Manufactured to RCMK46 and RCMK120800 standards, this insert features a PVD-applied TiN coating and a positive rake geometry with a 7-degree rake angle and 5-degree relief angle. It delivers four usable cutting edges per insert, making it a practical choice for production turning environments where insert economy matters. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shops or production facilities will find this insert suited for profiling passes and continuous turning operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is applied in external profiling and turning operations where a full 360-degree round shape and a 0.25-inch corner radius allow smooth contour blending and reduced tool pressure. It is well suited for machining steel (P10, P20), stainless steel (M10, M20), and superalloys or titanium (S10, S20) across a range of cutting conditions. The KC730 grade, combined with PVD TiN coating, supports both roughing and semi-finishing strategies on these workpiece families. Typical applications include CNC lathes and turning centers where a K-LOCK clamp or pin holding method is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound RCMK insert shape with 360-degree included angle and 0.25-inch corner radius for smooth profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKC730 carbide grade with PVD TiN coating rated for steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake geometry with 7-degree rake angle and 5-degree relief angle to reduce cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour cutting edges per insert for extended insert life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with K-LOCK clamp and pin holding systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation for flexible setup on standard turning centers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in K-LOCK toolholders accepting RCMK46 or RCMK120800 insert seats.

Seat the insert fully in the pocket and secure using the appropriate K-LOCK clamp or pin per the toolholder manufacturer's procedure. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and runout. Index or replace the insert at the first sign of chipping, built-up edge, or dimensional drift in the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: RCMK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\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 (16.61 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.654 inches (16.61 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 360 degrees\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: KC730\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: RCMK120800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: K-LOCK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: P10, P20, M10, M20, S10, S20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Profiling, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0379 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\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: 1163524\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735048356146,"sku":"1163524","price":207.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01999981a1d6326e19568218ce9fc447.jpg?v=1788769665","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1163524-rcmk46-kc730-carbide-profiling-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
