Utilizing a negative-rake geometry, it boasts high edge strength, excellent impact resistance, and superior durability during interrupted cutting operations. It is ideally suited for the roughing and semi-finishing of external diameters, faces, and internal bores in materials such as carbon steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and stainless steel. The insert possesses ample rigidity, enabling it to withstand heavy-duty working conditions involving large depths of cut and high feed rates. It comes standard with various chipbreaker geometries, ensuring stable chip evacuation and preventing chip entanglement. Furthermore, it features a multi-layer wear-resistant coating that offers high thermal stability and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for both dry and wet cutting applications. Compatible with both conventional and CNC lathes, this insert is an economical, practical, and highly versatile tooling solution.
