AOMT123608PEER-M Milling Insert

Description

The AOMT123608PEER-M is an ISO-style indexable milling insert designed for shoulder milling, face milling, slotting and general CNC milling applications. The AOMT 123608 size indicates a robust insert format with a 0.8 mm corner radius, suitable for medium-duty machining where edge strength and stable cutting are important. The PEER-M geometry is intended for practical chip formation in general milling operations, especially when machining steels, stainless steels and cast irons. Exact coating and carbide grade information is not specified in the available product data, so the cutting values below are recommended starting ranges for a typical carbide milling insert of this type. This insert is a good fit for workshops looking for dependable performance, competitive cost per edge and consistent chip control in everyday production. For best results, use a rigid machine setup, correct insert clamping, suitable coolant or air blast and adjust cutting speed and feed according to material condition, tool overhang and cutter diameter.

Recommended Cutting Data
