Iscar 5506641 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.728 in Icp

Product Description

The ISCAR 5506641 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill in the ICP series, designed for high-productivity hole-making operations in metalworking applications. The tip measures 0.728 inches in cutting diameter and features a 140-degree included angle with a thinned web point for reduced thrust and improved self-centering. The TiAlN coating is applied via PVD process, providing thermal resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds. With a slow spiral flute geometry and honed cutting edge, this tip suits controlled-feed drilling in steel and other demanding workpiece materials. Machinists, tool-and-die shops, and CNC operators working in production environments are the primary users.

This replaceable tip drill is suited for drilling operations in steel as the primary workpiece material. Secondary compatible materials include stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials. The ICP series platform is designed for use on CNC machining centers and lathes where consistent hole geometry and repeatable tip indexing are required. The P insert geometry and size 18 insert seat are specific to ISCAR ICP series drill bodies. The tip conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards, making it compatible with CAM and tool management software that references that standard.

Key Features

• 0.728-inch cutting diameter with 140-degree included point angle for accurate entry and reduced thrust
• Solid carbide construction with IC908 submicron grade for wear resistance in ferrous materials
• TiAlN PVD coating provides thermal stability and longer tool life in dry or minimal-lubricant cutting
• Thinned web point geometry reduces axial cutting forces and improves chip evacuation
• Slow spiral flute design optimized for controlled-feed drilling in steel and hard materials
• ISO 13399 compliant for integration with digital tool management and CAM systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR ICP series replaceable tip drill bodies, specifically insert seat size 18. ISO number reference is ICP 185. Suitable for workpiece materials coded P, M, K, S, and H under ISO material classification.

Installation Notes

Installation of this replaceable tip should be performed by a qualified machinist following the drill body manufacturer torque guidelines for the ICP series seat. Ensure the drill body seat is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the tip to prevent runout or premature tip failure. Verify spindle and tool holder runout is within acceptable limits before beginning cuts. Do not exceed the recommended feed and speed parameters for the IC908 grade and workpiece material combination.
