PCD APKT 160404 Insert – Product Overview

PCD APKT 160404 Inserts are index able cutting tools designed for high-precision machining of non-ferrous materials. The "APKT" designation refers to the insert's shape and dimensions, while "160404" indicates the insert size and thickness.

Key Features:

  • Material Composition: These inserts are made from Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD), offering exceptional hardness and wear resistance.​
  • Insert Dimensions:
    • Length: 16 mm
    • Width: 4 mm
    • Thickness: 4 mm​
  • Coating: Typically, PCD inserts are uncoated due to the inherent hardness of the material.​
  • Applications: Ideal for machining non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, and brass, as well as composites and plastics.​
  • Advantages:
    • High wear resistance, leading to longer tool life.
    • Excellent surface finish quality.
    • Stable machining performance at high cutting speeds.
    • Reduced build-up edge formation.​
