SNMG120408-MS US735
Mitsubishi Materials | The Specialist for Tough Stainless & Precision Finishing
The Mitsubishi SNMG120408-MS US735 is a high-toughness indexable turning insert specifically engineered for stainless steel machining where edge security is the highest priority. Combining the ultra-tough US735 CVD coating with the precision MS chipbreaker, this insert excels in finishing-to-medium applications involving interrupted cutting and unstable setups. It is the premier choice for suppressing vibration and preventing notched wear in austenitic stainless steels.

US735 Grade: Built for Impact
The US735 grade is a specialized CVD coated carbide designed for the heavy mechanical and thermal shock of stainless steel turning. Its unique substrate offers exceptional resistance to thermal cracking, making it the primary choice for interrupted cutting of tough alloys where standard grades often chip or shatter.
MS Chipbreaker Geometry
The MS chipbreaker is an anti-vibration geometry that minimizes cutting resistance. By reducing the load on the cutting edge, it prevents work hardening on the workpiece surface. This is critical for 300-series stainless steels. It delivers superior chip control and excellent surface finish even in long-reach or low-rigidity applications.
