Mitsubishi 359902 Replaceable Drill Tip Solid Carbide VP15TF

Product Description

The MITSUBISHI 359902 is a replaceable drill tip designed for use with compatible indexable drill bodies in metal cutting and precision machining operations. Manufactured from solid carbide in grade VP15TF, this tip delivers consistent cutting performance in demanding hole-making applications. The functional length measures 0.159 inches, making it suited to shallow-depth indexable drilling systems where tip replacement extends tool body life without full tool replacement. Installation and replacement are handled by machinists and tooling technicians on CNC machining centers or drill presses.

This replaceable tip is used in precision metalworking environments including job shops, aerospace component machining, and general manufacturing where indexable drilling systems are standard. It is designed to be swapped out at end of tool life, reducing downtime compared to full solid-drill replacement. The VP15TF carbide grade is a general-purpose coated grade suited to a range of ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials at moderate to high cutting speeds.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in metal cutting
• VP15TF manufacturer grade — coated carbide for extended tool life
• 0.159 inch functional length for indexable shallow-hole drilling systems
• Replaceable tip format reduces tooling cost per hole over time
• Lightweight at 0.04 pounds for easy handling during tip changes

Compatibility

Designed as a replaceable indexable drill tip for compatible MITSUBISHI indexable drill body systems that accept this tip geometry and grade. Verify tip-to-body interface specifications before ordering to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the drill body is fully removed from the spindle and the machine is powered down and locked out before replacing the tip. Use the manufacturer-specified torque wrench and clamping screw to seat the tip securely — follow the drill body documentation for the correct seating procedure. Do not use the tool if the tip shows chipping, cracking, or improper seating.
