Iscar 5506664 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 1.024 in IC908

Product Description

The ISCAR 5506664 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill tip from the ICP series, designed for high-performance drilling in demanding metalworking applications. It carries the IC908 manufacturer grade with a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering strong wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting zone. The tip measures 1.0240 inches in cutting diameter with a 140-degree included angle and a web-thinned point for improved centering and reduced thrust force. Two slow-spiral flutes and a honed cutting edge geometry contribute to stable chip evacuation and consistent hole quality. Licensed machinists and toolroom professionals working with CNC machining centers are the primary installers of this insert tip.

This replaceable drill tip is engineered primarily for cutting steel, classified under ISO material code P. Secondary workpiece materials include stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials, covering material codes M, K, S, and H. The ICP series design uses a twist-style insert holding method that locates the tip repeatably in compatible ICP drill bodies. The insert seat size is 26, corresponding to ISO number ICP 260. Typical applications include production drilling operations on machining centers in aerospace, automotive, die-and-mold, and general metalworking environments.

Key Features

• IC908 submicron carbide grade with PVD TiAlN coating for extended tool life in steel and stainless steel
• 140-degree included angle with web-thinned point reduces thrust and improves self-centering
• Slow-spiral, two-flute geometry supports controlled chip flow in deep hole drilling
• Honed cutting edge style minimizes edge chipping on entry and exit
• Twist-style insert holding provides rigid, repeatable tip location in ICP drill bodies
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for compatibility with CAM and tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ICP series replaceable tip drill bodies accepting insert seat size 26 (ISO number ICP 260). Suitable for primary workpiece material steel (code P) and secondary materials including stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials (codes M, K, S, H).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians on stationary or CNC-controlled equipment. Ensure the drill body spindle is fully stopped and locked out before seating or removing the replaceable tip. Use the correct torque tool as specified by the drill body manufacturer for the twist-style clamping interface. Verify tip seating and runout with a dial indicator before committing to production cuts.
