Sumitomo 14U2AKR Carbide Milling Insert Aomt Pvd Absotech

Product Description

The SUMITOMO 14U2AKR is a solid carbide milling insert designed for use in indexable face and shoulder milling operations. It carries the AOMT insert style in size 1705, with a rectangular shape and a manufacturer grade of ACU2500. The insert features a PVD-applied Absotech coating, which is engineered for wear resistance and thermal stability during high-speed cutting. At 5.50 mm thick and 19.50 mm wide, with a 0.80 mm corner radius, this insert delivers consistent edge geometry for finishing and semi-finishing passes. The G chip breaker configuration helps control chip flow and reduce cutting forces. Installation is performed by machinists and tooling technicians in CNC milling applications.

This insert is suited for indexable milling toolholders in the WEZ cutter series. It is a right-hand cutting insert, making it compatible with right-hand cutter bodies designed for the AOMT pocket style. Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, and ramping operations on steel and similar workpiece materials where a PVD-coated carbide grade is appropriate. The ACU2500 grade and Absotech coating make this insert a practical choice for production environments requiring consistent tool life across multiple cutting edges.

Compatibility

Designed for use with WEZ series cutter bodies accepting AOMT-style insert pockets in right-hand orientation.

Installation Notes

Indexable carbide inserts should be seated and torqued using the correct insert screw and manufacturer-specified torque wrench for the cutter body. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket seat and clamping screw threads for wear or debris before installing a new insert. Proper seating ensures accurate cutting geometry and prevents premature insert or cutter body damage.
