This page covers every SDKT 1204 insert we can supply — 3 variants across Achteck, published for Steel, Stainless steel, Cast iron, Heat-resistant alloys. The square 90° geometry gives it 8 cutting edges and makes it suitable for heavy roughing, square shoulders and interrupted cuts.
Milling inserts are chosen to match the cutter body — lead angle, number of teeth and the geometry designated by the manufacturer. The milling insert selection guide walks through that; this page lists what we actually hold in SDKT 1204.
