I have a Kennametal DSB4340105 parting/grooving blade PN 1263493 along w/ the following inserts for m/cing steel:
Grooving insert - GSP125N Grade KC730 (PN 1189162)
Parting insert - GSP125R Grade KC722 (PN 1112643)
I have 2 concerns w/ these inserts, 1st due to the chip breaker on the neutral grooving insert, the "bottom" of the groove is "crowned" & has to be removed w/ a file.
Secondly, I was thinking of getting parting inserts suitable for aluminum.
Talking to the Kennametal rep today in Toronto & I'm pretty much stuck w/ those inserts for that "system".
Does anyone know of insert supplier(s) that have product that cross references from Kennametal? My only alternative is to get a different blade w/ a better selection of inserts (pricy IMO).
