Seco 02445829 Replaceable-tip Drill SD103 Weldon Flat

Product Description

The SECO 02445829 is a replaceable-tip drill from the SD103 series, designed for precision holemaking in metalworking and machining applications. It accepts SD100-style inserts and delivers a maximum drill depth of 1.97 inches at a 3xD depth-to-diameter ratio. The 5/8 inch Weldon Flat shank provides positive rotational engagement in compatible toolholders. Through-coolant capability channels fluid directly to the cutting zone, improving chip evacuation and tool life. With an overall length of 5.016 inches, this drill is installed by machinists and toolroom technicians on CNC machining centers and drill presses handling medium-diameter hole operations.

This drill covers a cutting diameter range of 14.00 to 14.99 mm (0.5512 to 0.5902 inches) and is suited for production holemaking in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where repeatable hole quality is required. The replaceable-tip design reduces downtime by allowing insert swaps without removing the drill body from the machine. It fits standard SD103-style toolholder configurations and is appropriate for both job-shop and high-volume production environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the drill body. Confirm the Weldon Flat setscrew is properly torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification for the holder in use. Verify coolant passages are clear and through-coolant pressure is within the machine tool's rated range before operation.
