Carmex 06ILA60BXC Laydown Threading Insert 60 Thread

Product Description

The CARMEX 06ILA60BXC is a solid carbide laydown threading insert designed for internal partial profile 60-degree thread cutting. Finished with a TiN coating for improved wear resistance, this insert is configured for left-hand thread cutting and covers a range of 48 to 20 TPI. With a 5/32-inch inscribed circle and a thickness of 0.073 inches, it is built for precision threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. This insert is used by machinists and toolroom professionals working with indexable toolholders in production and job shop environments.

This insert is suited for internal threading applications where a left-hand, partial profile 60-degree thread form is required. The TiN finish helps extend tool life in moderate-duty cutting conditions. At 48 to 20 TPI, it covers a broad range of common unified and metric-equivalent thread pitches for internal bore work. It is typically mounted in compatible CARMEX laydown-style threading toolholders used in CNC turning applications across light industrial and precision machining settings.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in threading operations
• TiN finish provides a hard, low-friction coating to extend insert life
• Left-hand internal partial profile 60-degree thread form
• Covers 48 to 20 TPI for versatile internal threading range
• 5/32-inch inscribed circle and 0.073-inch thickness for laydown-style toolholder fitment
• Indexable design allows seat rotation to expose fresh cutting edges

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard insert for CARMEX laydown-style threading toolholders compatible with the 06 IL insert seat size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom professional familiar with indexable insert toolholders. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or rotating inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key specified by the toolholder manufacturer to achieve proper clamping torque - do not overtighten, as this can fracture carbide inserts. Verify thread form and pitch with a thread gauge before committing to a full production run.
