Handle carbide inserts with care to avoid chipping the cutting edge. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or damage before seating a new insert.
