Identified by ISO number KSEMP1800HPGM, this insert features an 18mm (0.7087 inch) cutting diameter, a 140-degree drill point angle, and a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process. The fine-grain solid carbide substrate carries the KC7315 manufacturer grade, delivering wear resistance and edge integrity in demanding metal-cutting applications. It installs via clamp-style insert holding into compatible KSEM Plus drill bodies. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in production drilling environments are the primary users of this insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis replaceable tip insert is suited for drilling operations in a wide range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium, corresponding to ISO material codes P, M, K, N, and S. The HPG insert geometry supports consistent chip formation across these material groups. With a flute length of 9mm and a helical, regular-spiral flute type, it is intended for moderate-depth drilling passes in both horizontal and vertical machining center setups. It is sold individually and is a direct component of the KSEM Plus replaceable tip drilling platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18mm cutting diameter (0.7087 inch) with 140-degree standard drill point angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction, fine-grain substrate, KC7315 grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating via PVD process for elevated-temperature wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHPG insert geometry for reliable chip control across multiple material groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute helical configuration with regular spiral for balanced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClamp-style retention within KSEM Plus modular drill body system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with KSEM Plus series modular drill bodies accepting insert seat size 1 at 18mm diameter.

The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the tool de-energized before insert removal or installation. Use the manufacturer-specified torx or clamp key for proper seating — do not overtighten by hand or with improvised tools. Verify insert seating and runout before returning the tool to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSEMP1800HPGM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC7315\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18mm (0.7087 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees\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\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\u003eInsert Geometry\u003c\/strong\u003e: HPG\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunctional Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3544 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Seat Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSEM Plus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Drilling\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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 3690482\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750813466930,"sku":"3690482","price":238.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a7e3ee4ccf88f85a04b8047598632136.jpg?v=1788919940","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-3690482-carbide-tip-drill-insert-18mm-kc7315","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
