Osg 7813022 Sxmt Milling Insert XP2040 Grade 0.5 Inch

Product Description

The OSG 7813022 is a solid carbide milling insert designed for indexable face and shoulder milling operations on stainless steel and steel workpieces. It carries the SXMT insert style in a square shape with a 90-degree included angle and a right-hand cutting orientation. The insert features a CVD-applied TiALN coating and is manufactured to the XP2040 grade, delivering consistent wear resistance and edge stability in demanding cutting environments. With four usable cutting edges per insert, the 7813022 is a cost-effective choice for high-production shops running the 78PHC cutter series. Licensed trades machinists and tooling technicians are the primary installers and users of this product.

This insert is suited for indexable milling applications in both light and moderate material removal scenarios involving stainless steel (ISO material code M) and steel (ISO material code P). It fits the OSG 78PHC cutter series and is compatible with screw-on insert holding systems. The GM chip breaker geometry supports positive rake cutting action, helping to control chip formation and reduce cutting forces when machining these materials. Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, and general-purpose contouring on CNC machining centers in job shop and production environments.

Key Features

• Square SXMT insert shape with 90-degree included angle and positive rake geometry
• XP2040 manufacturer grade with CVD TiALN coating for wear resistance on stainless steel and steel
• Four cutting edges per insert for extended tool life value
• GM chip breaker with chamfered and honed cutting edge style for controlled chip evacuation
• 1.00 mm corner radius for edge strength and surface finish balance
• Maximum depth of cut of 0.0787 inches for recommended cutting parameters

Compatibility

Designed for use with the OSG 78PHC cutter series. The ANSI and ISO code for this insert is SXMT120410SR-GM. Screw-on insert holding method required. Compatible with right-hand cutter bodies accepting SXMT style inserts in the 120410 size code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician with the machine spindle fully stopped and locked out per facility LOTO procedures. Seat the insert firmly against the pocket locating surfaces before tightening the clamping screw to avoid micro-movement during cutting. Inspect the insert pocket for chips, debris, or wear before indexing or replacing the insert. Follow the cutter manufacturer's recommended feed and speed guidelines for the specific workpiece material being machined.
