The Original Korloy RCGT1003MO-AK H01 is a high-performance 10.0mm Round (RCGT) Insert, engineered for maximum productivity in Aluminum, Copper, and Non-Ferrous Alloys. The H01 Grade features an un-coated, mirror-polished surface that virtually eliminates friction. Combined with the -AK chipbreaker, this insert provides a razor-sharp cutting action that prevents built-up edge (BUE), ensuring that your parts achieve a high-gloss, premium finish even in heavy-duty profiling.
Maximum Efficiency: The 10.0mm diameter of the RCGT1003 offers significantly more edge surface than smaller inserts. This allows for higher feed rates and deeper cuts while maintaining the heat-dissipation benefits of the un-coated H01 carbide substrate.
Technical Specifications:
| Brand | Korloy (100% Genuine) |
| ISO Code | RCGT1003MO-AK |
| Insert Shape | Round (RC) |
| Diameter | 10.0 mm |
| Grade | H01 (Uncoated Mirror-Polished Carbide) |
Core Performance Benefits:
- Unbeatable Surface Finish: Mirror-polished rake face prevents aluminum chips from welding to the edge, resulting in superior surface integrity.
- Large Radius Stability: The 10mm round profile naturally creates a massive corner radius, allowing for beautiful, smooth transitions in 3D profiling.
- High-Speed AK Geometry: Specifically designed to break the tough, stringy chips of non-ferrous metals at high feed rates.
- Cost-Effective Durability: Rotate the circular insert to multiple fresh cutting positions, maximizing the life of every single piece.
Recommended Cutting Parameters:
| Material Group | Cutting Speed (Vc) | Feed Rate (f) |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminum Alloys (6061/7075) | 300 - 900 m/min | 0.10 - 0.30 mm/rev |
| Copper / Bronze / Brass | 200 - 550 m/min | 0.10 - 0.25 mm/rev |
| Plastics (Delrin/Acrylic) | 250 - 650 m/min | 0.15 - 0.40 mm/rev |

Machinist Tip: Why the 10.0mm Diameter Matters?
Scaling up to RCGT1003 provides unique advantages for large aluminum workpieces:
The large 10mm profile is strong enough for aggressive roughing cuts, yet the mirror-polished H01 edge remains sharp enough to produce a decorative "mirror finish" in the same operation.
H01 is the gold standard for pure and low-silicon aluminum. If you are machining highly abrasive materials like carbon fiber or glass-filled plastics, then look for PCD (Diamond) inserts, but for everything else non-ferrous, H01 is the winner.
Pro Advice: For RCGT1003MO-AK, don't be afraid of high speeds. The AK chipbreaker works best when the centripetal force of the chip is high. If you encounter long, bird-nesting chips, increase your feed rate or surface speed (Vc).
Packaging: 10 pieces per box.
