Komet 1082320801 Indexable Drill Insert WOEXW2901 BK72

Product Description

The KOMET 1082320801 is a solid carbide coated indexable drill insert designed for holemaking applications in indexable drilling systems. This insert carries the WOEXW2901 insert geometry in the BK72 grade, a coated carbide grade suited for demanding drilling operations. The 84-degree trigon form, 12 mm inscribed circle, and 0.4 mm corner radius define its cutting geometry, while the 0.189-inch thickness provides the structural rigidity needed for consistent, repeatable hole quality. It is specified and installed by machinists and tooling technicians in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is used in indexable drill bodies that accept the WOEXW2901 seat geometry. Typical applications include through-hole and blind-hole drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials across CNC machining centers and turning centers. The BK72 coated carbide grade is selected for applications where wear resistance and cutting-edge durability are priorities. This product is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with BK72 coating for wear resistance
• WOEXW2901 geometry for compatibility with matching indexable drill bodies
• 12 mm inscribed circle defining the effective cutting diameter coverage
• 0.189-inch insert thickness for rigidity under drilling loads
• 0.4 mm corner radius for controlled cutting-edge engagement
• 84-degree trigon form for holemaking insert seating geometry

Compatibility

Designed for use in indexable drill bodies that accept the WOEXW2901 insert seat geometry. Confirm seat geometry, pocket dimensions, and grade requirements against the drill body manufacturer specifications before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing any insert. Use the correct torx or hex key as specified by the drill body manufacturer when torquing the clamping screw - do not over-torque or substitute fasteners. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating a new insert to ensure full, flat contact at the seating surfaces.
