SNMN120408 FX105 indexable insert — square 12 mm, 0.8 mm radius (Tungaloy) for milling

A SNMN120408 FX105 square indexable insert engineered for productive face, shoulder and contour milling within Tungaloy milling systems.

• SNMN geometry for versatile milling
• FX105 grade: wear-resistant carbide
• Square 12 mm insert with 0.8 mm radius
• Designed for face, shoulder and high-feed milling

Consistent edge life and predictable productivity

The combination of the FX105 cutting grade and a cemented carbide substrate provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness that translates into extended edge life and predictable tool-change intervals. The insert’s square format and defined 0.8 mm corner radius reduce notch formation in many interrupted cuts, which keeps component tolerances stable over longer production runs. Fewer unexpected edge failures mean less downtime and improved machine utilisation for serial and batch milling.

Secure seating and system compatibility for reliable results

This indexable plate is intended for use in matching Tungaloy milling bodies where seat geometry and clamping integrity are critical. The insert is supplied without a hole and relies on correct clamping hardware and backing plates for secure fixation; the specified plate thickness 4.76 mm and square form require a compatible cutter body to prevent micro-movement. Ensuring the correct tool body and clamping screw reduces vibration and promotes repeatable seating, which helps to maintain surface finish and prolong tool life.

Application focus: where the grade and geometry deliver benefit

Suitable for face, shoulder, groove, contour and high-feed milling, the FX105 grade supplements the geometry to give the required combination of edge stability and wear performance. In practical terms, this means more consistent finishes on common milling operations and fewer indexings compared with less wear-resistant grades. When paired with correctly matched holders and cutting parameters, the insert supports efficient chip control and steady material removal rates for a wide range of production tasks.

FAQ

Is this insert compatible with non‑Tungaloy cutter bodies?
Compatibility depends on identical seat geometry and clamping method; the SNMN120408 FX105 insert (SKU TUN6806970) will fit other bodies only if the seat, thickness and clamping arrangement match the Tungaloy system

Which milling operations are ideal for this grade and geometry?
The insert is designed for face, shoulder, groove, contour and high‑feed milling; the FX105 grade supports interrupted cuts and general-purpose milling tasks

What advantages does the FX105 grade provide?
FX105 offers a balance of wear resistance and toughness, enhancing edge stability and extending the interval between indexings on demanding milling cycles

How is the insert clamped in the cutter body?
This square insert is supplied without a hole and requires the correct backing plate and clamping screw in a compatible cutter body to ensure secure seating

What material is the insert made from?
The SNMN120408 FX105 insert is made of Hartmetall, i.e. cemented carbide, providing the hardness and thermal resistance needed for robust milling performance
