Ingersoll Cutting Tools 5101001 Indexable Drill Insert

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 5101001 is a carbide indexable drill insert designed for use in indexable drill bodies in metal-cutting operations. Carrying the IN1030 manufacturer grade and a TiCN coating applied via PVD process, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across demanding cutting applications. The square SHLT-style geometry features a positive rake angle, four usable cutting edges, and an FS chipbreaker for controlled chip evacuation. With an inscribed circle of 0.435 inches and a corner radius of 0.030 inches, it fits precisely into compatible SHLT-N-FS series drill bodies and meets ANSI code SHLT110408N-FS. Licensed machinists and toolroom professionals install this insert as part of a modular drilling system.

This insert is engineered for drilling steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium, covering material grade designations P, M, and K. It is suited for both production machining and job-shop environments where consistent hole quality and insert indexability reduce downtime. Compatible drill styles include the 15C, 15S, and DHU series drill bodies. The SHLT110408N-FS designation aligns this insert with standard ANSI and ISO tooling systems, making it straightforward to specify as a replacement or additional inventory item for existing tooling setups.

Key Features

• IN1030 carbide grade with TiCN PVD coating for improved wear resistance on ferrous and difficult-to-machine materials
• Four indexable cutting edges extend tool life per insert and reduce per-hole cost
• FS chipbreaker geometry supports positive rake cutting and controlled chip formation
• Square SHLT insert style with 90-degree included angle for precise seating in compatible drill bodies
• Covers P, M, and K material grade classifications including steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium
• ANSI and ISO code SHLT110408N-FS for straightforward cross-referencing and procurement

Compatibility

Designed for use with 15C, 15S, and DHU compatible drill body styles in the SHLT-N-FS series. ANSI and ISO code SHLT110408N-FS applies.

Installation Notes

Indexable drill inserts of this type are seated and clamped by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians following the drill body manufacturer torque and seating procedures. Shut down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Handle carbide inserts carefully to avoid chipping cutting edges prior to use. Verify insert orientation and chipbreaker direction against the drill body specification before resuming cutting operations.
