Coated with TiAlN via a PVD process, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a broad range of workpiece materials. It carries Kennametal grade KC522M and features a square insert shape with a 15-degree relief angle and an LD2 chip breaker geometry. The screw-clamping hold method keeps the insert securely seated during high-feed and interrupted cuts. Licensed milling machinists and CNC tool setters are the primary installers of this type of insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for milling operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials. Its neutral hand designation makes it usable in a range of cutter orientations. The 0.126-inch corner radius helps distribute cutting forces and reduces edge chipping on demanding workpiece materials. It is appropriate for both roughing and semi-finishing passes where controlled chip formation is needed. The LD2 chip breaker is optimized for the material grades listed, making this insert a practical choice in production milling environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating applied via PVD process for improved wear resistance and thermal stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate in Kennametal grade KC522M for consistent performance on steel and difficult alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare insert shape (SDCT style) with 15-degree relief angle for positive cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLD2 chip breaker geometry designed for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.126-inch corner radius reduces stress concentration and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-clamping insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible tool bodies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in SDCT-style indexable milling tool bodies that accept a 1\/2-inch inscribed circle square insert with a screw-clamping hold method.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to tighten the clamping screw to the tool body manufacturer's specified seating torque — do not overtighten, as this can fracture the insert. Inspect the insert pocket seat for chips or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SDCT120432ENLD2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: SDCT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC522M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: LD2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1260 inches (3.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1880 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1732 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: C1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0146 pounds\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\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: 2889261\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744928006450,"sku":"2889261","price":185.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/407e1dd5a62597b3cc69eddccd1aa9e4.jpg?v=1788862339","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-2889261-milling-insert-kc522m-solid-carbide-tialn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
