Kennametal 5689648 Indexable Insert Drill 3xd Dfsp

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 5689648 is a 3xD indexable insert drill designed for general-purpose drilling in metal fabrication and machining applications. The body is constructed from steel and accepts two indexable inserts, allowing cutting edges to be rotated or replaced without removing the entire tool from the machine. It has a maximum drill depth of 1.875 inches and a nominal drill diameter of 0.6644 inches. The 3/4 inch Weldon flat and flange shank provides secure, repeatable clamping in compatible toolholders. Coolant is delivered through axial concentric and radial ports, keeping the cutting zone clear and extending insert life during continuous drilling cycles.

This drill is suited for CNC machining centers and turning centers in job shop, production, and maintenance-repair environments. The DFSP series is used in applications requiring consistent hole diameter and controlled chip evacuation at moderate depths. The 3xD depth-to-diameter ratio makes it appropriate for through-holes and blind holes in steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials. Machinists and tooling technicians handling production drilling programs are the primary users of this tool.

Key Features

• Maximum drill depth of 1.875 inches with a 3xD depth-to-diameter ratio
• Accepts two indexable inserts — compatible styles DFTX202. and SPGX0502.
• 3/4 inch Weldon flat and flange shank for rigid, repeatable toolholder engagement
• Through-coolant capable with axial concentric and radial coolant entry (code 3)
• Right-hand cutting direction; DFSP series body
• Coolant hole threads sized at 1/8-27 NPT on both shank end and body side
• Steel body construction for durability in general-purpose drilling applications

Compatibility

Compatible insert styles are DFTX and SPG; specific compatible insert designations are DFTX202. and SPGX0502., with insert size codes 2020.. and 0502.. respectively. Insert lock screw specification is M2-0.4x4.5 T6. This tool is designed for use within the KENNAMETAL DFSP drill series tooling system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician following the machine tool builder guidelines for toolholder torque and runout verification. Disconnect and lock out the machine before changing inserts or seating the drill body in the toolholder. Verify coolant passages are clear and that the correct insert style and size code are matched before cutting. Do not exceed the maximum drill depth or operating parameters published in the KENNAMETAL DFSP series tooling guide.
