Osg 7823073 Indexable Drill Insert Xcmt XP9020 Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 7823073 is a solid carbide indexable drill insert designed for use in indexable-style drilling systems where repeatable cutting geometry and tool life are critical. Manufactured to the XCMT insert style with an XP9020 grade designation, this insert features a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, which provides thermal resistance and wear protection during high-speed drilling operations. The square insert shape paired with an 8-degree relief angle promotes clean chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. A 1.2 mm corner radius helps distribute load at the cutting edge. Licensed machinists and toolroom professionals install these inserts as replaceable cutting elements within compatible indexable drill bodies.

This insert is suited for metalworking and machining applications in both production and job-shop environments. It is typically used in CNC drilling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a TiAlN-coated carbide grade offers the right balance of hardness and toughness. The XCMT insert style and XP9020 grade make it appropriate for medium to high cutting speeds. It is sold individually and is intended as a direct replacement or replenishment insert for existing tooling setups that use the XCMT format.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the drill body pocket and clamping mechanism are clean and free of chips before seating the insert. Torque the clamping screw to the tool body manufacturer's specification using the appropriate Torx or hex key. Always index or replace worn inserts before resuming cutting operations to prevent tool body damage.
