Komet 1082230601 Indexable Drill Insert SOEXW8301 BK8425

Product Description

The KOMET 1082230601 is a solid carbide coated indexable drill insert designed for holemaking operations in indexable drilling systems. Carrying the SOEXW8301 insert geometry in the BK8425 grade, this square insert features a 6.35 mm inscribed circle and a 0.6 mm corner radius. The insert measures 0.1252 inches thick and is built for use in indexable drill bodies that accept this seat geometry. Machinists and tool-crib professionals in production and job-shop environments specify this insert for drilling applications that demand consistent tool life and repeatable hole quality.

This insert is suited for use in CNC machining centers, lathes with live tooling, and dedicated drilling machines where indexable insert drills are employed. The BK8425 grade coating is selected for its wear resistance in demanding cutting conditions. The SOEXW8301 geometry indicates the specific seat and cutting edge configuration required for proper seating in compatible KOMET drill bodies. This part is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.

Installation Notes

Indexable drill inserts are installed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. The machine spindle must be fully powered down and locked out before any insert change. Use the correct torx or hex key specified for the clamping screw torque on the drill body - refer to the KOMET tool body documentation for seating and clamping procedure. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.
