Kennametal 1937562 Boring Insert WPGT1510UF KC5010 Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1937562 is a solid carbide boring insert in the WPGT style, designed for precision internal turning and boring operations on CNC and manual lathes. Manufactured from micrograin carbide and coated with Titanium Nitride (TiN) via PVD process, this insert carries the KC5010 grade designation. It features an 80-degree trigon shape with an 11-degree relief angle and a 0.004-inch corner radius. The UF chipbreaker geometry promotes smooth chip evacuation during light to medium finishing passes. This insert is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals working with boring bars and insert toolholders in metalcutting applications.

The 1937562 is suited for boring and internal turning on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a light finishing geometry is required. The WPGT insert style and 3/16-inch inscribed circle size make it compatible with standard WPGT-style toolholders used in production machining, job shop work, and precision boring applications. The TiN coating extends tool life in applications where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are priorities.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide substrate for edge strength and wear resistance
• TiN coating applied via PVD process for improved surface hardness and tool life
• KC5010 manufacturer grade optimized for finishing and light cutting applications
• UF chipbreaker geometry designed for smooth chip control in finishing passes
• 80-degree trigon (WPGT) shape with 11-degree relief angle for clearance in bores
• 0.004-inch corner radius suitable for tight-tolerance finish boring

Compatibility

Designed for use in WPGT-style insert toolholders and boring bars that accept a 3/16-inch inscribed circle trigon insert with a 0.085-inch hole diameter. Confirm toolholder specifications against insert dimensions before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key for the clamping screw as specified by the toolholder manufacturer — do not overtighten, as micrograin carbide inserts are brittle and can fracture under excessive clamping force. Verify insert seating and edge condition before resuming cuts.
