Iscar 5600516 Milling Insert Adkt 1505PDR-HM IC50M

Product Description

The ISCAR 5600516 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying the ISO designation ADKT 1505PDR-HM in the IC50M uncoated grade. It is a parallelogram-shaped, single-sided insert with a positive rake geometry and a right-hand cutting orientation. Designed for the HELIMILL cutter series, this insert seats via screw-lock retention and delivers a honed cutting edge with a 15-degree relief angle. The 0.80 mm corner radius and two active cutting edges make it well-suited for productive face and shoulder milling operations on steel and stainless steel workpieces. Licensed machinists and CNC setup technicians are the primary installers.

This insert is engineered for milling steel and stainless steel — ISO material groups P and M — in both roughing and finishing passes where a positive-rake, uncoated carbide grade is appropriate. Compatible cutter series include ETS, FTS, ADK, and E90 platform toolholders. The insert size code 1505 and ANSI code ADKT 1505 PD-R-HM IC50M allow direct cross-reference when specifying or ordering replacements for existing HELIMILL setups.

Key Features

• Solid carbide IC50M grade, bright uncoated finish for steel and stainless steel applications
• Positive rake geometry with 15-degree relief angle reduces cutting forces
• Honed cutting edge style promotes edge stability and consistent surface finish
• Maximum depth of cut: 0.4720 inches; effective cutting edge length: 0.5410 inches
• Right-hand, single-sided insert with two cutting edges per insert
• Screw-lock holding method ensures rigid, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders
• Complies with ANSI and ISO 13399 standards for direct catalog cross-reference

Compatibility

Designed for use with HELIMILL-platform cutter bodies in the ETS, FTS, ADK, and E90 series that accept ADKT 1505 style inserts. Primary workpiece materials are steel and stainless steel (ISO P and M groups).

Installation Notes

Insert installation and replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician with the machine in a safe, locked-out state. Use the correct torx or hex key specified by the toolholder manufacturer when tightening the clamping screw — do not overtighten, as this can crack the carbide body. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before seating a new insert. Handle carbide inserts with care to avoid chipping the cutting edges prior to use.
