The Original Korloy SPMT090308-PD PC5300 is a heavy-duty Universal Square Indexable Insert, precision-engineered for large-diameter Indexable U-Drills and robust face milling cutters. Featuring Korloy's flagship PC5300 PVD Grade, this insert combines an ultra-tough carbide substrate with a heat-resistant PVD coating. It is the premier choice for Stainless Steel (M-Group) and (Exotic Alloys), offering the edge toughness required for deep hole drilling in demanding environments.
The Problem Solver: When using large U-drills (34mm-42mm), the center insert is subjected to intense axial pressure at low speeds. PC5300’s extreme impact resistance makes it the ideal inner insert to prevent the edge-chipping commonly seen with brittle CVD grades.
Technical Specifications:

Core Performance Benefits:
- Shock Resistance: Fine-grained carbide substrate provides excellent resistance against sudden impacts during hole entry.
- Versatile Performance: Capable of machining Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, and Heat-Resistant Alloys with a single insert grade.
- Reinforced Radius: The 0.8mm corner radius (R8) is designed to handle the high radial forces found in large-diameter drilling and rough milling.
- Stable Edge Life: The advanced PVD coating prevents Built-Up Edge (BUE) when machining "gummy" materials like 304 stainless steel.
Recommended Cutting Parameters:

Machinist Tip: The "Fail-Safe" Grade for Big Holes
Why PC5300 is essential for large SPMT09 applications:
The Inner Edge Hero. In large U-drills, the center insert doesn't "cut"—it pushes. PC5300's high toughness is designed to handle this crushing action without fracturing. Always use PC5300 for the inner pocket of your drill.
The Outer Edge Hero. For high-volume steel drilling, pair your inner PC5300 with an outer PC3500. This combo gives you the toughness in the center and heat resistance at the periphery.
Pro Advice: When drilling Stainless Steel, use PC5300 for BOTH pockets. Due to the high torque of a 40mm drill, ensure your machine spindle is locked and use through-spindle coolant to maintain consistent edge temperature.
Packaging: 10 pieces per box.
