Iscar 5506698 Replaceable Drill Tip 0.7280 in 140 Deg IC908

Product Description

The ISCAR 5506698 is a replaceable drill tip designed for use in modular drilling systems. It accepts a 0.7280-inch (19.00 mm) cutting diameter and features a 140-degree point angle with a web-thinned geometry for improved chip evacuation and reduced thrust. The tip is manufactured from solid carbide with a submicron grain structure and is PVD-coated with TiAlN for heat resistance and extended tool life. With an insert seat size of 18, it integrates with ICM-series drill bodies. Licensed HVAC techs, machinists, and toolroom professionals handling precision hole-making operations in demanding materials will recognize this as a production-grade consumable.

This drill tip is engineered primarily for cutting stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium (ISO material groups M and S). It also performs in secondary applications involving steel, cast iron, and hard materials (ISO groups P, K, and H). The two-flute helical design with regular spiral geometry suits through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations on CNC machining centers and modular drill platforms where repeatable, fast tip changes are required. It conforms to ISO 13399 tool data standards.

Key Features

• 0.7280-inch (19.00 mm) cutting diameter with insert seat size 18 for ICM-series bodies
• 140-degree standard point angle with web-thinned geometry for reduced entry force
• Solid carbide construction with submicron grain material grade IC908
• PVD-applied TiAlN coating for thermal resistance in high-temperature alloy cutting
• Two-flute helical design with regular spiral for consistent chip flow
• Clamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable tip seating

Compatibility

Designed for use with ICM-series modular drill bodies accepting seat size 18; ISO number ICM 185. Compatible primary workpiece materials include stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium (ISO groups M and S). Secondary workpiece materials include steel, cast iron, and hard materials (ISO groups P, K, and H).

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians on CNC or manual drill platforms. Ensure the drill body and tip seating surfaces are clean and free of chips or debris before seating the tip. Use the appropriate clamp torque tool as specified by the drill body manufacturer — do not overtighten by hand. Confirm tip is fully seated before initiating a cut.
