Indexable Insert Drill U169TM — Teknik Makina · 29.5 mm diameter · 25 mm shank

The Indexable Insert Drill U169TM is a purpose-built drill body for industrial holemaking, engineered to accept indexable inserts for efficient and repeatable material removal in production and repair shops.

• 29.5 mm drill diameter
• 25 mm shank for secure clamping
• 87 mm cutting length for deep holes
• Compatible with Korloy WCM-0503 inserts

Consistent productivity through engineered stability

The drill body is designed to ensure stable chip evacuation and repeatable hole quality in series production. With a 25 mm shank, the holder provides secure clamping in standard toolholders, reducing vibration and improving bore accuracy. The combination of a 29.5 mm cutting diameter and 87 mm cutting length supports productivity gains when deeper bores are required, while the moderate 0.61 kg mass keeps spindle load predictable. This construction leads to fewer rejects and less rework, translating into tangible time savings on the shop floor.

Clear compatibility for fast tooling decisions

Compatibility with Korloy WCM-0503 inserts simplifies procurement and inventory management by allowing the use of established indexable tooling grades. The drill body accepts standard insert geometries, which makes replacement straightforward and minimises downtime during tool changes. Stating the insert type and manufacturer gives purchasing and planning departments the confidence to source consumables that match tool performance requirements without lengthy qualification cycles.

Practical benefits that reduce total process cost

Indexable insert tooling reduces per-hole cost by separating the cutting edge from the body; worn inserts are replaced rather than discarding the entire tool. The U169TM’s geometry supports efficient cutting parameters for many steels and general engineering alloys, improving tool life of the inserts and lowering overall tooling expenditure. The combination of the 87 mm cutting length and robust shank design means fewer tool setups are required for multi-pass operations, improving machine utilisation.

Supportive documentation and workshop integration

The drill body’s dimensions and interfaces are intentionally standardised to integrate into existing toolholding systems with minimal adaptation. Technical staff will appreciate clear numerical data for fixture and programme preparation, and maintenance routines are simplified by the replaceable insert concept. For additional technical data or to confirm suitability for a specific application, Metav’s technical advisors are available to provide detail drawings and process recommendations.

FAQ

What materials is the drill body suited to machine?
The Indexable Insert Drill U169TM is intended for general engineering alloys and typical production steels; insert selection should be matched to the workpiece material for best results.

Which inserts fit this drill body?
This drill body is specified for Korloy WCM-0503 type indexable inserts; matching the insert grade to the application will deliver optimal life and hole quality.

What are the key dimensions to check for toolholder compatibility?
Check the 25 mm shank diameter, overall length of 171 mm and 87 mm cutting length to ensure correct clamping and reach in the toolholder and machining programme.

How often should the insert be changed?
Insert life depends on material and cutting conditions; the U169TM benefits from rapid replacement of worn inserts to maintain bore quality and minimise machine downtime.

Is this product available with technical drawings or cutting data?
Cutting data and drawings can be provided for the Indexable Insert Drill U169TM by Teknik Makina; Metav Werkzeuge can assist with feed and speed recommendations for specific machines.
