Iscar 5504968 Replaceable Drill Tip 0.748 in IC908 Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 5504968 is a replaceable drill tip designed for use with ISCAR IDI-SG series modular drilling systems. It features a 0.748-inch (19.00 mm) cutting diameter and a 140-degree point angle ground for stable entry and reduced thrust in a wide range of workpiece materials. The tip is manufactured from solid submicron carbide and finished with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating that supports cutting performance in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials. Insert seat size is 19. This tip is installed and replaced by machinists and CNC operators in production and job shop environments.

The 5504968 is suited for hole-making and drilling operations on machining centers and CNC turning centers where modular drill tooling is used. Its helical flute geometry, web-thinned point, and regular spiral configuration make it applicable across a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. Primary workpiece material codes supported are P, M, K, S, and H per ISO classification. The tip conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards, making it compatible with tool management and presetting workflows.

Installation Notes

Replaceable drill tips of this type are seated and clamped by a machinist or toolroom technician following the drill body manufacturer's torque and seating procedure. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tips. Inspect the insert seat and clamping surfaces for wear or debris before installation. Do not use damaged tips or worn seats, as improper seating can cause runout and premature failure.
