KNUX insert Meaning
Understanding the KNUX Insert Code
KNUX:
- K: Shape (rhombic with an 55-degree included angle, although the edge has a unique preparation).
- N: Clearance angle (0 degrees).
- U: Indicates a higher strength design
- X: Chipbreaker geometry and hole configuration (manufacturer-specific).
Numerical Digits
- First Two Digits: Inscribed circle (IC) diameter in millimeters. Divide by 25.4 to get the approximate inch size.
- Next Two Digits: Thickness in millimeters. Divide by 25.4 to convert to inches.
- Last Two Digits: Corner radius in millimeters. Divide by 25.4 to convert to inches.
