It carries the ANSI designation SNMG120404NEF and is coated with Sumitomo's Absotech Platinum finish applied via CVD process, providing wear resistance and thermal stability at the cutting edge. The insert features a 90-degree square shape with a neutral cutting hand, a 0.5 inch inscribed circle, and a 1\/64 inch corner radius. With a negative rake geometry and a G-style chip breaker, it is built for controlled chip evacuation during continuous and semi-interrupted turning operations. Licensed machinists, CNC operators, and tooling specialists typically specify this insert for high-volume production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is engineered primarily for turning stainless steel, corresponding to ISO material grade M and material code M30. It is suited for both roughing and finishing passes on austenitic and ferritic stainless grades where edge toughness and coating adhesion are critical. The SNMG form factor is a widely adopted standard in external turning and boring bar applications across both horizontal and vertical turning centers. Its pin-and-screw holding method ensures positive location in compatible SNMG toolholders. The insert is cataloged under Sumitomo series SN and also references manufacturer catalog number SNMG431EEF-AC6030M for cross-referencing purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbsotech Platinum CVD coating delivers high oxidation resistance and extended tool life on stainless steel workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNegative rake geometry with G chip breaker supports controlled chip flow and reduced built-up edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare SNMG insert shape provides four usable cutting edges for cost-efficient tooling management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/64 inch corner radius balances surface finish quality with edge strength on medium-depth passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral cutting direction suits both right-hand and left-hand toolholder configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with ANSI and ISO 13399 standards for tooling data interoperability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in SNMG-style toolholders accepting a 0.5 inch inscribed circle square insert with pin-and-screw clamping.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is in a safe index position before changing inserts. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw to avoid damaging the insert pocket seat. Inspect the toolholder pocket and locating pin for wear or debris before seating a new insert, as pocket damage directly affects cutting accuracy and insert life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMG120404NEF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: SNMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: AC6030M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Absotech Platinum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 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\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.16 mm\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: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pin and Screw\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SUMITOMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196CCMS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728141943090,"sku":"196CCMS","price":162.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/eb80e0ed81e2b5b8302b9ade111a903d.jpg?v=1788688689","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-196ccms-turning-insert-snmg120404nef-ac6030m","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
