Indexable Insert Drill Body U12TM — 10 mm, 16 mm shank (Teknik Makina)

The Indexable Insert Drill Body U12TM is a compact drilling solution for precision small-hole work, designed to accept standard indexable inserts for efficient metalworking applications.

• 10 mm nominal diameter for tight holes
• Compatible with XCMT 050204 inserts
• 16 mm shank for secure clamping
• 30 mm cutting length for controlled depth

Consistent hole quality for serial production

The U12TM is engineered for stable machining in repetitive drilling operations. With a 10 mm nominal diameter and 30 mm cutting length, the tool provides a predictable cutting engagement that supports consistent cycle times and reduces scrap. The indexable-insert concept separates the economics of the cutting edge from the body: when an insert reaches its service life, only the insert is changed, which lowers long-term tooling costs and keeps machining downtime to a minimum. This focus on predictable output and rapid servicing suits workshop and small-series production alike.

Rigidity and clamping reliability for accurate positioning

A 16 mm shank and an overall length of 90 mm combine to give a balanced tool geometry that minimises chatter and runout in most standard drilling set-ups. The relatively low mass of 0.109 kg means reduced spindle load while maintaining the stiffness required for true-to-diameter holes. The 45 mm shank engagement length supports secure clamping in standard collets and holders; the result is improved repeatability and fewer rework cycles through better positional accuracy.

Economical insert system and simplified maintenance

This drill body is specified for XCMT 050204 inserts and is compatible with inserts from Korloy, enabling access to widely available, industry-standard cutting grades. Indexable inserts deliver the practical benefit of instant edge renewal — a worn corner is replaced in seconds without regrinding — which reduces overall tooling expenditure and keeps machines running. For buyers seeking predictable running costs, the separation of body and insert is a rational, cost-conscious choice that supports continuous production.

Easy integration into tooling inventories

With the unambiguous SKU U12TM and standardised interface dimensions, this drill body fits into common tooling systems and procurement workflows. The compact overall length and standard shank diameter ease storage and handling, simplifying stock planning for maintenance and production teams. As a documented component with clear insert compatibility, it supports efficient spare-part management and rapid replacement cycles in the workshop environment.

FAQ

Which insert type is required for this drill body?
The U12TM drill body is designed for XCMT 050204 indexable inserts; Korloy grades are a listed match for reliable performance.

How does the shank size affect machining stability?
The 16 mm shank provides sufficient clamping engagement for typical toolholders, increasing rigidity and reducing runout compared with undersized shanks in similar-length tools.

What are the key dimensions to check when replacing this tool in a holder?
Check the 16 mm shank diameter, the 90 mm overall length and the 45 mm shank engagement length to ensure correct seating and clamping in the holder.

Can inserts be replaced on the machine or is removal required?
Indexable inserts for this drill body are replaced directly on the tool body; the process is quick and avoids the need for body removal from the machine in most maintenance routines.

Is the U12TM suitable for stock management in a production environment?
Yes, the clear SKU (U12TM), standardised insert type and compact footprint make this drill body straightforward to stock and rotate as part of a production tooling strategy.
