Kennametal 1522124 Indexable Insert Drill 1.1874in 4xd Dft

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1522124 is a DFT-series indexable insert drill designed for general-purpose hole-making in metal and industrial workpiece materials. The body is constructed from steel and accepts two DFT-style indexable inserts, allowing worn cutting edges to be replaced without removing the tool body from the machine. The drill delivers a 4xD depth-to-diameter ratio, reaching a maximum drill depth of 4.75 inches in a single pass. With a 1.1874-inch drill diameter and an overall length of 9.75 inches, this tool is suited for CNC machining centers and drilling applications where consistent, repeatable hole geometry is required.

This indexable insert drill is intended for production drilling operations in machine shop environments, including CNC turning centers, machining centers, and drill presses equipped to handle a 1.25-inch Weldon Flat or flange shank. It is classified as a general-purpose drilling tool and is appropriate for a range of common workpiece materials encountered in job shop and production settings. The coolant-through design supports through-spindle coolant delivery, improving chip evacuation and tool life at the cutting zone.

Key Features

• DFT-series indexable insert design accepts two DFT05T3 compatible inserts for quick edge replacement
• 4xD drill depth-to-diameter ratio reaches 4.75 inches maximum depth
• Coolant-through capability with axial concentric entry and 1/4-18 shank end coolant hole thread
• Weldon Flat and flange shank style provides positive drive and secure tool holding
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard spindle rotation
• Steel tool body construction for rigidity in general-purpose drilling applications

Compatibility

Compatible with DFT-style indexable inserts, insert style code DFT05T3, insert size code 05T3. Insert lock screw specification is M3-0.5x7.2 T9 drive. Designed for use with machine tool holders and spindles accommodating a 1.25-inch straight shank with Weldon Flat or flange configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine spindle at a complete stop and all energy sources locked out per applicable machine safety procedures. Ensure the shank is fully seated in the holder and that all insert screws are torqued according to the insert manufacturer specifications before initiating a cut. Coolant through-spindle connections should be verified leak-free before operation. Handle indexable inserts with care, as cutting edges are sharp.
