Buying Guide: Choosing the Right CCMT Insert

  • Need help choosing? Consider the material you’ll be cutting to pick the right cut type—standard or double cut.

  • Ease of changeover. If downtime bugs you, screw-on inserts are your friend for quick swaps.
  • Check what materials you work with regularly. Choose an insert designed to handle your primary substrates effectively.
