Carrying the KC522M manufacturer grade and a PVD-applied TiAlN coating, this insert delivers thermal resistance and wear life across a broad range of workpiece materials. The octagon insert shape provides 8 cutting edges per insert, maximizing tool economy. At 0.2362 inches thick with a 3\/64-inch corner radius, it is built for consistent chip formation and stable cutting geometry in CNC milling applications. Installation requires a screw-holding method compatible with KSOM-series cutter bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium — material application codes P, M, K, and S. The GB chip breaker geometry and positive rake angle of 5 degrees promote efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces, making this insert appropriate for both roughing and semi-finishing passes. It fits KSOM-series cutter bodies and is specified under ANSI code OFKT64AFEN6GB and ISO code OFKT07L6AFENGB. Typical users include CNC machinists and tooling specialists in production and job-shop environments working with the material groups listed above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOctagon insert shape with 8 cutting edges for extended tool life per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKC522M grade with PVD TiAlN coating for thermal and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle (5 degrees) and honed cutting edge for reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGB chip breaker geometry for efficient chip evacuation across multiple material types\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut of 0.2950 inches supports roughing and semi-finishing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation for flexible cutter body configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with KSOM-series cutter bodies.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before any insert change. Verify insert seating and torque the clamping screw to the cutter body manufacturer specification — do not estimate. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or debris that could affect seating plane accuracy and cutting geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: OFKT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Octagon\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: KC522M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2362 inches (range: 0.2350 to 0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7360 inches (range: 0.7000 to 1.0000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7360 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7360 inches (range: 0.7000 to 0.9000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0472 inches (3\/64 inch \/ 1.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2165 inches (0.22 mm nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2950 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 64\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Series Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: KSOM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: OFKT64AFEN6GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: OFKT07L6AFENGB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double Sided\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 per package (minimum order quantity: 5)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0328 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 2229543\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750880674098,"sku":"2229543","price":249.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e263308aea3ee803d702580e7d4f7fa9.jpg?v=1788920326","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-2229543-milling-insert-kc522m-solid-carbide-tialn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
