Info on face mill

I have a 2" poland face mill 6-941-120. Trying to find inserts to fit it. Is anybody familiar with this and know what inserts fit it.

if it is like this one on the bay

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-DIA-X-R8-SHANK-RIGHT-HAND-CUT-AP-END-MILL-6-941-120-/230950368876

they say it uses APKT 16 inserts.

The # match id the listing but the picture doesn't. Mine is 2" and uses 5 inserts I found a site that list my face mill and it says APXT 1604 but I cannot find that # I need to findout for shure if the APKT 1604 will fit those I can find on ebay.

Can't always go by the picture. In the description, likely taken from a catalog, it says 5 inserts.

I agree with Tony. Made in Poland & that p/n format, that's typically Toolmex (TMX)/Bison. The photo & diagram in that ebay listing is taken from Toolmex's site & they show the same photos for all their APX 90° indexable endmills.

You can use APKT inserts & they will fit assuming the mfg of the inserts follows industry standard correctly. Some insert mfgs call their inserts APXT. You should also be able to use APMT as well.
