SDGT 1204PD AH120 indexable milling insert — Tungaloy

The SDGT 1204PD AH120 is an indexable insert for Tungaloy milling systems, designed for face, shoulder, slot, high‑feed and contour milling when used with a matching cutter body and clamping arrangement.

• PVD-coated carbide grade AH120 for milling
• Square insert, 12 mm size, 4.76 mm thickness
• 90° cutting angle with 15° clearance
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° single-sided countersink

Higher process reliability through wear‑resistant coating

The SDGT1204PD AH120 insert combines a PVD-coated surface with a wear-resistant carbide substrate to deliver consistent machining performance. The AH120 grade is engineered for resistance to wear and chipping, providing a sharp cutting edge and improved process security in both interrupted and continuous cuts. The thin, hard coating reduces flank wear and helps maintain insert geometry over longer periods, which supports steadier component quality and fewer unscheduled tool changes.

Stable geometry for demanding milling tasks

Configured as a square form insert with a 12 mm nominal size and 4.76 mm thickness, the geometry gives a stable seating face and even load distribution during heavy passes. The 90° angle permits efficient perpendicular engagement for shoulder and face milling, while the 15° clearance reduces friction and heat generation. The one-sided chipbreaker steers swarf reliably, aiding evacuation in slotting and contour operations and lowering the risk of built‑up edge that would otherwise compromise surface finish.

Practical system integration and production benefits

Integration into a milling assembly requires the correct insert seat and the appropriate clamping screw, with an underlay if specified by the cutter family. The PVD layer contributes to extended tool life and consistent surface quality, which in turn supports higher throughput and fewer index changes. For production environments prioritising repeatable results and uptime, this indexable solution offers measurable improvements in productivity and operational stability while fitting standard Tungaloy tool systems.

FAQ

What milling operations are suitable for this insert?
The insert is intended for face, shoulder, slot, high‑feed and contour milling depending on the selected cutter family; the SDGT1204PD AH120 performs well in these applications when correctly mounted.

What is the hole and countersink specification?
The SDGT1204PD features a cylindrical hole with a single‑sided countersink specified at 40°–60°, designed for secure clamping in compatible cutter bodies.

What advantages does the AH120 PVD coating provide?
The AH120 PVD coating improves wear and chipping resistance, helping to retain a sharp cutting edge and extend service intervals for the SDGT1204PD insert.

Which cutter bodies accept this insert?
The insert is compatible with Tungaloy milling systems provided the insert seat, geometry and cutter body family match the SDGT1204PD specification.

How is the insert secured in the tool assembly?
Securing is achieved with the appropriate clamping screw and, where required by the tool design, an underlay; the system build typically comprises cutter body, indexable insert, clamping screw and optional underlay.
