Kennametal 1505180 Replaceable-tip Drill 22.23-22.73mm

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1505180 is a replaceable-tip drill body designed for high-productivity metal removal in demanding machining environments. Part of the KSEM series, it accepts KSEM0875 inserts at an insert seat size 4, allowing cutting tip replacement without discarding the body. The drill covers a diameter range of 22.23 to 22.73 mm (0.8752 to 0.8949 inches) with a maximum drilling depth of 120 mm (4.72 inches), delivering a 5xD depth-to-diameter ratio. Through-coolant capability is built in, supporting chip evacuation and extended insert life at higher feed rates. The 25.4 mm Weldon flat shank provides positive rotational drive in compatible toolholders. This body is installed and maintained by CNC machinists and toolroom technicians in production and job-shop settings.

The 1505180 drill body is suited for ferrous and non-ferrous metal drilling applications in vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers, and CNC turning centers with driven tooling. The 5xD depth ratio makes it appropriate for through-hole and blind-hole operations in medium to large workpieces where a standard 3xD drill cannot reach full depth. Through-coolant delivery at both the shank end and the body side supports high-pressure coolant systems. The Weldon flat shank interfaces with standard Weldon-style toolholders commonly found in production machining setups.

Key Features

• KSEM series replaceable-tip design — change inserts without replacing the full body, reducing tooling cost per hole
• Diameter range of 22.23 to 22.73 mm (0.8752 to 0.8949 inches) to accommodate insert-adjusted final diameters
• 5xD depth-to-diameter ratio with 120 mm maximum drill depth for deeper bore applications
• Through-coolant channels with NPT-threaded ports: 1/4-18 at the shank end and 1/8-27 at the body side
• 25.4 mm Weldon flat shank for positive, slip-resistant drive in standard Weldon toolholders
• Overall length of 244.48 mm (9.6252 inches) with a flute length of 148.59 mm (5.85 inches)

Compatibility

Compatible with KSEM0875 series replaceable drill tip inserts at insert seat size 4. Designed for use with Weldon flat shank toolholders sized for a 25.4 mm shank. Compatible insert style and seat size are specific to the KSEM product series.

Installation Notes

Installation and insert changes should be performed by qualified CNC machinists or toolroom personnel with the machine powered down and the spindle fully stopped. Ensure the Weldon flat is properly aligned and the toolholder setscrew is tightened to the toolholder manufacturer's specification before operation. Connect through-coolant lines to the appropriate NPT-threaded port for the machine configuration — shank end (1/4-18 NPT) for axial coolant delivery or body side (1/8-27 NPT) for lateral supply. Inspect the insert seat for debris or damage before seating a replacement KSEM0875 insert.
