Manufactured to the SNMS432 ANSI standard and ISO designation SNMS120408, this insert features a square shape with a 0.5-inch inscribed circle, a 0.0313-inch corner radius, and a 90-degree included angle. The K68 grade delivers high wear resistance with moderate toughness, making it well suited for interrupted and continuous cuts across stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous materials. The uncoated, bright finish preserves the sharpness of the honed cutting edge. With 8 available cutting edges, this insert offers extended tooling value per unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert fits within the KENNAMETAL KENLOC series toolholding system and is intended for use in turning, facing, and boring operations. Its negative rake geometry and negative side clearance (clearance code N, tolerance code M) are engineered for stable cutting performance. Typical applications include medium machining operations on stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium in both production and job shop environments. The insert is held by clamp and pin methods and accommodates a maximum depth of cut of 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm). This insert is installed by machinists and CNC tooling technicians working on lathes and turning centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI grade K68 solid carbide with uncoated, bright finish for high wear resistance and edge integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare insert shape (SNMS) with 90-degree included angle and 0.0313-inch corner radius for versatile cutting geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 usable cutting edges per insert for maximized tool life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNegative rake angle (20 degrees) with honed cutting edge style for stable chip control in medium machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with clamp and pin holding methods within the KENLOC series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for turning, facing, and boring across stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with KENNAMETAL KENLOC series toolholders that accept SNMS432 inserts held by clamp and pin methods.

Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully in the pocket and secure the clamp and pin to the toolholder manufacturer's specified procedure before resuming operation. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or wear before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and edge stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMS432\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMS120408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: S - Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0313 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: K68\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated (Bright)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: Common (Medium Machining)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENLOC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Ferrous Metal, Superalloys, Titanium, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1161173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730442060082,"sku":"1161173","price":165.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3784362308ff3c0239ea387c7ab93258.jpg?v=1788717538","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1161173-snms432-k68-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
