The hexagonal HNGJ insert style provides 12 usable cutting edges per insert, delivering a strong cost-per-edge value for high-volume milling operations. The insert carries a negative rake geometry with a chamfered and honed cutting edge style, a 0-degree relief angle, and a corner radius of 3\/64 inch (0.0468 inch decimal). An inscribed circle of 0.625 inches and a thickness of 0.2151 inches place this insert in the standard HNGJ535 size class. Licensed HVAC and machining trades recognize this as a precision tooling component requiring proper toolholder selection before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for milling applications across steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and hard materials — workpiece material codes P, M, K, and H. It is compatible with the Kennametal Dodeka cutter series and suits the HNGJ0905ANSNHD toolholder standard. The HD chip breaker designation targets moderate to heavy stock-removal passes in both roughing and semi-finishing contexts across industrial production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 cutting edges per insert from double-sided hexagonal geometry — maximizes tool life value per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMTCVD multilayer coating: TiN, TiCN, and Al2O3 for thermal resistance and wear protection on steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKCPM20 grade with HD chip breaker — suited for moderate to heavy milling depths in difficult workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation — fits left- or right-hand toolholder pockets without restriction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut: 0.3383 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO standards (ANSI code HNGJ535ANSNHD, ISO code HNGJ0905ANSNHD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with the Kennametal Dodeka cutter series.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before seating or replacing inserts. Use the correct torque driver per the toolholder manufacturer specification for the clamping screw — over-tightening can crack the carbide body. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or debris before seating a new insert to maintain proper seating depth and runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCPM20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hexagon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNGJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 535\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2151 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0468 inches (3\/64 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3383 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN, TiCN, Al2O3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: MTCVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Classification\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered, Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSided\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHolding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Series Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dodeka\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNGJ535ANSNHD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNGJ0905ANSNHD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 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: 3873498\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727821046066,"sku":"3873498","price":79.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/51e4eb8653c7b463d6e9a66d34274b03.jpg?v=1788683020","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-3873498-kcpm20-hexagon-milling-insert-12-edge","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
