Kennametal 2383558 Milling Insert KC725M Solid Carbide

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 2383558 is a solid carbide milling insert with ISO designation SDCT120412PDERLD2, designed for high-performance milling operations in demanding machining environments. This square-shaped insert carries a KC725M manufacturer grade and features a multilayer PVD coating of TiN, TiCN, and TiN, providing wear resistance and thermal stability. The LD2 chip breaker geometry promotes controlled chip formation. With a 0.5000 inch inscribed circle, a 0.1875 inch thickness, and a 0.0469 inch corner radius, this insert suits precision milling applications where tight tolerances are required. Machining professionals and tooling specialists working in steel, stainless steel, and superalloy applications will find this insert suited to production-level demands.

The SDCT120412PDERLD2 insert is intended for milling steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpiece materials, corresponding to ISO material grade codes P, M, and S. It is a right-hand insert held in place by a screw-style clamping method, compatible with SDCT-series toolholders requiring a size 43 insert with a 90-degree included angle. Typical applications include face milling and shoulder milling on CNC machining centers in both production and job-shop environments. This insert is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machining professional or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to secure the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified procedure without over-torquing. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or damage before installing a new insert.
