BEYOND WC25-5D-SD22-WC04
Professional 5D Indexable U-Drill | Deep Hole CNC Machining Specialist
Precision 22mm Deep Hole Drilling
The BEYOND WC25-5D-SD22-WC04 is a high-performance indexable insert drill engineered for heavy-duty metal removal. With a 22mm cutting diameter and a 5D depth-to-diameter ratio, this tool is the ultimate solution for high-speed internal cooling drilling. It provides exceptional stability and superior chip evacuation when processing carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel in demanding CNC environments.
Model Code Explained
Technical Data & Metric/Imperial Comparison
| Feature | Metric (mm) | Imperial (Inch) |
|---|---|---|
| Cutting Diameter (SD) | 22.0 mm | 0.866" |
| Shank Diameter | 25.0 mm | 0.984" |
| Max Drilling Depth | 110.0 mm | 4.330" |
Recommended Cutting Parameters
Optimize your CNC machine tool productivity with these reference values:
- Cutting Speed (Vc): 100 - 180 m/min (Depending on material hardness).
- Feed Rate (f): 0.05 - 0.12 mm/rev.
- Coolant Strategy: High-pressure internal coolant is mandatory for 5D depth to ensure chip clearance.
Material Excellence & Slot Design
Constructed from high-strength alloy steel with specialized anti-vibration quenching, this tool body ensures maximum rigidity. The spiral flute geometry is wide-designed for "forced" chip removal, which prevents chip-packing—the primary cause of tool failure in 22mm deep hole drilling. This WC04 insert holder is nickel-plated for superior corrosion resistance and enhanced tool life.
WC Series U-Drill: Pros & Cons
- Uses WCMX / WCMT inserts with 4 cutting edges (Cost-effective).
- Better stability on uneven or curved entry surfaces compared to SP drills.
- Superior chip breaking performance on carbon and alloy steels.
- Higher torque requirements than SP series drills.
- Requires precise spindle alignment for deep 5D depths.
Pro-Tip: Choosing Drill Depth (2D to 5D)
The L/D ratio determines stability and application range in CNC tooling:
- 2D/3D: Maximum rigidity. Best for high-speed shallow holes.
- 4D: The universal standard for general-purpose machining.
- 5D (This Model): Specialized deep-hole drill. It allows for deep penetration but requires high-pressure internal coolant to ensure straightness and tool longevity.
