• 12 mm square, 4.76 mm thickness
• 1.6 mm corner radius for robust cuts

Consistent productivity from the LX11 carbide grade

The LX11 cemented carbide grade is developed to deliver a reliable balance of wear resistance and toughness, which supports longer tool life in mixed-production environments. As an indexable insert, this item reduces changeover time and contributes to predictable machining cycles. The combination of the 12 mm square geometry and a 1.6 mm corner radius helps maintain stability during interrupted cuts and moderate roughing, while the ISO conformity ensures repeatable seating and clamping accuracy across matching holders.

Predictable compatibility and straightforward application

Produced as an ISO turning insert, the component fits systems where form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness match the holder specification. The 0° relief angle and square shape provide a neutral cutting geometry suitable for both external and internal turning operations; selection of a chipbreaker and the LX11 grade should be guided by workpiece material and machining stability. For questions about holder compatibility or recommended cutting data, Metav Werkzeuge can supply technical guidance and supplementary data by email or phone.

Practical guidance on geometry and machining outcomes

The insert’s 4.76 mm thickness and absence of a central hole simplify mounting in many square-pocket clamping systems while preserving mechanical rigidity. The 1.6 mm corner radius offers a tangible increase in edge strength compared with finer radii, improving resistance to edge chipping under variable feed rates. When finishing or aiming for a finer surface, choose appropriate feeds and consider a smaller nose radius in the tool family; for heavier engagement, the present geometry supports stable chip formation and extended tool life. The LX11 composition complements this geometry by favouring predictable wear patterns and service intervals.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The LX11 grade cemented carbide is designed for a broad range of materials in turning; the SNGN 120416 LX11 insert is particularly suited where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required.

How does the 1.6 mm corner radius affect machining?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge robustness and helps prevent chipping under variable loads; the geometry of the SNGN 120416 supports more stable cuts during moderate roughing.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO form and dimensions, so compatibility depends on matching form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness to the chosen holder.

Does the insert have a central mounting hole?
No, this indexable insert is supplied without a central hole, designed for clamps and pocket systems that secure square 12 mm plates.
