It carries a TiN (titanium nitride) PVD coating and cuts a partial profile 55-degree thread form across a range of 48 to 16 threads per inch, covering metric pitch equivalents of 0.50 to 1.50 mm. The inscribed circle measures 3\/16 inches and the insert thickness is 0.087 inches. Rated for stainless steel as its primary workpiece material, this insert is selected by machinists and tool and die professionals when close-tolerance internal threading is required on demanding materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for internal threading operations in job shop, production, and maintenance machining environments. The IL-style laydown seating geometry keeps the insert low-profile in the holder, which is especially useful when clearing chip flow in blind or deep internal bores. The 55-degree included angle makes it compatible with Unified (UN\/UNF) and Whitworth thread standards, and the partial profile design allows a single insert to cut multiple thread pitches within its TPI range without a separate insert change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with PVD TiN coating for extended tool life on stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand internal partial profile 55-degree thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers 48 to 16 TPI (0.50 to 1.50 mm pitch) in a single insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIL laydown insert style for low-profile, stable seating in the toolholder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle cutting tooth per side; inscribed circle 3\/16 inches, thickness 0.087 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting edge to theoretical edge length 0.0200 inches; face of insert to tip centerline 0.0300 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in toolholders accepting the 08 IL series laydown threading insert style.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Use the manufacturer-specified torque wrench for the clamping screw to avoid fracturing the carbide substrate  -  do not overtighten by feel. Inspect the insert seat and chip groove for debris before installation, and confirm insert orientation matches the left-hand thread direction of the programmed toolpath before running the first part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: IL (Laydown)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: BXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Partial Profile 55 Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48-16 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.50-1.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.087 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge to Theoretical Edge Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0200 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFace of Insert to Tip Centerline\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0300 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Teeth Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23291804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CARMEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 08ILA55BXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CARMEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971376873778,"sku":"08ILA55BXC","price":332.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/08c401714f2f1a11aad3ab67afe35a40.jpg?v=1789956243","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/carmex-08ila55bxc-threading-insert-55-degree-48-16-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
