Where RCKT inserts are used
Round milling inserts are used in profile (copy) milling, face milling and high-feed cutters; the round edge is strong.
RCKT is a positive (7° clearance) round milling insert. It has a countersunk hole for a clamping screw. The chipbreaker is on one face only. The positive geometry keeps the cutting forces down.
Use the insert format, size and corner configuration specified by the cutter manufacturer; check the pocket and clamping system before ordering.
