Iscar 5509560 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.343 in

Product Description

The ISCAR 5509560 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill designed for precision hole-making in demanding metalworking applications. Built to ICP-2M series specifications, this drill features a 0.343-inch cutting diameter and a 140-degree included angle at the drill point. The TiAlN coating is applied via PVD process, providing thermal resistance and wear protection during high-speed drilling. With a double-margin point geometry and slow spiral flute design, it delivers stable cutting action and accurate entry in materials that challenge standard tooling. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in production environments will find this tip dimensionally consistent with ISO 13399 standards.

This replaceable tip drill is intended for drilling operations in steel as its primary workpiece material. Secondary workpiece materials include stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials. The ICP-2M series design targets production drilling scenarios where tip replacement extends tool body life and reduces per-hole tooling cost. It is suited for use in machining centers and CNC lathes where controlled hole entry and exit are required.

Key Features

• 0.343-inch cutting diameter with double-margin point for bore accuracy and stability
• 140-degree drill point angle optimized for a wide range of metallic workpieces
• TiAlN PVD coating provides heat and wear resistance in interrupted and continuous cuts
• Solid carbide submicron-grade substrate (IC908) for extended edge life
• Slow spiral flute geometry supports chip evacuation in steel and stainless steel
• Web-thinned geometry reduces thrust force at entry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replaceable tip for ICP-2M series drill bodies accepting insert seat size 8. Conforms to ISO 13399 tooling data standards. ISO number ICP 087-2M.

Installation Notes

Installation of replaceable carbide drill tips should be performed by qualified machinists with the spindle fully stopped and machine power locked out. Use the manufacturer-specified torque tool or wrench for the twist-lock holding method to avoid overtightening or damaging the seating surface. Inspect the drill body seat for chips or debris before installing a new tip. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and machine tool manufacturer guidelines during setup.
