The insert carries a BXC manufacturer grade and features a PVD-applied TiN coating for improved wear resistance and tool life. With a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and a thickness of 0.146 inches, this right-hand insert fits standard 16IR-style toolholders. It is suited for use across a wide range of workpiece materials, making it a versatile choice for production threading operations. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in plumbing, HVAC fabrication, and industrial piping applications are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in internal NPT thread cutting applications on lathes and CNC turning centers. The 30-degree included angle and 8 TPI geometry match standard NPT taper thread profiles used in pipe fittings, valves, and fluid system components. The universal material compatibility designation covers ferrous and non-ferrous metals, stainless, high-temp alloys, and non-metallic machinable materials, making this insert appropriate for job shops and production environments handling varied material grades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVD TiN coating applied via physical vapor deposition for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand internal NPT thread geometry at 8 TPI with 30-degree included angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch inscribed circle (0.3750 inches) fits 16IR-style toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUniversal workpiece material compatibility across material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified to CE, ISO 13485:2016, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in 16IR-style laydown threading toolholders.

Power down and lock out the machine before seating or replacing the insert. Ensure the insert pocket and clamping surfaces are clean and free of chips before securing the insert to manufacturer torque specifications for the toolholder. Verify thread profile and taper with a calibrated NPT thread gauge after the first test pass before committing to full production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16IR\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: BXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 TPI\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: NPT\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: 0.1460 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN Coated (PVD Process)\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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 16IR8NPTBXC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CARMEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52045022691634,"sku":"16IR8NPTBXC","price":288.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0103875ece23f70f62f6fd056c6cd29b_21907c0f-afc8-4e0e-ae46-e32212359364.jpg?v=1790030280","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/carmex-16ir8nptbxc-threading-insert-8-tpi-npt-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
