Sumitomo 5L00W07 Replaceable-tip Drill 13.5-14.5mm

Product Description

The SUMITOMO 5L00W07 is a replaceable-tip drill body engineered for precision hole-making in metalworking and industrial machining applications. Built from steel, this drill accepts SMDT-style indexable inserts to deliver consistent bore diameters ranging from 13.5 mm (0.5315 inches) to 14.5 mm (0.5709 inches). It achieves a maximum drill depth of 4.961 inches, with an 8xD depth-to-diameter ratio suited for deeper drilling cycles without a dedicated deep-hole setup. Through-coolant capability channels cutting fluid directly to the tip, managing heat and chip evacuation in demanding operations. The overall length is 7.48 inches, with a 3/4-inch whistle notch shank for secure toolholder engagement.

This drill body is intended for use in CNC machining centers and turning centers where indexable-insert drills are preferred over solid-carbide tooling for cost-per-hole efficiency. The 8xD depth ratio makes it well suited for deep-hole drilling cycles in steel, cast iron, and similar workpiece materials. It is compatible with SMDH-style toolholders and is installed by machinists, toolroom technicians, and CNC setup personnel in production and job-shop environments. The whistle notch shank ensures positive rotational drive and axial positioning in the spindle or turret.

Key Features

• Replaceable SMDT indexable insert tip allows quick tip changes without removing the drill body from the machine
• Through-coolant design directs coolant to the cutting zone for improved chip evacuation and tool life
• 8xD depth-to-diameter ratio supports drilling up to 4.961 inches deep in a single setup
• 3/4-inch whistle notch shank provides secure, repeatable positioning in SMDH-style toolholders
• Covers a diameter range of 13.5 mm to 14.5 mm with appropriate SMDT insert selection
• Steel body construction balances rigidity and weight for stable high-feed drilling operations

Compatibility

Designed for use with SMDT-style replaceable-tip inserts and SMDH-series toolholders. Part of the SMD drill series.

Installation Notes

Installation and insert changes should be performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel with the machine spindle fully stopped and the machine in a locked-out, tagged-out state. Verify that the whistle notch shank seats fully and is properly torqued in the toolholder before resuming cutting operations. Confirm through-coolant supply lines are connected and flow is verified before engaging the cutting cycle. Consult the insert manufacturer torque specifications printed on the insert packaging when securing the SMDT tip to the body.
