Kennametal 1181435 Milling Insert XDMT150316R KC725M

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1181435 is a solid carbide milling insert in the XDMT series, designed for use in indexable milling cutters across a range of machining operations. Carrying the KC725M manufacturer grade, the insert features a PVD-applied multilayer TiN/TiCN/TiN coating that improves wear resistance and extends tool life in demanding cutting environments. The parallelogram insert shape with an 88-degree included angle and a 0.0630-inch corner radius supports stable, consistent chip formation. At 0.1252 inches thick and 0.3752 inches wide, this is a right-hand, single-sided insert secured by screw clamping and suited for precision milling work performed by machinists and tool-room professionals.

This insert is intended for milling applications involving steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpiece materials, corresponding to ISO material groups P, M, and S. The KC725M grade and PVD coating make it particularly appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes where edge integrity and dimensional consistency are critical. It is used in industrial machining environments, including job shops and production facilities running CNC vertical and horizontal milling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key driver specified by the cutter body manufacturer when seating the clamping screw — do not overtighten, as carbide inserts are brittle and can fracture under excessive clamp load. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before installing a new insert.
