Iscar 5508424 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill Icp Tialn

Product Description

The ISCAR 5508424 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill insert designed for high-performance drilling in demanding machining environments. Part of the ICP series, this insert features a 0.567-inch cutting diameter, a 140-degree drill point angle, and a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process. The IC908 submicron carbide grade delivers wear resistance and edge integrity at elevated cutting speeds. At 0.321 inches in height and 0.235 inches in functional length, it seats into compatible ICP 144 insert seat size 14 drill bodies. Installed by machinists and tooling professionals in CNC drilling operations.

This insert is suited for drilling steel as its primary workpiece material. Secondary applications include stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials. The slow spiral flute design, honed cutting edge style, and web-thinned point geometry support chip evacuation and entry performance across these material groups. It is well-suited for production drilling operations where consistent hole quality and insert repeatability are required. The insert does not include through-coolant capability, so external coolant supply or other cooling strategies apply where thermal management is needed.

Key Features

• 0.567-inch cutting diameter with ISO 13399-compliant geometry documentation
• 140-degree included angle with web-thinned point for reduced thrust and improved entry
• TiAlN PVD coating for heat resistance and extended tool life in steel and hard materials
• IC908 submicron carbide grade for edge stability at high cutting parameters
• Slow spiral, 2-flute configuration for controlled chip flow in short-hole drilling
• Honed cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping on entry and exit

Compatibility

Designed as a replaceable tip insert for ICP series drill bodies using ISO insert seat size 14, ISO number ICP 144. Verify drill body seat condition and clamping torque specifications per the drill body manufacturer before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. De-energize and lock out the machine spindle before removing or seating the insert. Use the recommended torque wrench per the drill body manufacturer specification — do not overtighten or substitute fasteners. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before seating a new tip; contamination in the pocket affects runout and can damage the seat.
