Meet the Vortex Indexable U-Drill, a versatile drilling solution designed for general purpose indexable drilling across steel, stainless steel, cast iron, exotics, and non-ferrous materials. Built around the SPMG/SPKX insert system, this 42 mm U-drill delivers reliable performance with through-coolant capability.

• Diameter: 42 mm
• Maximum drill depth: 2xD
• Insert system: Uses SPMG or SPKX ISO inserts
• Coolant: Internal through coolant capability
• Material coverage: Suitable for Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron & Exotics, plus Non-Ferrous
• Holder options: Available in 2xD, 3xD, 4xD
• Application: General purpose indexable drilling

This U-Drill combines the efficiency of an indexable insert with a robust U-drill body. By using ISO SPMG/SPKX inserts, you can tailor cutting performance to the material at hand and replace only the worn inserts, reducing tooling costs while maintaining hole quality. The 2xD depth specification keeps the tool compact for precise work, while through-coolant directs cooling directly to the cutting edge, improving heat management and extending insert life. With holder options for 2xD, 3xD, and 4xD, you can adapt the setup to shallow or deeper hole operations without changing tooling. Ideal for a broad range of materials, the Vortex U-Drill is a reliable choice for everyday production and workshop drilling.
