APMT1604PDER Cross Reference
Equivalent APMT1604PDER inserts across 4 brands — Mitsubishi, Korloy, ZCC-CT, Dormer Pramet. Same ISO 1832 geometry class; grades, coatings and application windows differ by manufacturer. Treat equivalents as starting points and verify on a sample part: a cross-reference matches the geometry, not the process.
A general-purpose nose radius: a balance of edge strength and finish that suits most first-choice turning before you tune up for finishing or down for roughing.

Counts are catalog listings, not stock levels. Availability varies by region and distributor.
- A — shape
- 85° parallelogram
- P — clearance angle
- relief angle 11°
- M — tolerance
- class M — molded, medium tolerance on inscribed circle and corner point (typically ±0.05–0.13 mm depending on size)
- T — type
- fixing hole with countersink, chipbreaker on one face (single-sided positive insert)
- 16 — cutting edge length / IC
- 16 mm nominal (inscribed circle / edge length class)
- 04 — thickness

- PDER — suffix
- manufacturer geometry / edge configuration suffix (chipbreaker style, hand of cut)
Type any maker's grade (e.g. GC4325, AC820P, T9215) to see grades other brands publish at the same ISO application position. VERIFIED = multi-source consensus; 2+ CHARTS = placement independently confirmed by two or more manufacturer charts; SINGLE-SOURCE = one chart only. Comparable at ISO position — not identical performance. Verify on a sample part.
