Iscar 5509469 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.299 in

Product Description

The ISCAR 5509469 is a carbide replaceable tip drill insert from the ICM series, designed for precision drilling in demanding metalworking applications. This tip carries the IC908 grade with a submicron solid carbide construction and a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering strong wear resistance at elevated cutting temperatures. The included point angle is 140 degrees with a web-thinned, T-Land geometry that reduces thrust and improves chip flow. It fits ICM series modular drill bodies at insert seat size 7. Installation and tool management are handled by licensed machinists and CNC tooling technicians.

This replaceable tip is suited for drilling stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium as primary workpiece materials, with secondary capability in steel, cast iron, and hard materials. The slow spiral flute type and thinned point are optimized for the short-chipping and work-hardening behavior common in austenitic stainless and nickel-based superalloys. It is used in production machining environments where modular drill systems reduce downtime and tooling cost by replacing only the worn tip rather than the entire drill body.

Key Features

• IC908 submicron solid carbide grade for toughness and edge retention in difficult-to-machine materials
• TiAlN PVD coating provides oxidation resistance and extended tool life at high cutting speeds
• 140-degree included angle with web-thinned, T-Land point reduces entry thrust and improves centering
• Slow spiral flute design promotes controlled chip evacuation in stainless steel and superalloys
• Modular ICM series interface allows fast tip exchange without removing the drill body from the spindle
• Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards for integration with CAM and tool management systems

Compatibility

Designed for use with ISCAR ICM series modular drill bodies at insert seat size 7, ISO number ICM 076, as a direct replaceable tip insert.

Installation Notes

Replaceable tip drills of this type are installed and indexed by machinists following the drill body manufacturer torque and seating procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before tip removal or installation. Inspect the insert pocket and locating features for chips or debris before seating the new tip. Follow the drill body manufacturer guidelines for clamping torque and confirm correct seating before resuming cuts.
