EBFM 16T20S rhombic milling insert, carbide, 75° — Tungaloy

The EBFM 16T20S is an indexable milling insert designed for face, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling in Tungaloy milling systems.

• Rhombic insert with 75° cutting angle
• Carbide grade for durable edge life
• One-sided chipbreaker for stable chip control
• Cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Consistent surface quality from precise geometry

The rhombic shape with a 75° cutting angle provides a reliable compromise between strength and accessibility, delivering consistent finishes even on interrupted cuts. Manufactured from carbide, the insert maintains edge integrity under typical milling loads and reduces the frequency of indexing or replacement. The modest 2.78 mm plate thickness contributes to rigidity while allowing the insert to be used in compact cutter bodies. For production environments prioritising predictable component tolerances, this geometry supports repeatable results and easier process planning.

Stable chip control and extended tool life

Chip formation is guided by the one-sided chipbreaker, which promotes controlled chip segmentation and evacuation across a range of feeds. This reduces the risk of built-up edge and helps maintain surface integrity during longer cycles. The 5° relief angle reduces rubbing on the flank while preserving cutting strength, and the cylindrical hole ensures secure clamping and consistent seating in the cutter body. Explained simply, the chipbreaker shapes how material breaks away so that machining remains uninterrupted, which in turn supports higher effective throughput and improved tool-life economics.

Compatibility and practical application guidance

Part of the Fräswendeschneidplatten model series, the insert is intended for use in Tungaloy milling systems where the insert seat, geometry and cutter body match technically. Typical uses include face milling, shoulder milling, slotting, high-feed and contour operations depending on the chosen tool family. Correct selection ensures the insert performs as expected; the design supports quick indexability and safe clamping, which reduces downtime during tool changes. For new setups, verify cutter compatibility and seating before proceeding to production runs to benefit from the insert’s stability and repeatable performance.

FAQ

What applications is this insert suited to?
Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, slot milling, high-feed and contour milling when used in compatible Tungaloy milling systems; the insert’s design supports a range of general milling operations.

How does the chipbreaker improve machining?
The one-sided chipbreaker on the insert promotes controlled chip segmentation and evacuation, reducing built-up edge and improving surface integrity during extended milling cycles.

What are the key mounting requirements?
Correct seating in a matching cutter body is essential. The cylindrical hole and precise geometry require a compatible Tungaloy milling body and correct clamping torque for reliable performance.

What does the 5° relief angle mean for cutting?
A 5° relief angle minimises flank rubbing while preserving cutting edge strength, helping to balance wear resistance with reduced cutting forces.

Which material is the insert made from and what does that imply?
The insert is made from carbide, providing wear resistance and edge stability suited to a broad range of milling tasks under typical industrial conditions.
