Recommended Cutting Parameters
Achieve optimal indexable tool holder life with these recommended settings:
- Cutting Speed (Vc): 100 - 160 m/min (Material dependent).
- Feed Rate (f): 0.08 - 0.20 mm/rev.
- Formula: Spindle Speed $N = \frac{Vc \times 1000}{\pi \times D}$
- Coolant: High-pressure central internal cooling is mandatory for effective chip flushing.
Premium 20CrMnTi Steel & Optimized Flute Design
Constructed from high-performance quenched alloy steel (20CrMnTi), this WC08 insert holder ensures maximum toughness and fatigue resistance. The optimized spiral flute geometry with a large chip pocket is designed for efficient long-chip breaking and rapid evacuation, preventing clogging during deep hole drilling. The nickel-plated surface prevents corrosion and ensures smooth chip flow in high-heat environments.
WC Series U-Drill: Pros & Cons
- Uses WCMX / WCMT inserts with 3 cutting edges (Excellent economy).
- Stable drilling on uneven surfaces due to better radial balance.
- Higher feed rates than traditional spade or twist drills.
- Requires high spindle power (kW) for 54mm diameter.
- Recommended for machines with high-pressure coolant pump.
Verified Customer Feedback

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this include the WCMX08 carbide inserts?
A: No, this is the 54mm U-drill body only. Inserts are sold separately.
Q: What is the benefit of the WC series over the SP series?
A: WC series (Trigon) offer 3 usable cutting edges per insert, making them much more economical for high-volume production.
Q: Can I use this on a CNC Lathe?
A: Yes, it is perfectly suited for both CNC Machining Centers and CNC Lathes with the correct 40mm holder.
Pro-Tip: Choosing the Right Depth (2D vs 5D)
- 2D/3D (This Model): Provides maximum rigidity and allows for the highest feed rates. Ideal for stable, standard depth holes.
- 4D: The universal choice for general purpose industrial drilling.
- 5D: Specialized for long reach drilling. Requires reduced feed and high-pressure coolant to maintain 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.
