SEGT 12T3 is a square 90° milling insert with 8 usable cutting edges, used mainly for heavy roughing, square shoulders and interrupted cuts. We list 4 stock-keeping variants of it from Achteck, covering Steel, Stainless steel, Cast iron, Hardened steel.
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 SEGT 12T3.
