Kennametal 7002306 Replaceable Drill Tip 19.84mm 140deg

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 7002306 is a replaceable drill tip designed for use with compatible indexable drill bodies in demanding metal-cutting applications. Built from solid carbide with a fine-grain substrate and designated manufacturer grade KC7325, this tip delivers consistent performance in high-wear cutting environments. The 19.84 mm (0.7811 inch) cutting diameter and 140-degree drill point angle are suited for fast, stable entry and clean through-hole drilling. A PVD-applied dual coating of TiAlN and TiN provides thermal resistance and edge durability. Through-coolant capability is built in, supporting chip evacuation and tool life in deep-hole operations.

This drill tip is intended for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, covering ISO material codes P, M, K, and S. It fits insert seat size X and is identified by ISO number KTFST07813GTP within the KTFST series. Typical install scenarios include production drilling on CNC machining centers where replaceable-tip drills reduce downtime compared to solid drill replacement. The tip also supports inclined-exit drilling and stacked-plate drilling applications, extending its usefulness across varied fixturing setups.

Key Features

• Solid carbide fine-grain substrate with KC7325 grade for wear resistance in ferrous and exotic materials
• PVD dual coating — TiAlN and TiN — for high-temperature resistance and extended cutting life
• 140-degree point angle with standard point type and regular helical spiral flute geometry
• Through-coolant channels built into the tip for effective chip flushing and heat management
• 2-flute, 2-margin GTP insert geometry for balanced cutting forces and bore accuracy
• Clamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable tip seating in compatible drill bodies

Compatibility

Designed as a replaceable tip for KTFST-series indexable drill bodies accepting insert seat size X. ISO number KTFST07813GTP. Verify seat size and series compatibility with the drill body before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation of replaceable drill tips requires power-off and full machine lockout before tip exchange. Seat and clamping surfaces should be inspected and cleaned of chips or debris before seating the new tip to ensure proper contact and runout. Use the manufacturer-specified torque tool or clamp key for the KTFST seat; do not over-torque or substitute generic tools. Verify coolant-port alignment after installation before resuming cutting operations.
