Seco 00059691 Carbide Replaceable Tip Drill 18.80mm SD100

Product Description

The SECO 00059691 is a carbide replaceable tip drill designed for high-productivity hole-making in steel and similar ferrous workpiece materials. It features a solid carbide tip with a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, delivering excellent wear resistance and heat tolerance at the cutting edge. The 140-degree included point angle promotes self-centering and reduces thrust load on entry. At 18.80mm in diameter with a tip height of 14.40mm (0.5669 inches), this drill is part of the established SD100 series and is intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals in CNC drilling operations.

This drill is suited for production drilling in steel (ISO P workpiece material code) in both vertical machining centers and horizontal CNC platforms. The through-coolant design directs cutting fluid directly to the tip, supporting chip evacuation and thermal management during deep-hole and high-feed drilling cycles. The SD100 series replaceable tip format allows tip changes at the machine without removing the drill body, reducing downtime in high-volume environments. This tool is appropriate for shops running medium to high production volumes where tool change efficiency and consistent hole quality are priorities.

Key Features

• Solid carbide tip with TiAlN PVD coating for wear and heat resistance
• 140-degree included point angle for self-centering and reduced entry thrust
• Through-coolant capability for chip evacuation and tip cooling
• Replaceable tip design (SD100 series) enables fast tip swaps without removing the drill body
• Insert geometry code P optimized for steel workpiece materials
• 18.80mm cutting diameter with 14.40mm tip height

Compatibility

Designed as a replaceable tip insert for SD100 series drill bodies. Compatible drill bodies must match the 18.80mm diameter and SD100 system interface. Verify body series and diameter before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation of replaceable carbide drill tips should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the drill body is fully secured in the spindle and the machine is powered down or in a safe tool-change state before seating or removing the tip. Use the manufacturer-specified torque wrench and clamping hardware for the SD100 system interface — do not use improvised tools that may damage the seating surface. Confirm through-coolant passages are clear and unobstructed before returning the tool to service.
