Ingersoll Cutting Tools 6173355 Replaceable Drill Tip 24mm

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 6173355 is a solid carbide replaceable drill tip designed for high-performance drilling in steel and cast iron applications. Part of the TPC series, this tip carries an IN2505 manufacturer grade and features a TiAlN and TiN PVD coating applied via physical vapor deposition for extended tool life under demanding cutting conditions. The 140-degree drill point angle and self-centering point geometry promote accurate hole entry and reduce walking on entry into workpiece surfaces. With a cutting diameter of 24 millimeters and a 2-flute helical configuration, it delivers efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting action. Licensed HVAC, machining, and metalworking professionals specify this tip for production drilling environments.

This replaceable drill tip is suited for use in CNC machining centers and drilling operations targeting steel and cast iron workpieces, including both P-class and K-class ISO material groups. The coolant-through design channels cutting fluid directly to the tip face, supporting higher feed rates and longer tool life in continuous drilling cycles. It is clamp-held in compatible TPC-series insert seats and is appropriate for spot drilling and through-hole drilling applications. The ISO designation for this tip is TPC2450R01 IN2505.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction in IN2505 grade for wear resistance in P15-P30 steel and K-class cast iron
• TiAlN and TiN PVD coating extends cutting edge life under high-heat conditions
• 140-degree self-centering drill point reduces entry deflection and improves positional accuracy
• Coolant-through capability delivers fluid directly to the cutting zone for thermal management
• 2-flute helical design promotes chip evacuation in deep-hole and through-hole drilling
• Clamp-held in TPC-series insert seats for secure, repeatable tip positioning

Compatibility

Designed for use in TPC-series insert seat size 24 drill bodies. Compatible with workpieces in ISO material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron). ISO number TPC2450R01 IN2505.

Installation Notes

Replaceable carbide drill tips of this type are installed and serviced by machining professionals using manufacturer-specified torx or hex keys to engage the clamp mechanism. Power down and de-energize all machine spindles before tip removal or installation. Ensure the insert seat is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the tip to prevent improper clamping and tip damage. Follow machine tool builder guidelines and applicable ANSI standards for tooling changeover procedures.
