Iscar 5509030 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.988 in

Product Description

The ISCAR 5509030 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill in the ICP series, designed for high-productivity hole-making in demanding machining environments. The insert tip features a TiAlN PVD coating and a 140-degree included angle with a thinned point geometry for reduced thrust and improved chip flow. The cutting diameter measures 0.988 inches and the tip height is 0.571 inches. With a slow spiral, two-flute design and honed cutting edge, this drill is built for consistent, repeatable performance in CNC turning and machining centers. It is installed and serviced by machinists and tooling specialists working to close-tolerance drilling programs.

This replaceable tip drill is engineered for primary use in steel (ISO material code P) and is also rated for secondary workpiece materials including stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials (ISO codes M, K, S, and H). The ICP series design uses a twist insert-holding method, allowing quick tip changes at the machine without removing the drill body from the spindle. Typical applications include production drilling in job shops, aerospace component manufacturing, and general metalworking operations where tool change time and consistency matter.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip with IC908 submicron-grade substrate for wear resistance in steel and hard materials
• TiAlN PVD coating for elevated-temperature performance and extended tool life
• 140-degree thinned point geometry reduces axial thrust and improves self-centering
• Slow spiral, two-flute design promotes controlled chip evacuation in deep-hole applications
• Honed cutting edge provides consistent edge integrity across production runs
• Twist-lock insert holding method enables fast tip replacement without body removal

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement tip for ISCAR ICP series drill bodies with an insert seat size of 25, conforming to ISO 13399 tooling standards.

Installation Notes

This tip is installed and replaced by machinists or tooling technicians familiar with indexable drill systems. De-energize the machine and confirm spindle stop before handling any replaceable tip component. Use the appropriate ISCAR torque tool as specified by the drill body documentation when securing the twist-lock tip. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for debris or wear before installing a new tip to ensure proper seating and runout.
