PNMU 0905GN NS740 PNMU indexable milling insert – milling application, pentagonal, with hole (Tungaloy)

PNMU0905GN NS740 is an indexable insert designed for milling applications, optimised for finishing to light machining of steel where surface quality and dimensional consistency are priorities.

• High-grade NS740 cermet for fine finishes
• Pentagonal form for five usable cutting edges
• Cylindrical hole with double countersink 40°–60°
• 0° relief for stable axial positioning
• Compatible with Tungaloy milling systems

Precise surface quality and predictable wear

The cermet grade NS740 is formulated for finishing to light machining of steel, prioritising surface integrity and dimensional control. The material chemistry and coating combination deliver a fine contact edge that reduces burr formation and helps maintain tolerance windows over longer tool life. In production contexts where repeatable part quality is required, this insert offers a balance between surface finish and predictable wear rates, lowering the need for frequent rework and inspection.

Geometry engineered for productivity and edge economy

A pentagonal plate shape provides five indexing positions, extending usable life before replacement. The pentagon form, combined with a double-sided chipbreaker, supports controlled chip flow and contributes to consistent cutting forces during planar, shoulder and contour milling. The insert’s profile and the specified 108° included angle assist in load distribution across the cutting edge, which helps maintain edge integrity when switching between finishing and light roughing operations.

Secure clamping and system compatibility

The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole and a double-sided countersink (40°–60°) to ensure positive axial and radial location in the cutter body. A 0° relief specification means the plate locates flat against the seat, providing repeatable positioning and stable clamping with the appropriate clamping screw and, if required, support shim. Note that plate seat, geometry and cutter body must match; correct mating of components is essential for safe, repeatable performance in Tungaloy milling systems.

Application guidance and machinability

Designed primarily for milling, typical uses include planing, shoulder work, slotting, high-feed and contouring dependent on the assigned tool family. The grade suits fine finishing and light material removal on steel where surface quality and dimensional accuracy are the focus. When integrating into a toolset, consider feed and depth parameters consistent with finishing operations to capitalise on the cermet’s tendency for excellent edge stability and low built-up edge risk.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The PNMU0905GN NS740 is specified for finishing to light machining of steel, with the NS740 cermet grade optimised for surface quality and even wear.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The pentagonal form provides five indexing positions; each index restores a fresh cutting edge for continued use.

What are the key geometric features that aid clamping stability?
The combination of a cylindrical hole with a double-sided countersink (40°–60°) and a 0° relief ensures secure axial and radial location in compatible Tungaloy cutter bodies.

Can this insert be used for roughing operations?
The insert is designed primarily for finishing and light machining; it may be used in lighter roughing within the limits of its grade and geometry, but heavy stock removal is not the intended application.

Which tool systems must the insert be fitted to?
The insert is intended for use in Tungaloy milling systems where the plate seat, geometry and cutter body are technically matched to the insert specification.
