CNMA CAST IRON INSERT
CNMA CAST IRON INSERT
Cargo Carbide CNMA Cast Iron Insert is a negative carbide turning insert developed for CNC machining of cast iron components. The CNMA configuration uses an 80° rhombic cutting geometry with a strong negative cutting form, making it suitable for turning and facing applications where a robust cutting edge is required.
The CNMA Cast Iron Insert is particularly suited to cast iron machining, where the workpiece produces short chips and the cutting tool must withstand demanding turning conditions. Cargo's listed configuration includes CO15C where applicable, with sizes such as 120404, 120408, 120412, 160404, 160408 and 160412, depending on availability.
Different nose-radius options, including 0.4 mm, 0.8 mm and 1.2 mm, allow the insert to be selected according to the required machining operation and component requirements.
For CNC workshops and engineering manufacturers looking for a CNMA insert for cast iron, cast iron carbide turning insert or CNMA CNC turning insert, Cargo Carbide provides a dedicated tooling option for compatible turning and facing applications.
