BEYOND SP C25-5D-SD18.5-SP06
18.5mm 5D Indexable U-Drill | Precision Blind Hole Boring Specialist
Industrial 18.5mm Deep Hole Boring Specialist
The BEYOND SP C25-5D-SD18.5-SP06 is a high-rigidity indexable insert drill engineered for extreme stability in deep hole boring. With an 18.5mm cutting diameter and a 5D depth ratio (92.5mm reach), this tool is the professional choice for blind hole machining. Featuring internal cooling and a specialized spiral flute, it ensures high-speed efficiency and superior surface finish on CNC lathes.

20CrMnTi Alloy Steel & Optimized Chip Slot
Premium Tool Body Material: This indexable drill body is forged from 20CrMnTi high-strength alloy steel. The surface is vacuum-quenched to achieve HRC 50-55, providing incredible wear resistance while the core remains shock-resistant to handle interrupted cuts during deep hole boring.
Spiral Flute Geometry: The specialized U-groove spiral design features wide chip pockets. Combined with dual internal cooling holes, it allows high-pressure coolant to flush metal chips out of 92.5mm deep bores instantly, preventing chip packing and protecting the carbide inserts from heat failure.
Recommended Cutting Parameters (5D 18.5mm)
Suggested for Carbon Steel (HB < 250). Adjust based on machine rigidity:
- Cutting Speed (Vc): 110 - 180 m/min
- Feed Rate (f): 0.05 - 0.12 mm/rev
- Rotation Speed (N): Calculated as $$N = \frac{Vc \times 1000}{\pi \times 18.5}$$
- Coolant: High-pressure internal cooling (Min 1.5 MPa) is mandatory for 5D depth.
SP Series U-Drill: Advantages & Considerations
- Uses 4-edge SPMG square inserts (Higher cost-efficiency).
- Exceptional stability and verticality for Blind Hole Machining.
- Thicker tool core provides higher rigidity than WC drills for 5D reach.
- Requires higher torque and spindle power than trigon drills.
- Sensitive to low-pressure coolant systems in 5D deep holes.

Technical Support Q&A
Q: Can I use this for through-hole drilling?
A: Yes, but SP is specifically optimized for blind holes due to its insert geometry. For pure through-hole high-volume production, a WC drill might be slightly faster, but SP is more versatile for rigidity.
Q: Is a pilot hole required?
A: For 5D (92.5mm), we highly recommend starting with a short 2D U-drill to ensure the entry is perfectly centered before going deep.
Q: What is the benefit of the Side-Lock (C25) shank?
A: The 25mm straight shank allows for massive clamping force in side-lock holders, preventing tool rotation under high torque.
Machinist Tip: SP vs. WC U-Drills
SP Series (Square): The professional choice for Blind Hole (Blind Bores). Square inserts create a flatter bottom and offer maximum core strength for 5D depths.
WC Series (Trigon): Primarily used for Through Hole applications. WC inserts offer more cutting edges but the body core is thinner, making it less rigid than SP for extreme depths.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
When choosing CNC cutting tools, check the full model code, dimensions, grade and selected variant before ordering. Do not rely on the product image alone.
For carbide inserts, tool holders, drills and end mills, compare the mounting dimensions, connection type and manufacturer's specifications with your holder or machine. If you are unsure, share your existing part number and machining application with us before ordering.
Check the product listing for the selling unit, pack quantity and included components. If it is unclear whether the price is per piece or per pack, or whether a tool body and inserts are sold separately, contact us before purchasing.
Select cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut using the relevant manufacturer's recommendations for your tool model, workpiece material, machine conditions and coolant method. The same settings are not suitable for every product or application.
