Kennametal 2036882 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 18mm

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 2036882 is a solid carbide replaceable tip drill in the KSEM series, designed for precision drilling in steel and similar ferrous workpiece materials. The tip carries a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering heat resistance and extended wear life in production drilling environments. The included angle is 140 degrees and the cutting diameter is 18mm (0.7087 inches). The helical, regular-spiral flute geometry and 2-flute, 2-margin configuration promote chip evacuation and bore quality. This insert is installed by machining professionals and toolroom technicians as a field-replaceable cutting component, reducing downtime versus full drill replacement.

The 2036882 tip fits KSEM-series replaceable tip drill bodies using insert seat size 1 and is secured with a clamp-style holding method. It is suited for straight-entry drilling operations as well as inclined exit drilling and stacked-plate drilling applications. The HP insert geometry is optimized for steel cutting (ISO material code P). This tip is a standard-point style with a flute length of 9mm and an overall projection of 0.3544 inches, making it appropriate for moderate-depth drilling passes in CNC machining centers and production drill presses.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with fine grain material grade for rigidity and edge retention
• TiAlN PVD coating for thermal resistance during high-speed steel drilling
• 140-degree included angle for reduced thrust and self-centering entry
• 2-flute, 2-margin helical geometry supports chip flow and bore finish
• Clamp-held replaceable tip design minimizes changeover time at the spindle
• Rated for inclined exit and stacked-plate drilling in addition to standard through-drilling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replaceable tip for KSEM-series drill bodies using insert seat size 1. Compatible system ISO number is KSEM1800HPM. Verify seat size and series designation on the drill body before ordering.

Installation Notes

Replaceable carbide drill tips of this type are installed and serviced by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the spindle before removing or seating the tip. Use the manufacturer-specified torque wrench or clamping tool for the KSEM seat to avoid tip movement or seat damage. Do not exceed the drill body's rated speed and feed parameters for the workpiece material.
