It carries a TiAlN and AlCrN PVD coating applied via physical vapor deposition, which provides thermal resistance and wear protection at elevated cutting speeds. The insert features a negative rake geometry with chamfered and honed cutting edges, delivering controlled chip formation and edge stability. With 12 cutting edges on a double-sided body, this insert offers extended tool life per unit, making it a practical choice for production milling environments where cost-per-edge matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for use in Kennametal Dodeka cutter bodies and is intended for milling applications in ferrous and difficult-to-machine materials, including carbon steels, austenitic stainless steels, and titanium alloys. It fits the HNPJ insert series and is identified by ANSI code HNPJ43ANSNGD and ISO code HNPJ0604ANSNGD. Typical applications include face milling and shoulder milling on CNC machining centers in both job shop and production environments. Chip breaker designation is GD. The insert is held in the cutter body by screw clamping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with TiAlN and AlCrN PVD coating for high heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-sided hexagon body provides 12 usable cutting edges per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNegative rake with chamfered and honed edge prep for controlled engagement in steel and superalloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Kennametal Dodeka cutter series via screw-mount holding method\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGD chip breaker geometry optimized for steel, stainless steel, and titanium workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual standards compliance: ANSI and ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in Kennametal Dodeka series milling cutter bodies.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key driver specified for the Dodeka cutter body to torque the clamping screw without over-driving, as solid carbide inserts are brittle and will crack under excessive point load. Inspect the insert pocket seat for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure full, flat contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNPJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hexagon\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: KCPM40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN and AlCrN\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: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double Sided\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered and Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: GD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.00 mm (0.4724 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.45 mm (0.1750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.00 mm (0.0394 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.44 mm (0.4724 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.20 mm (0.1969 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.00 degrees\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: Dodeka\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNPJ43ANSNGD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: HNPJ0604ANSNGD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI and ISO\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  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: 5550703\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51741304422706,"sku":"5550703","price":200.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/15622fa2875c19bc06bcabc83d99415f_e6b3cf0e-1327-46d1-8a7d-911968e73215.jpg?v=1788830660","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-5550703-kcpm40-milling-insert-hexagon-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
