Iscar 5605175 Milling Insert Adkt 1505 PDR-HM90 IC910

Product Description

The ISCAR 5605175 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying the ISO designation ADKT 1505 PDR-HM90 in manufacturer grade IC910. Designed for high-feed face and shoulder milling, this parallelogram-shaped, right-hand insert features an AlTiN PVD coating that resists heat and wear during high-speed cuts in steel and cast iron. It measures 0.616 inches in length, 0.38 inches wide, and 0.23 inches thick, with a maximum depth of cut of 0.472 inches. Two honed cutting edges and an 18-degree positive rake angle reduce cutting forces and extend tool life. The insert is secured by a screw-clamping method in compatible toolholders.

This insert is engineered for use in the HELIMILL HM90-15 cutter series and is suited to both roughing and semi-finishing operations on steel and cast iron workpieces. Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, and ramping in production machining environments such as job shops and manufacturing cells. The positive rake geometry and HM chip breaker design help manage chip evacuation at elevated feed rates. It is installed and changed by machinists, CNC operators, and tooling technicians working on vertical and horizontal machining centers.

Key Features

• AlTiN PVD coating provides thermal resistance and extended wear life in steel and cast iron applications
• Positive 18-degree rake angle and honed cutting edge style reduce cutting forces and improve surface finish
• Two cutting edges per insert maximize value per piece during indexing
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.472 inches supports both roughing and semi-finishing passes
• HM chip breaker geometry promotes reliable chip control at high feed rates
• Screw-clamping insert-holding method ensures secure, repeatable seating in the toolholder pocket

Compatibility

Designed for use with the ISCAR HELIMILL HM90-15 cutter series as identified by the cutter series compatibility code HM90-15. Conforms to ANSI code ADKT 1505PDR HM90 IC910 and ISO 13399 standards.

Installation Notes

Insert changes should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician with the machine powered down and spindle locked. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to seat and torque the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer specification found in the cutter body documentation. Inspect the pocket seating surface for chips or debris before installing the insert to ensure proper contact. Follow shop safety procedures and applicable machine guarding requirements when handling carbide inserts, as edges are sharp.
