RDKN2004TN UX30 RDKN indexable insert for milling — Tungaloy

The RDKN2004TN UX30 is an indexable milling insert designed for versatile face, shoulder, slot, high‑feed and contour milling, offering a sharp cutting edge and consistent chip control.

• Sharp cutting edge for low cutting forces
• Uncoated carbide substrate for predictable wear
• 15° free angle reduces cutting resistance
• Round insert Ø20 mm, thickness 4.76 mm

Increased productivity through lower cutting forces

The combination of the UX30 grade and a deliberately sharp cutting geometry is engineered to reduce cutting resistance and improve feed efficiency. Lower cutting forces allow higher material removal rates without increasing spindle load, which supports faster cycle times and reduced tool change frequency. This results in a more predictable process and contributes directly to improved production throughput and part-to-part consistency.

Predictable tool life and consistent chip formation

Made from uncoated carbide, the insert provides stable wear characteristics that simplify tool life planning and reconditioning cycles. The round form and precise geometry promote uniform chip formation, lowering the likelihood of clogging or erratic cutting conditions. In practice, this means fewer interruptions for tool checks and a steadier surface finish on workpieces where controlled chip flow is critical.

Compatibility and assembly for reliable operation

The insert is intended for use in Tungaloy milling systems where plate seat, geometry and milling body must technically match. Correct pairing with the designated cutter body and clamping screw is essential for clamping security and repeatable positioning. The design includes a 15° free angle to assist cutting entry and reduce rubbing, and the absence of a hole and chipbreaker reflects its suitability for specific system families within Tungaloy’s range.

Applications and handling in mixed production environments

This indexable insert is suitable for a broad range of milling tasks — face milling, shoulder milling, slotting, high‑feed and contouring — depending on the selected tool family. The compact Ø20 mm diameter and 4.76 mm thickness make it a good option where space or cutter diameter is constrained, while the UX30 grade excels where low cutting forces and reliable chip control are priorities. For efficient integration, ensure correct torques and seating during replacement to maintain process stability.
