Iscar 5506701 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.768 in Tialn

Product Description

The ISCAR 5506701 is a carbide replaceable tip drill from the ICM series, designed for high-performance hole-making in demanding workpiece materials. The drill features a solid carbide tip with a TiAlN PVD coating, a 140-degree included angle, and a slow spiral flute configuration. The cutting diameter measures 0.768 inches (19.51 mm), and the functional length is 0.317 inches. With a web-thinned point and T-Land style geometry, this tool is engineered for stability and chip control in production drilling environments. It is installed and operated by machinists and tool-room technicians working on CNC machining centers and drilling machines.

This replaceable tip drill is intended for use on stainless steel, superalloy, and titanium as its primary workpiece materials. It also performs on steel, cast iron, and hard materials as secondary applications. The ICM series uses a twist-lock insert holding method, allowing the carbide tip to be replaced without removing the drill body from the machine. This makes it well-suited for high-volume production shops, aerospace component machining, and medical part manufacturing where tool change time and repeatability matter.

Key Features

• Solid carbide replaceable tip with IC908 manufacturer grade and submicron material grade for edge strength in tough alloys
• TiAlN PVD coating resists heat and wear in stainless steel, superalloy, and titanium cutting
• 140-degree included angle with web-thinned, thinned point type reduces entry force and improves centering
• Slow spiral flute geometry with 2 flutes promotes chip evacuation in gummy or work-hardening materials
• Twist-lock insert holding method enables fast tip replacement without disturbing tool body setup
• Conforms to ISO 13399 standard for tool data representation and compatibility with digital tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR ICM series drill bodies accepting insert seat size 19. ISO number ICM 195 identifies the compatible body designation. This tip is not compatible with non-ICM series bodies or alternate seat sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation and tip replacement should be performed by qualified machinists following the machine tool manufacturer and ISCAR tooling assembly procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing the replaceable tip. Use the correct torque tool as specified by ISCAR for the twist-lock seating mechanism to ensure proper tip retention and runout. Inspect the insert seat for wear or debris before seating a new tip.
