Kennametal 4047843 Indexable Drill Insert

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 4047843 is an indexable drill insert designed for use in indexable insert drills used in metal cutting and machining operations. Indexable inserts are replaceable cutting tips that mount into a compatible drill body, allowing the cutting edge to be rotated or replaced without discarding the entire tool. This insert is suited for production machining environments where consistent hole quality and repeatable tool life are required. Licensed machinists and tooling technicians are the typical end users for this type of cutting insert.

Indexable drill inserts of this type are used in CNC machining centers, horizontal boring mills, and manual lathes equipped with driven tooling. They are common in job shops and production facilities working with steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other machinable alloys. The insert mounts into a designated seat in the drill body and is secured by a clamping screw or wedge mechanism specific to the tool holder design.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician familiar with indexable cutting tool systems. Before replacing an insert, ensure the machine is fully powered down, locked out, and the spindle is secured per your facility lockout/tagout procedure. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw specified by the drill body manufacturer when seating the insert. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or damage before installing a new insert.
