Solid drill U143TM (indexable-insert drill) by Teknik Makina — Ø 16 mm, 25 mm shank

The Solid drill U143TM is an indexable-insert drilling tool designed for demanding CNC holemaking where repeatability and quick insert changes are required

• Ø 16 mm cutting diameter
• 25 mm shank for secure clamping
• 48 mm cutting length for deeper holes
• Compatible with Korloy WCM inserts

High-performance drilling with measurable stability

The U143TM is engineered to deliver precise holemaking through a combination of a rigid body and a substantial 25 mm shank, which reduces deflection under load and ensures repeatable positioning in the spindle. The 48 mm cutting length allows longer engagement than standard short drills, enabling deeper passes without sacrificing stability. The result is a measurable improvement in hole roundness and positional accuracy, particularly on automated CNC centres where tool retention and concentricity determine process quality.

Practical benefits in workshop and production use

Designed as an indexable-insert solution, this solid drill shortens downtime: worn cutting edges are replaced by changing the insert rather than regrinding a solid tip. Compatibility with Korloy WCM inserts provides access to a wide portfolio of grades and geometries, allowing process optimisation for different workpiece materials and cutting conditions. The drill’s overall length 124 mm and balanced mass help maintain consistent cutting forces, so setup and cycle planning become more predictable for production technicians and planners.

Integration, handling and maintenance explained

The tool’s compact weight (0.307 kg) and defined clamping length (56 mm) simplify handling and storage, and the solid construction minimises vibration that can reduce insert life. Insert seating and clamping torque are decisive for performance; following the insert manufacturer’s instructions ensures secure seating and repeatable cuts. For workshop managers looking to reduce tooling complexity, the indexable design delivers cost-effective edge renewal and easier inventory management compared with brazed or solid-tip solutions.

FAQ

Which insert types are compatible with this drill?
The solid drill U143TM is intended for use with Korloy WCM series indexable inserts; confirm the exact insert geometry and grade to match the specific machining task.

What dimensions should be checked before mounting?
Check the toolholder clamping interface and ensure the 25 mm shank, overall length 124 mm and the clamping length of 56 mm fit the spindle or holder to maintain concentricity.

Can this tool be used for deeper-hole operations?
With a 48 mm cutting length and a rigid solid body, the drill supports deeper holemaking within the limits of its geometry and the machine setup; process parameters should be adapted accordingly.

How are worn cutting edges replaced?
Worn edges are renewed by replacing the indexable insert; follow the insert manufacturer’s torque specifications for secure seating and consistent performance.
