WNMG 080408 Chip Breaker BF Grade FM524 / WNMG 432 BF #FMCarbide

WNMG 080408 / WNMG 432, chip breaker BF, grade FM524 — negative 80° trigon turning insert.

1/2" inscribed circle, 3/16" thick, 1/32" corner radius. The BF breaker is the finishing geometry: 0.002–0.010 ipr (0.05–0.25 mm/rev) at 0.02–0.06" (0.5–1.5 mm) depth of cut. FM524 is a CVD grade — gray cast iron and very stable steel — the hardest substrate with CVD coating for extreme wear resistance.
