XOMT Carbide Inserts – High-Performance Milling Inserts

At CNC Tools Depot, we bring you the most comprehensive range of XOMT carbide inserts, sourced from leading global brands such as Korloy, Widia, Kennametal, Taegutec, Iscar, Mitsubishi, and Sandvik.

The XOMT insert designation stands for:

  • X – Special Insert Shape (commonly used in high-performance milling cutters)

  • O – Clearance angle (commonly 0°)

  • M – Insert tolerance class (medium)

  • T – Type of insert (often single-sided with chipbreaker)

These inserts are widely used in face milling, shoulder milling, and high-speed machining operations, offering excellent balance of toughness, wear resistance, and surface finish.


Applications of XOMT Inserts

XOMT carbide inserts are engineered for:

  • Face Milling – Achieves smooth surface finishes on steel, stainless steel, and alloys.

  • Shoulder Milling – Produces precise 90° shoulders with high stability.

  • Slotting Operations – Effective for narrow slots and grooves.

  • High-Speed Machining (HSM) – Coated grades allow cutting at elevated speeds.

  • General Milling on CNC Machines – Ideal for automotive, aerospace, and die-mold industries.


Types of XOMT Carbide Inserts Available

  1. XOMT Uncoated Inserts – Best for non-ferrous materials like aluminum and plastics.

  2. XOMT CVD Coated Inserts – High wear resistance, perfect for steels and cast iron.

  3. XOMT PVD Coated Inserts – Superior edge sharpness, ideal for stainless steel and titanium.
