Komet 1082230501 Indexable Drill Insert SOEXW8301 BK8425

Product Description

The KOMET 1082230501 is a solid carbide coated indexable drill insert designed for holemaking operations in indexable cutting tool systems. Designated under the SOEXW8301 insert geometry and BK8425 grade, this square insert features a 5.56 mm inscribed circle, a thickness of 0.0937 inches, and a 0.4 mm corner radius. The BK8425 coating grade is engineered for wear resistance in demanding drilling applications. This insert is sold individually and is intended for use by machinists and tooling specialists working with indexable insert drill bodies.

This insert is suited for production drilling environments where indexable tooling is preferred over solid-body drills for cost-effective edge replacement. The SOEXW8301 geometry and square form factor make it appropriate for use in compatible KOMET indexable drill systems operating in typical metal-cutting applications across job shop and production machining settings.
