TaeguTec APMT1604PDER DP5320 | Carbide Milling Insert for Steel & Cast Iron
Duracarb Carbide Inserts & Milling Blades — APMT • TNMG • RPMT
Duracarb offers a wide selection of carbide inserts for milling and turning: APMT, TNMG, RPMT and related chipforms / grades (examples: DP5320, DC9025). These inserts suit steel, stainless, cast iron and non-ferrous machining when matched with the right grade and cutterbody.
Why choose Duracarb inserts?
Cost-effective performance
Duracarb balances price and life for common machining tasks — ideal where high-value replacement insert budgets are limited.
Common compatible geometries
APMT, TNMG, RPMT and other widely-used geometries that fit common cutter bodies and toolholders.
Multiple grades available
Grades like DP5320 and DC9025 (example listings) target stainless, hardened steels and general-purpose cutting—select grade to match material and cut.
Popular Duracarb Models & Applications
| Model / Grade | Geometry | Typical Application | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| APMT1604 PDER (DP5320) | APMT / 16×16 / R0.8 | Face milling / finishing on stainless and alloy steel | Good balance of wear resistance and toughness. Example SKU in market listings. |
| TNMG160404 (DC9025) | TNMG / turning | External turning and general machining of steel | Listed widely by Chinese suppliers — economical option. |
| RPMC / RPMT series | Indexable milling | Slotting and cutterbody-based milling | Available in multiple chipforms; confirm chipbreaker for material. |
Technical Data & Compatibility
Always match insert geometry (APMT / TNMG / RPMT), thickness, corner radius and grade to your cutterbody and machining parameters. Below is a quick reference — confirm exact dimensions from your supplier datasheet before ordering.
| Parameter | Example |
|---|---|
| Insert thickness (T) | APMT1604 ≈ 4.76 mm (confirm with datasheet) |
| Corner radius (r) | R0.4, R0.8 etc. — choose by finish requirement |
| Grade examples | DP5320 (general/SS), DC9025 (wear-resistant), others depending on supplier |
How to select the right Duracarb insert
- Identify the geometry that matches your tool/cutter (APMT, TNMG, RPMT).
- Choose the corner radius and chipbreaker for your desired surface finish and depth of cut.
- Match grade to material: tougher grades for interrupted cuts, wear-resistant grades for abrasive materials.
- Test recommended cutting data on a sample job and optimize speeds/feeds for life & finish.
