Built in a 16 ER insert style with a 27 threads-per-inch (TPI) pitch, this insert targets tapered pipe thread profiles used in sealing applications across industrial and mechanical systems. The micrograin carbide substrate carries a PVD-applied titanium nitride (TiN) coating in the MXC grade, delivering edge hardness and wear resistance across a broad range of workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators in production shops are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert suits right-hand external NPTF threading operations on general-purpose turning equipment. The NPTF thread standard is required where pressure-tight pipe joints must seal without compound or tape, making this insert applicable in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid-transfer component manufacturing. The 16 ER insert style fits compatible ER-series toolholders. The universal primary workpiece material classification covers carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and high-temp alloys, reflecting the breadth of the MXC micrograin grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide micrograin substrate in manufacturer grade MXC for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVD TiN coating increases surface hardness and reduces built-up edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e27 TPI pitch cuts NPTF tapered external pipe threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting geometry, 30-degree included angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch inscribed circle with 0.146 inch thickness fits standard 16 ER toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal material compatibility: carbon steel, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous, and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in 16 ER-style laydown threading toolholders that accept a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle insert.

Power down and lock out the machine before seating or changing the insert. Confirm the insert pocket is clean and free of chips before clamping, as debris under the insert seat affects thread accuracy and can fracture the carbide. Always verify toolholder torque requirements per the toolholder manufacturer documentation rather than estimating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 ER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\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: MXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (PVD Coated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.146 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal (H, K, M, N, P, S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: CE, ISO 13485:2016, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001\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: 16ER27NPTFMXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CARMEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52039769882930,"sku":"16ER27NPTFMXC","price":288.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8e746ba25a7066a6b231833142e599a3.jpg?v=1790026440","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/carmex-16er27nptfmxc-threading-insert-27-tpi-nptf-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
