Manufactured from C2 carbide grade material and finished with an AM300 coating, this insert delivers hardness and wear resistance suited to production drilling applications. The 1\/2-inch inscribed circle (IC) size and insert size designation 0508 define its seating geometry. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians typically specify this insert when drilling steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials at production feed rates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in industrial and manufacturing environments where indexable drill bodies of the OP style are already in service. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling on CNC machining centers, lathes with live tooling, and dedicated drilling machines. The AM300 coating improves surface lubricity and thermal resistance, making it suitable for moderate to aggressive cutting parameters in ferrous materials. Insert size 0508 is appropriate for drill bodies configured to that seat specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with C2 material grade for rigidity and wear life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAM300 coating provides thermal and abrasion resistance during high-feed drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOP insert style for direct fitment into compatible Allied Machine indexable drill bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch inscribed circle geometry precisely seats in 0508-designated insert pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single insert, allowing targeted replacement without purchasing full sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in OP-style indexable drill bodies that accept a 1\/2-inch inscribed circle insert with size designation 0508.

Power down and lock out the spindle before removing or seating any indexable insert. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw specified by the drill body manufacturer — do not overtighten, as carbide inserts are brittle and can fracture under excess clamping force. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure full and even contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: OP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0508\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: AM300\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: OP-080508-2PW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51746485567794,"sku":"OP-080508-2PW","price":42.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2fd672d11a30f31a9fe7e6619e80501d.jpg?v=1788870761","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/allied-op-080508-2pw-indexable-drill-insert-solid-carbide-am300","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
