Kennametal 1316526 Milling Insert KC7215 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1316526 is a solid carbide milling insert with a TiAlN PVD coating, designed for high-performance metal cutting in milling applications. It carries the ANSI/ISO designation 3.42807R001 and is manufactured to the KC7215 grade. The insert measures 0.4724 inches wide and 0.1575 inches thick, with an inscribed circle of 0.3750 inches. The TiAlN coating is applied via PVD process, providing thermal resistance and wear protection suited to demanding cutting conditions. This is a single-sided, right-hand insert held in place by screw-mount clamping. It is installed by machinists and tooling technicians working with CNC and manual milling equipment.

This insert is designed for use in the SEFAS cutter series. It is rated for a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials. The KC7215 grade targets applications where tool life and edge stability are critical, making it well suited to both production and job-shop milling environments. Material grade classifications C3, C4, and C7 apply. The insert conforms to ANSI and ISO standards under designation 3.42807R001.
