Not sure where else to ask this question, so here goes. We have a few older Valenite 3" shell mills, along with some smaller 2 flute tools that take the same inserts. They use SNKT 43.5 inserts, and for the life of me, I cant find anyone selling them, accept for MSC. Their prices are ridiculous, since the tools are discontinued. Does anyone know of another insert style that will fit this tool, or at least another vendor that carries these?? Last time we purchased these, we bought them in a large lot, and stock is almost gone.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Gary

Carbide Depot has them but not sure if their price is any better than MSC:

Gary,
Have you found an alternative to the SNKT? I have the same problem. It seems that the sekt 43 looks the same, are they?
