SDMT1204PD AH120 – Indexable milling insert for high-process stability by Tungaloy

A SDMT1204PD AH120 insert developed for milling operations within Tungaloy milling systems, suitable for plan, shoulder, slot, high-feed and contour milling depending on the assigned cutter family

• PVD-coated carbide AH120 for wear resistance
• Sharp cutting edge with high process stability
• Square 12 mm insert with 4.76 mm thickness
• Cylindrical bore with 40°–60° countersink

Consistent edge life through advanced grade design

The PVD-coated grade AH120 delivers pronounced wear resistance, reducing flank and crater wear under continuous operation. By combining a robust substrate with a thin, adherent coating, the insert maintains a sharp cutting edge for longer periods, which translates into fewer changeovers and reduced machine downtime. The wear characteristics are particularly beneficial when a resistant edge and predictable performance are demanded, supporting cost-efficient batch production and repeatable process windows.

Geometry and dimensions that support precise milling

This indexable insert is supplied in a square form with a nominal size of 12 mm and a plate thickness of 4.76 mm, dimensions that suit compact milling bodies and provide stable clamping. The zero corner radius and the specified geometry enable clean 90° shoulder generation and reliable contour definition. The combination of size and thickness also aids in vibration damping on short overhangs, improving surface finish and dimensional consistency across components.

System compatibility and secure clamping for safe machining

Designed for Tungaloy milling assemblies, the insert requires matching insert seat, geometry and cutter body to perform as intended; the system comprises the milling body, the indexable insert, a clamping screw and, where necessary, a shim. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical bore and a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) to ensure positive location and secure fastening. The specified tool geometry with a 90° contact angle and a clearance of 15° facilitates predictable chip flow and efficient material removal across typical milling tasks.
