Iscar 3260045 Indexable Insert Drill 1.25 in 1xd

Product Description

The ISCAR 3260045 is an indexable insert drill from the DRDRILLS series, designed for high-productivity hole-making operations in metalworking environments. It accepts two indexable inserts and features a straight cylindrical shank for rigid, repeatable setup in standard drill chucks and tool holders. With a 1.25-inch drill diameter and a 1xD depth-to-diameter ratio, this body is built for controlled, short-hole drilling where precision and insert changeability matter. Coolant-through capability supports chip evacuation and heat management at the cutting zone. At 0.637 pounds, the body is compact enough for automated tooling setups without adding unnecessary spindle load.

This drill body is suited for use in machining centers, CNC turning centers with live tooling, and manual milling applications where indexable tooling is preferred over brazed or solid carbide drills. Compatible insert styles include SOMT-DT and SOMT-GF geometries, covering a range of workpiece materials under general-purpose cutting conditions. Typical operations include plunging, shouldering, slotting, and spot facing, making this a versatile short-hole tool for job shops and production environments alike.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician familiar with indexable cutting tool systems. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or dismounting inserts or changing the drill body. Secure the straight shank in a properly sized collet chuck or hydraulic holder to the tool holder manufacturer torque specifications. Verify insert seating and screw torque per the insert manufacturer guidelines before initiating a cutting cycle.
