Kennametal 1937563 Boring Insert WPGT15105UF KC5010

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1937563 is a solid carbide boring insert designed for precision internal turning and boring operations on CNC and manual lathes. Manufactured to WPGT15105UF geometry with a KC5010 micrograin carbide grade, this insert features a titanium nitride (TiN) coating applied via PVD process, which improves surface hardness and wear resistance. The 80-degree trigon shape provides a strong cutting edge, while the 11-degree relief angle reduces friction at the workpiece interface. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert in compatible boring bars and toolholders for tight-tolerance internal diameter work across production and job-shop environments.

This insert is suited for light finishing and semi-finishing boring passes where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are priorities. The UF chipbreaker geometry is optimized for fine cuts at lower feed rates, making it appropriate for finishing bores in steel, alloy steel, and similar ferrous materials. The KC5010 PVD-TiN coating supports consistent performance in applications requiring sharp edges and low cutting forces. It is sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• WPGT insert style with 80-degree trigon included angle for strong, versatile cutting geometry
• KC5010 micrograin solid carbide substrate for rigidity and edge integrity
• PVD titanium nitride coating for enhanced wear resistance and surface hardness
• UF chipbreaker designed for fine finishing passes at reduced feed rates
• 11-degree relief angle reduces rubbing and heat buildup at the cutting interface
• 0.008-inch corner radius for controlled surface finish on finished bores

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct equivalent boring insert for toolholders and boring bars accepting WPGT-style inserts with a 3/16-inch inscribed circle and 1/16-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the control placed in an e-stop or lockout state before seating or replacing any insert. Use the correct insert screw torque driver specified by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the insert without cracking the carbide substrate. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping mechanism for wear or debris before installation to ensure proper seating and runout control.
