Kennametal 6388559 Replaceable Drill Tip 7.00mm KCP15A

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 6388559 is a replaceable drill tip designed for use with compatible KTFSS-series modular drill bodies. Built from fine-grain solid carbide and coated with AlTiN via a PVD process, this tip delivers consistent cutting performance in demanding metal-removal applications. The 180-degree point angle and HPG insert geometry promote accurate hole entry and reduced thrust force. The tip measures 0.2638 inches (7.00 mm) in cutting diameter with a functional length of 0.1319 inches and an overall projection of 0.1913 inches. A clamp-style holding method secures the tip in the seat. Installation requires no coolant-through configuration.

This replaceable drill tip is suited for drilling operations in steel and cast iron workpieces, including inclined-exit drilling and stacked-plate drilling applications. The KTFSS series design targets production environments where tip replacement speed and positional repeatability matter. The seat size C interface mates with the corresponding KTFSS drill body series. Two helical flutes with a two-margin, no-coolant configuration support chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole drilling on CNC machining centers and drill presses.

Key Features

• Solid carbide, fine-grain tip construction for wear resistance in steel and cast iron
• AlTiN coating applied via PVD process for heat resistance and extended tool life
• 180-degree included angle with HPG geometry for accurate hole entry
• Two helical flutes with regular spiral and two-margin design for controlled chip flow
• Clamp-style insert holding with seat size C interface for repeatable tip seating
• Rated for inclined-exit and stacked-plate drilling applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with KTFSS-series modular drill bodies accepting a seat size C insert. The ISO number for this tip is KTFSS06700HPGM. Verify seat size and series compatibility with the drill body before ordering.

Installation Notes

This tip is installed and removed by a machinist or tooling technician using the appropriate KTFSS torx or clamp key specified by the drill body manufacturer. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before removing or seating the drill tip. Inspect the insert seat for chips, debris, or wear before installing a new tip to ensure proper seating and runout. Follow the tool manufacturer's assembly procedure for clamp torque and tip orientation.
