Klein KleinDIA® Four-Edge Reversible Carbide Insert, 30 x 12 x 1.5 mm
Four-Edge
KleinDIA® Insert
A Klein Z055.KD four-edge reversible HW carbide insert with KleinDIA® DLC anti-friction coating. Item Z055.329.NKD has a nominal 30 x 12 x 1.5 mm format, an official total length of 29.5 mm, two fixing holes on 14 mm centres, a 35° edge angle, and HC05 carbide grade.
Main Product Description
Klein Z055.329.NKD is one exact Item within the Z055.KD family of KleinDIA®-coated standard reversible HW inserts. The official Item row specifies 29.5 mm total length, 12 mm width, 1.5 mm thickness, 14 mm fixing-hole spacing, a 35° edge angle, two fixing holes, four usable cutting edges, and HC05 carbide grade.
KleinDIA® is a Diamond-Like Carbon anti-friction surface treatment rather than a PCD cutting edge. SISTEMI applies an approximately 1 micron coating at low temperature so the underlying carbide geometry is retained. The coating is specified with high hardness, strong wear resistance, low friction, and low material adhesion to support chip flow, finish quality, and reduced maintenance in suitable production work.
Official application guidance includes MDF/HDF, plywood, softwood, hardwood, and chipboard. The insert must be installed only in a compatible body designed for its exact dimensions, hole spacing, edge geometry, and clamping arrangement. The tool body, screws, and installation hardware are not implied to be included with this replacement insert.

Product Highlights
Four Reversible Cutting Edges
The verified insert format provides four cutting edges with two fixing holes for secure positioning in a compatible tool body.
KleinDIA® DLC Surface Treatment
The approximately 1 micron anti-friction coating is designed to improve wear resistance, reduce heat and adhesion, and support cleaner chip evacuation.
Exact HC05 Production Format
Item Z055.329.NKD combines HC05 carbide with 29.5 x 12 x 1.5 mm dimensions, 14 mm hole centres, and a 35° edge angle.
Compatibility & Installation Notes
Replacement insert only; the tool body and clamping hardware are sold separately unless a Titan listing explicitly states otherwise. Confirm SKU Z055.329.NKD and match the exact 29.5 x 12 x 1.5 mm dimensions, 14 mm fixing-hole centres, two-hole layout, 35° geometry, insert pocket, screw specification, and body compatibility. Installation, pocket cleaning, insert seating, fastener condition, and tightening must follow the tool-body manufacturer’s procedure; do not substitute a visually similar insert or use damaged clamping components.
Coated Carbide Production Performance
Klein Z055.329.NKD combines a four-edge HC05 carbide insert with a verified 29.5 x 12 x 1.5 mm format, two fixing holes, 14 mm centres, a 35° edge angle, and KleinDIA® DLC coating.
Correct body compatibility, pocket condition, seating, clamping hardware, and installation procedure are essential to achieving the intended finish, chip flow, wear resistance, and service life.
