The Tungaloy UTE-0096-2.593UPTAA (catalog number 9746043) is a new, indexable-insert gun drill from Tungaloy's U-Drill / deep-hole drilling line, manufactured in Japan. The body markings read "D15.00d11.6 / D.593d.457 / A2ST13," confirming a nominal cutting diameter of 15.00 mm (0.593 in), a coolant-through shank bore of 11.6 mm (0.457 in), and a body designation of A2ST13 indicating a straight-shank, twin-flute, through-coolant design consistent with Tungaloy's TungDrill Ultra series. The drill accepts Tungaloy's SOMT/WOMT-series PVD-coated carbide inserts seated in two pockets—one central and one peripheral—visible in the photos, allowing quick indexing without removing the body from the machine. Designed for single-pass deep-hole drilling operations in steel, cast iron, and stainless steel on machining centers and CNC lathes with through-spindle coolant capability, this drill delivers consistent hole quality and high metal-removal rates without the cycle-time penalty of dedicated gun-drilling machines.
