Kyocera TKC89002 Indexable Drill Insert WCMX06M1 PR1230

Product Description

The KYOCERA TKC89002 is a solid carbide indexable drill insert designed for use in indexable drilling and coredrilling operations. Carrying the WCMX insert style and manufacturer grade PR1230, this insert features a PVD coating process over a solid carbide substrate for improved wear resistance and edge retention in steel machining applications. The inscribed circle measures 3/8 inches (0.3750 inches), the thickness is 5/32 inches (0.1563 inches), and the corner radius is 1/32 inches. It is configured for right-hand cutting with a positive rake and a 7-degree relief angle. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this insert as a replaceable cutting element in compatible indexable drill bodies.

This insert is intended for use in steel workpiece materials (ISO material code P) and is suited to both production drilling and maintenance machining environments. It belongs to the Holeshot Drill and Coremaster Coredrill series, making it applicable in CNC turning centers and machining centers where indexable drilling tools are used. The M1 chipbreaker geometry supports chip control during through-hole and blind-hole drilling. The ANSI code for this insert is WCMX06T308-M1 PR1230 and the ISO code is WCMX06T308M1, which can be used to cross-reference compatible tool holders and drill bodies.

Key Features

• Solid carbide substrate with PVD coating for wear resistance in steel applications
• PR1230 grade optimized for ISO P (steel) workpiece materials
• WCMX insert style with 80-degree trigon shape and positive rake geometry
• M1 chipbreaker for effective chip control in drilling operations
• Right-hand cutting direction with 7-degree relief angle
• ANSI and ISO compliant geometry for broad tool holder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in indexable drill bodies and coredrilling systems within the Holeshot Drill and Coremaster Coredrill series. Compatible tool holders should accept WCMX06 series inserts. Cross-reference using ANSI code WCMX06T308-M1 PR1230 or ISO code WCMX06T308M1 when selecting a mating drill body.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians following the drill body manufacturer's torque and clamping specifications for WCMX-style inserts. Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Handle carbide inserts with care to avoid chipping the cutting edge. Verify insert seating and clamp screw torque before resuming cutting operations.
