YG-1 S084 Cobalt Steel Throw Away Spade Drill Insert, TiAIN Finish, 2-7/16″ Diameter, 5/16″ Thick (Pack of 1)

Description

Product Overview

The YG-1 S084 Throw-Away Spade Drill Insert is engineered for precision machining in the most demanding industrial environments. Constructed from high‑grade cobalt steel, the insert offers superior hardness and wear resistance, while the TiAIN surface treatment enhances durability and reduces friction during high‑speed operations. With a compact 2‑7/16″ diameter and a robust 5/16″ thickness, this insert fits a wide range of spade drill holders, delivering consistent cutting performance across varied material types. Its throw‑away design eliminates the need for costly reconditioning, allowing operators to swap inserts quickly, maintain optimal tool geometry, and keep production lines running with minimal downtime. The insert’s geometry is optimized for efficient chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and extending tool life even when machining high‑nickel alloys or materials with hardness levels above 280 Brinell. This combination of material strength, surface coating, and precise dimensions makes the YG-1 S084 a reliable choice for manufacturers seeking both performance and cost‑effectiveness.

Usage

Designed for use in high‑performance machining centers, the YG-1 S084 excels in applications such as aerospace component fabrication, automotive engine part production, and heavy‑duty equipment manufacturing. Its ability to handle high‑nickel alloys, stainless steels, and other hard materials makes it ideal for drilling operations where material toughness and heat resistance are critical. Operators can employ the insert in both CNC and manual drilling setups, benefiting from its easy‑to‑replace nature which reduces tool changeover time. The insert’s geometry promotes smooth chip flow, minimizing the risk of chip re‑cutting and surface finish defects. When used in conjunction with appropriate coolant delivery systems, the TiAIN finish further reduces thermal expansion, ensuring dimensional stability throughout the machining cycle. This insert is particularly suited for high‑speed drilling, deep hole creation, and applications requiring precise tolerances, delivering reliable results even under continuous production demands.
