Kennametal 6389482 Kentip Fs Indexable Drill Body 12xd

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 6389482 is a KenTIP FS series indexable drill body designed for deep-hole drilling applications in metal cutting operations. Built around a 16.00 mm shank diameter and a 12xD drill depth-to-diameter ratio, this tool body accepts interchangeable KenTIP FS insert tips, allowing the cutting head to be replaced without removing the body from the spindle. The overall length is 204 mm (approximately 8.03 inches), with a flute length of 142.10 mm (5.59 inches) and a shank length of 48.00 mm (1.89 inches). It is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals on CNC machining centers and lathes configured for deep-hole drilling cycles.

This drill body is suited for deep-bore operations where a 12xD depth ratio is required in production or job-shop environments. The KenTIP FS toolholder style (KTFS) is optimized for through-coolant delivery, making it appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous material removal where chip evacuation and heat management are critical. It fits machine spindles accepting 16.00 mm straight-shank tooling and is packaged individually with a minimum order quantity of one unit.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the CNC program is in a safe state before mounting or removing the drill body. Verify shank seating and retention per the machine tool manufacturer's torque specifications for the collet or chuck style in use. Confirm through-coolant pressure and flow settings are appropriate for the selected insert tip before beginning the drilling cycle.
