The innovative Beyond platform of high-performance tool grades from Kennametal has garnered exceptional reviews from customers worldwide. Now the company is introducing the first Beyond inserts for holemaking applications. Three new grades are available: KCPK10, KCU25, and KCU40. The product portfolio covers SPPX/SPGX Drill Fix Square (DFS) outboard inserts, available in HP, FP, and MD geometries. Together with the DFS drill bodies, diameters range from 24.0 to 55.0mm (1.00 — 2.125 inch). Kennametal's DFS indexable drill platform offers the economy of a square insert having 4 edges in the outside pocket combined with the outstanding centering and high feed ability of a DFT trigon insert. The DFS indexable drill can be used in virtually any short-hole applications and materials performed on CNC lathes or machining centers. Achieving up to 20 percent or higher material removal rate (MRR) at the same tool life as standard inserts, the KCPK10 grade offers outstanding abrasion and crater-wear resistance for high-speed machining of steels and cast irons.
