Iscar 5509574 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 0.437in ICP-2M

Product Description

The ISCAR 5509574 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill in the ICP-2M series, designed for precision drilling in demanding metal-cutting applications. The tip features a 140-degree included angle with a double-margin point geometry and a slow spiral flute configuration. A TiAlN coating applied via PVD process provides heat and wear resistance during high-speed drilling operations. The insert geometry is rated P with an ISO 13399-compliant ISO number of ICP 111-2M. This part is installed by machinists and tooling professionals in CNC and manual drilling operations where consistent hole quality and tip replaceability are required.

This replaceable drill tip fits systems requiring a 0.437-inch cutting diameter with a 0.26-inch functional height and 0.26-inch overall projection. The web-thinned geometry reduces entry force and improves chip evacuation. Primary workpiece material is steel, with secondary compatibility ratings for stainless steel, cast iron, super-alloys, titanium, and hard materials. The ICP-2M series uses a twist-style insert holding method and a size 11 insert seat. Applications are limited to drilling operations.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip with IC908 submicron grade for extended tool life in steel and hard materials
• TiAlN coating via PVD process for thermal resistance and reduced built-up edge
• 140-degree included angle with double-margin point for accurate hole positioning and finish
• Web-thinned geometry reduces thrust load on entry and improves chip flow
• Slow spiral flute design suited for controlled chip evacuation in short-hole drilling
• ISO 13399 compliant — ICP 111-2M ISO designation for standardized tooling data

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replaceable tip for ICP-2M series drill bodies requiring a size 11 insert seat and a 0.437-inch cutting diameter tip.

Installation Notes

Installation of replaceable drill tips should be performed by qualified tooling or machining professionals with the machine fully powered down and spindle locked. Use the manufacturer-specified torque tool for the twist-style insert seat to ensure proper seating without over-tightening. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or damage before installing a new tip. Follow applicable shop safety and machine tool codes when handling carbide inserts.
