It features a multilayer CVD coating of TiN, TiCN, Al2O3, and TiOCN applied via MTCVD process, delivering a combination of high toughness on steel and moderate wear resistance on stainless steel. The insert carries a square shape with a 90-degree included angle, a 0.5000-inch inscribed circle, and a corner radius of 0.0313 inches. The MV chip breaker geometry is suited for roughing and medium machining passes. With 8 available cutting edges per insert, it offers extended tool life per unit cost across high-volume production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert fits into the KENLOC series toolholding system and is intended for use by machinists and toolroom technicians performing turning, facing, and boring operations. Primary applications include roughing and medium-depth cuts on steel (ISO P) and stainless steel (ISO M) components. The neutral hand orientation supports use in both left-hand and right-hand toolholders where SNMG-style inserts are specified. The insert accepts both clamp and pin holding methods, providing flexibility across multiple toolholder configurations in job shop and production floor settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMultilayer CVD coating (TiN, TiCN, Al2O3, TiOCN) for high toughness on steel and wear resistance on stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMV chip breaker geometry rated for roughing and medium machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 cutting edges per insert for extended tool life and lower per-edge cost\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare insert shape (S) with 90-degree included angle and negative rake for strong edge support\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both clamp and pin insert holding methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ISO dimensional standards (ANSI: SNMG432, ISO: SNMG120408)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in KENLOC series toolholders accepting SNMG432 (ISO SNMG120408) inserts with clamp or pin holding.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing inserts. Ensure the toolholder pocket and seating surfaces are clean and free of chips before placing the insert. Torque clamping screws only to the toolholder manufacturer's specified value — do not overtighten, as this can fracture the carbide insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMG432\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMG120408\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMG432MV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCP40B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: S - Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0313 inches (1\/32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1665 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 degrees negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: MV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing, Medium Machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered, Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN, TiCN, Al2O3, TiOCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: MTCVD (CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Classification\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD Multilayer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (P), Stainless Steel (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C5, C6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENLOC\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: 0.03 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: 6997668\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51753143664946,"sku":"6997668","price":134.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b4e6d06c06f78f4cdf2c67204d0d775e.jpg?v=1788933221","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-6997668-snmg432mv-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
