Sandvik Coromant 7549896 Indexable Drill Insert DS20L5

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 7549896 is a solid carbide indexable drill insert designed for use with compatible modular and indexable drill bodies in metalcutting operations. This insert carries the DS20L5 style designation and manufacturer grade 1344, with a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process for enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. The inscribed circle measures 6.02 mm and the corner radius is 0.35 mm, making it suited for precision drilling applications where edge geometry and dimensional consistency are critical. It is installed and replaced by machinists and tooling technicians in CNC and manual machining environments.

This insert is intended for use in indexable drilling systems where DS20-style inserts are specified. The irregular shape and L5 chipbreaker geometry are optimized for chip control during drilling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Insert size designation is 0104. It is commonly found in production machining, job shop, and maintenance environments handling steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials. Each unit is packaged individually.

Key Features

• 6.02 mm inscribed circle for precise fitment in compatible drill bodies
• 0.35 mm corner radius for controlled edge geometry
• Irregular shape profile per DS20 specification, insert size 0104
• Manufacturer grade 1344 for consistent cutting performance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement insert for indexable drill systems requiring DS20L5-style solid carbide inserts with a 6.02 mm inscribed circle and 0104 insert size designation.

Installation Notes

Indexable drill inserts are seated and secured by qualified machinists or tooling technicians following the drill body manufacturer torque and clamping procedures. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or damage before installing a new insert. Handle carbide inserts carefully to avoid chipping the cutting edge prior to use.
