Indexable Insert Drill Body U18TM – Ø 11.5 mm, 16 mm shank (Teknik Makina) An Indexable Insert Drill Body (Vollbohrer) designed for efficient holemaking in metalworking where fast insert replacement and consistent hole quality are required Indexable design for XCMT 060204 inserts Diameter 11.5 mm for standard hole sizes 35 mm effective cutting length 16 mm shank for secure clamping Overall length 92 mm, lightweight 0.113 kg Consistent hole quality through an insert system The indexable insert concept ensures stable machining results without full-tool replacement. With a nominal Ø 11.5 mm diameter and a cutting length of 35 mm, the tool body maintains repeatable cutting geometry across insert changes. The use of standard XCMT 060204 inserts (Korloy-compatible) means cutting edges can be swapped quickly, preserving bore tolerances and reducing scrap. This design is particularly effective where batch-to-batch consistency and predictable wear management are priorities, enabling controlled tool costs and reliable cycle times. Secure clamping and compact design for workshop use A robust 16 mm shank and a defined shank length of 45 mm provide secure seating in holders and adaptors, limiting runout and vibration during operation. The compact overall length of 92 mm and low mass (approx. 0.113 kg) reduce centrifugal loading at higher spindle speeds and simplify handling in manual set-up or machine changeovers. These characteristics support stable surface finish and dimensional control, making the component suitable for demanding production sequences that benefit from reduced set-up times. Faster servicing and lower tooling inventory Replacing indexable inserts is faster than regrinding or replacing complete solid-drill tools; the practical consequence is less downtime and a smaller tooling inventory. The compatibility with Korloy inserts helps shops standardise on widely available cutting grades and geometries, streamlining procurement and ensuring rapid availability of spare edges. Together, these factors translate into measurable process efficiency and a lower total cost of ownership for repetitive holemaking tasks. Integration into machining processes and handling notes The drill body is intended for use as an insert-based drilling solution in industrial and workshop environments where modular tooling is preferred. The tool’s geometry supports straightforward clamping and predictable tool life when paired with appropriate inserts and machining parameters. Where precise hole diameters are required, the modular approach allows fine-tuning of cutting edge selection without changing the tool body, aiding both prototype work and steady production runs.

Indexable Insert Drill Body U20TM — 12 mm diameter, 16 mm shank (Teknik Makina) A robust Indexable Insert Drill Body U20TM engineered for precision holemaking with Korloy XCMT 060204 indexable inserts in metalworking and toolroom applications. 12 mm cutting diameter 36 mm effective cutting length 16 mm precision shank Compatible with Korloy XCMT 060204 Accuracy and predictable hole quality for production runs The design delivers a consistent holemaking solution where repeatability matters. With a 12 mm diameter and an overall length of 94 mm, the tool body is dimensioned for a wide range of machining setups while retaining a compact footprint. The effective cutting length of 36 mm provides a well-defined engagement zone which helps stabilise the cutting forces; this stability is translated into more uniform hole diameters and reduced rework rates. Where tight tolerances are required, the use of an insert system ensures that cutting geometry can be restored precisely after each index or replacement. Indexable inserts for rapid service and lower running costs Compatibility with XCMT 060204 indexable inserts from Korloy gives shops a clear economic advantage: the cutting edge can be renewed by indexing or replacing the insert rather than regrinding the whole tool, reducing downtime and inventory complexity. The modular concept is particularly effective for mixed-batch production or when multiple grades of carbide are needed. The system is suited to pragmatic workshop logistics because different insert grades can be stocked independently from the body, enabling fast adaptation to varying materials and machining conditions. Stable clamping and toolholder integration A 16 mm shank with a 45 mm shank length ensures secure clamping in standard holders, which reduces vibration and improves surface finish. The relatively light mass (approx. 0.114 kg) also aids spindle balance for shorter overhangs, while the overall construction is optimised to transfer torque and resist deflection where drilling depth is moderate. These characteristics mean the drill body is readily integrated into existing toolholders and collet systems without elaborate fixturing, supporting efficient changeovers on the shopfloor. Workshop suitability and operational overview The component is supplied as a drill body compatible with established insert formats and is identified under SKU U20TM. Its layout supports conventional holemaking tasks across general steelworking and similar applications where indexable insert tooling is preferred for productivity and maintainability. Technical teams will appreciate that the modular approach simplifies maintenance planning and sharpens cost-per-hole calculation, enabling clearer decisions about tooling lifecycle and replacement strategy.
