BEYOND WC25-4D-SD17.5-WC03
Precision 4D Indexable U-Drill | 17.5mm Industrial CNC Tooling
Rapid 17.5mm Indexable Holemaking
The BEYOND WC25-4D-SD17.5-WC03 is a high-rigidity indexable insert drill engineered for rapid metal removal in modern CNC machining environments. Featuring a 17.5mm cutting diameter and a 4D depth-to-diameter ratio, this tool is the definitive choice for high-speed internal cooling drilling. It is optimized for processing carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel with maximum stability.
Model Code Specification
Technical Data & Metric/Imperial Comparison
| Feature | Metric Model (mm) | Imperial Equivalent (Inch) |
|---|---|---|
| Cutting Diameter (SD) | 17.5 mm | 0.689" |
| Shank Diameter | 25.0 mm | 0.984" |
| Max Drilling Depth (4D) | 70.0 mm | 2.756" |
Recommended Cutting Parameters
Achieve optimal results in metal drilling by following these standard guidelines:
- Cutting Speed (Vc): 100 - 180 m/min (Material dependent).
- Feed Rate (f): 0.05 - 0.12 mm/rev.
- Coolant Strategy: High-pressure internal coolant is mandatory for 17.5mm diameters to ensure effective chip evacuation and prevent tool wear.
Premium Material & Specialized Spiral Flute
Constructed from high-performance alloy steel with specialized anti-vibration quenching, this WC03 insert holder ensures maximum rigidity. The wide spiral flute geometry is specifically engineered for "forced" chip removal, preventing chip-packing—the primary cause of tool failure in 17.5mm deep hole drilling. The nickel-plated body minimizes friction and prevents chip welding during high-speed operations.
WC U-Drill: Advantages & Considerations
- Uses WCMX / WCMT inserts with 3 usable cutting edges (High economy).
- Stable performance on uneven or sloped entry surfaces.
- Excellent chip breaking on low-carbon and alloy steels.
- Requires higher spindle torque and power than carbide drills.
- Surface finish may require secondary finishing for high-precision bores.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: Yes, with the correct WCMX insert coating and high-pressure coolant, it performs exceptionally in 304/316 stainless.
A: Yes, each drill body includes the necessary Torx wrench and insert screws.
A: Absolutely, it is designed for both CNC lathes (static or live tools) and machining centers.
Global Customer Trust
"Top Tier Rigidity" - Hans M. (Germany)
The 4D depth is surprisingly stable on my CNC center. Great chip evacuation.
"Best value drill" - Mark T. (USA)
Switched from a name brand to BEYOND. No difference in tool life!
"High cost-performance" - Kenji S. (Japan)
Wide flutes prevent any chip build-up. Very reliable body construction.
"Highly Recommend" - Liam W. (Australia)
Perfect 17.5mm diameter. Arrived fast and works exactly as described.
"Excellent Finish" - Luca R. (Italy)
The nickel plating is high quality. Chips flow smoothly through the flute.
Pro-Tip: Choosing Drill Depth (2D to 5D)
The L/D ratio is critical for CNC tooling success:
- 2D/3D: Maximum rigidity; best for shallow holes and high-feed roughing.
- 4D (This Model): The balanced universal standard for industrial deep-hole machining.
- 5D: Specialized long reach drill. Requires extreme coolant pressure to maintain hole straightness.

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.
