There are holders for turning with them, but if you already have a holder for SNMG43x size inserts (as I do) then you just need a different anvil (seat) and clamp. Most holders would use an eccentric screw in the middle and a clamp over the top. For those inserts you would switch to a screw-down anvil with no eccentric sticking up, and a flat clamp.

Once you have that, pray for the inserts.

They are a non-reinforced Al²O³ ceramic insert, intended for milling cast iron. You would have an easier time finding a milling cutter that takes them. In fact, I may have one you could have for CHEAP.
