Applications

This cutting tool is specifically developed for the medium machining of stainless steel in industrial manufacturing. It is an excellent choice for general mechanical engineering and contract manufacturing, where stainless steel workpieces require consistent or slightly varying depths of cut. The geometry of the MM chipbreaker effectively supports chip evacuation during longitudinal and facing operations.

Special features

The combination of the PVD coating and the tough M20-M30 carbide substrate makes the RT250M grade resistant to typical wear mechanisms encountered when machining alloyed materials. Available in corner radii of 0.4 mm, 0.8 mm, and 1.2 mm, the insert opens up flexible application possibilities for various contours and surface finish requirements.
