Identified by ISO number KSEMP1500HPGM, this tip carries the KC7315 manufacturer grade with a fine grain carbide substrate and a PVD-applied TiAlN coating. The cutting diameter is 15mm (0.5906 inches) with a 140-degree included drill point angle and a standard point type. The HPG insert geometry and helical flute configuration are engineered for controlled chip formation during through-hole and blind-hole drilling operations. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and metalworking tradespeople familiar with indexable tooling will recognize this as a drop-in tip replacement rather than a full drill body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis replaceable tip is suited for drilling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium, corresponding to ISO workpiece material codes P, M, K, N, and S. It installs into compatible KSEM Plus drill bodies via a clamp-style insert holding method. The tip has a flute length of 7mm and an overall projection of 0.2953 inches. This configuration is typical in production machining environments, job shops, and maintenance applications where quick tip replacement reduces downtime compared to regrinding solid drills. Coolant-through capability is not included in this insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide fine grain substrate with KC7315 grade for wear resistance in multi-material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVD TiAlN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and superalloy materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140-degree included drill point angle with HPG geometry for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelical flute with regular spiral promotes consistent chip flow in 2-flute configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClamp-style insert holding method for repeatable tip indexing without full drill replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCovers ISO material codes P, M, K, N, and S — broad workpiece material range in a single insert grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replaceable tip for the KSEM Plus modular drill body system, insert seat size A.

De-energize the machine spindle and verify zero-energy state before replacing the tip. Inspect the insert seat on the drill body for chips, debris, or wear before seating the new tip; a contaminated or damaged seat will affect runout and hole quality. Follow the drill body manufacturer torque specifications for the clamping screw — do not over-torque or substitute fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSEMP1500HPGM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC7315\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine Grain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15mm (0.5906 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Geometry\u003c\/strong\u003e: HPG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Seat Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2953 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: P, M, K, N, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSEM Plus\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3690479\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749655871794,"sku":"3690479","price":211.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1a667daf32df08f0648c79b8789899b4.jpg?v=1788908855","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-3690479-carbide-tip-drill-insert-15mm-ksem","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
