Carmex 11IRA60BXC Laydown Threading Insert 1/4 in Ic

Product Description

The CARMEX 11IRA60BXC is a solid carbide laydown threading insert designed for right-hand internal thread cutting applications. It produces a partial profile 60-degree thread form and covers a range of 48 to 16 threads per inch, making it suitable for a wide variety of internal threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert features a PVD-applied TiN coating for extended tool life and carries a 1/4 inch inscribed circle with a thickness of 0.127 inches. It is sized to the 11IR insert style and is intended for use by machinists and CNC operators in production or job shop environments.

This insert is suited for internal threading on a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, nonferrous metals, high-temperature alloys, and titanium alloys, consistent with universal material group designations. It is typically used in toolholders accepting the 11IR insert style on CNC turning equipment. The 48 to 16 TPI range accommodates both fine and medium thread pitches in inch-based applications, while the equivalent metric pitch range of 0.50 to 1.50 mm allows use in dual-standard shops.

Compatibility

Designed for use in toolholders accepting the 11IR insert style. Verify toolholder seat geometry and clamping method before installation to confirm fitment with this insert size and laydown configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or removing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to the toolholder manufacturer's specified procedure when clamping the insert. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and prevent premature edge failure.
