Iscar 5508351 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.366 in IC908

Product Description

The ISCAR 5508351 is a carbide replaceable tip drill insert in the ICM series, designed for precision drilling in demanding materials. Built from submicron solid carbide with an IC908 manufacturer grade, this tip features a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process for enhanced wear resistance and heat tolerance. The 140-degree drill point angle with web thinning promotes clean entry and reduces thrust. At 0.366 inches cutting diameter and 0.228 inches functional length, this insert fits T-Land geometry seats and is installed by machining professionals in production and job-shop environments.

This replaceable tip drill is engineered for primary use in stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium (ISO material codes M and S). Secondary workpiece materials include steel, cast iron, and hard materials (ISO codes P, K, and H). The slow spiral, two-flute design supports chip evacuation in tough, gummy, or abrasive workpiece materials. It suits applications where a quick-change, replaceable-tip system reduces tooling cost and downtime compared to solid indexable alternatives. Typical use cases include aerospace, medical, and general precision machining operations.

Key Features

• Submicron solid carbide construction in IC908 grade for toughness in difficult-to-machine alloys
• TiAlN PVD coating for high-temperature wear resistance
• 140-degree included point angle with web thinning for reduced thrust and clean entry
• Slow spiral, two-flute geometry supports chip flow in stainless steel, titanium, and superalloys
• T-Land insert style for edge strength in hard and abrasive materials
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for system interoperability

Compatibility

Designed for use with ICM series replaceable tip drill bodies accepting a size 9 insert seat. Refer to the ISCAR ICM system documentation (ISO Number ICM 093) to confirm body compatibility before ordering.

Installation Notes

Replaceable tip drill inserts of this type are installed and serviced by qualified machinists using the twist-lock method specified for the ICM tool body. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing or inspecting the tip. Seat surfaces should be clean and free of chips before seating the insert to ensure accurate tip runout. Follow the tool body manufacturer torque guidance for the clamping interface to avoid cracking the carbide tip.
