ZPMT-PL

Series expansion, shoulder milling insert from semi-finishing

to finishing side & bottom face for QM MAX MQX / QXP type.

Adopted 3 grades: PVD coated grade “JC8015” that showed stable performance in raw material up to 36HRC, cast

iron, and stainless steel. / New PVD coated grade “DH102” suitable for high speed machining in high hardened

material. / Cermet “CX75”.
