Ingersoll Cutting Tools 5840235 Milling Insert Carbide

Product Description

The INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS 5840235 is a solid carbide milling insert designed for high-precision metal removal in milling applications. Manufactured to ISO code XEET250416R-P in grade IN15K, this insert features a parallelogram shape with an 82-degree included angle and a positive rake geometry. The bright uncoated finish and fine to medium grain carbide substrate are optimized for cutting non-ferrous metals where sharp edges and low friction are critical. With 2 cutting edges and a right-hand orientation, it suits a range of indexable milling cutter bodies in the BEHB series. Licensed HVAC or machining trades professionals will recognize this as a precision consumable for CNC and manual milling setups.

This insert is intended for use in milling operations involving non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper alloys. It fits cutter series 15X1X and 5X6X, making it compatible with a defined family of Ingersoll indexable milling cutter bodies. The single-sided, screw-held design and sharp cutting edge style make it well suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes where surface quality and dimensional accuracy are the primary goals. It is a single-piece consumable with a minimum order quantity of 1.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction in fine and medium grain substrate for rigidity and edge retention
• Bright uncoated finish optimized for non-ferrous metal cutting applications
• Positive rake angle with sharp cutting edge style reduces cutting forces and heat generation
• 2 cutting edges per insert with right-hand orientation and screw holding method
• Flat top chip breaker geometry suitable for non-ferrous finishing and semi-finishing
• Meets ANSI and ISO standards; ANSI code BEHB82R118 S IN15K, ISO code XEET250416R-P IN15K

Compatibility

Compatible with Ingersoll cutter series 15X1X and 5X6X. Designed for indexable milling cutter bodies in the BEHB series that accept screw-held parallelogram inserts with an inscribed circle in the 0.4000 to 0.5000 inch range and thickness in the 0.1500 to 0.1750 inch range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians on CNC or manual milling machines. Power down and lock out the spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw to avoid cracking the carbide body or stripping the screw seat. Inspect the pocket seating surface for chips or debris before installing a fresh insert to ensure proper support and accurate edge positioning.
