Indexable Insert Drills

These indexable drill bits are utilized for a variety of ordinary drilling tasks that do not require specialized bits. They have a fluted body with removable cutting inserts for drilling holes in workpieces. They're also known as insert drills since their mounting seats are sized and designed to hold specific indexable inserts. When the old cutting edge dulls, the inserts can be turned (indexed) to expose a new one. Without removing the drill bits from the machine, they can be replaced with fresh inserts of the same or different types. In high-volume metalworking and fabrication applications with high speeds, high feeds, and difficult-to-machine materials, indexable drill bits need fewer tool changes than solid tools.
