Sumitomo 1AJV022 Indexable Drill Insert WDXT09G DL1500

Product Description

The SUMITOMO 1AJV022 is a solid carbide indexable drill insert designed for use with compatible indexable drill bodies in precision drilling operations. Manufactured to the WDXT09G insert style in grade DL1500, this coated carbide insert features a 9.00 mm (0.3543 inch) inscribed circle, a 0.1575-inch thickness, and a 0.0315-inch corner radius. The parallelogram shape and right-hand cutting direction suit a wide range of production drilling applications. The DL1500 grade coating provides wear resistance across multiple workpiece material categories, making this insert a versatile choice for shops running varied material types.

This insert is rated for universal primary workpiece material compatibility, covering material codes K, M, N, P, and S. Those categories span cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel, and heat-resistant superalloys. It is suited for CNC machining centers and drill press setups where indexable tooling is used to achieve consistent hole quality at production volumes. The G chipbreaker geometry supports chip control during drilling. This type of insert is typically installed and indexed by machinists or toolroom technicians in job shop, aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing environments.
