What CNMG 190608 tells you on the shop floor

80° corner: strong yet versatile, turns and faces with the same insert.

Double-sided negative insert: edges on both faces, stronger and cheaper per edge. Needs a rigid machine and clamping; not for small bores.

Pressed, medium tolerance: economical, fine for roughing and where you do not need repeatability to a few hundredths of a mm at every insert change.

The most common radius: a balance between strength and finish.
