Built around the KTFS series architecture, this drill accepts a solid carbide tip with an HPG insert geometry and an AlTiN coating applied via PVD process. The 143-degree included point angle is suited for work in harder materials where a more aggressive point geometry is required. The tip seat size is F, and the drill does not feature through-coolant capability. At 0.02844 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight tool intended for precision drilling operations performed by machinists and CNC setup technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis replaceable tip drill is used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines for drilling operations in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. The KCP15A grade designation indicates a PVD-coated carbide substrate optimized for these material classes. The KTFS series design allows the solid carbide tip to be replaced independently of the shank body, reducing tooling cost per hole when tips wear. Typical installations involve production machining environments where repeatability and tool life are critical factors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide tip with KCP15A grade for wear resistance in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating applied by PVD process for heat and oxidation resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHPG insert geometry with F seat size for precise tip seating and repeatability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e143-degree included drill point angle suited for harder workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaceable tip design reduces total tooling cost compared to solid-shank drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.02844 pounds for use in standard tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replaceable tip for KTFS series drill bodies accepting an F seat size.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the carbide tip. Use the correct torque wrench and manufacturer-specified tightening procedure for KTFS series tip seats to avoid cracking the carbide insert. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before installing a new tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8mm (0.3150 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 143 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 143 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTip Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCP15A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\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\u003eInsert Seat Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KTFS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.59 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.57 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.57 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02844 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\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: 6388596\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743122555186,"sku":"6388596","price":156.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6347f7cd35a09a3bd394746d06feef03_313a3e8b-9f42-408b-a9ea-0ea64d228fe4.jpg?v=1788842941","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-6388596-carbide-replaceable-tip-drill-8mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
