Komet 1082168603 Indexable Drill Insert WOEXW2903 BK6425

Product Description

The KOMET 1082168603 is a solid carbide coated indexable drill insert designed for holemaking operations in metal cutting and machining applications. Carrying the insert designation WOEXW2903 in grade BK6425, this insert features a 10 mm inscribed circle, a thickness of 0.1496 inches, a 0.8 mm corner radius, and an 84-degree trigon geometry. These characteristics make it suited for precision drilling in automated and manual machine tool setups where insert-to-insert consistency is critical. It is installed by machinists and tooling technicians servicing indexable drill bodies requiring WOEX-style inserts.

This insert is used in indexable drill tooling systems where replaceable carbide inserts are seated in a drill body rather than using a solid drill. Typical applications include CNC turning centers, machining centers, and drill presses running ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The BK6425 grade with solid carbide coated construction is appropriate for production drilling environments where tool life and hole quality are primary concerns. Minimum order quantity is 10 pieces; package quantity is 1.

Key Features

• Solid carbide coated construction for extended wear resistance in production drilling
• WOEXW2903 insert form with 84-degree trigon geometry for stable cutting action
• 10 mm inscribed circle for precise seating in compatible drill bodies
• 0.8 mm corner radius to balance edge strength and surface finish
• BK6425 grade designation for consistent performance identification and reordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement indexable drill insert for holemaking drill bodies accepting WOEX-style inserts with a 10 mm inscribed circle and 84-degree trigon geometry.

Installation Notes

Indexable drill inserts are seated and torqued into drill body pockets by machinists or tooling technicians; always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the manufacturer-specified torx or hex key for the insert clamping screw to avoid stripping the pocket. Inspect the insert pocket seating surface for chips or damage before installing a new insert. Handle carbide inserts carefully to avoid edge chipping prior to use.
