Manufactured from solid carbide with a PVD-applied TiAlN coating, this insert delivers the wear resistance and thermal stability required for consistent thread form across production runs. It cuts right-hand internal threads at 18 threads per inch (TPI) to the UN standard. The inscribed circle measures 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches) and the insert thickness is 0.1460 inches. Machinists and CNC operators working in job shops or production environments use this insert for threading bores in steel and other ferrous and non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for internal threading operations in residential and industrial machining applications where UN thread standards are required. The 16IR insert style fits compatible 16IR-series threading toolholders. The right-hand cutting geometry is appropriate for standard right-hand thread applications on lathes running conventional spindle direction. It is particularly useful in precision thread work where consistent flank contact and tool life are priorities across multiple parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate for rigidity and long tool life in threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVD TiAlN coating provides heat and wear resistance during high-speed threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18 TPI cutting geometry conforms to UN thread standard for internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand insert orientation for standard lathe threading setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch inscribed circle fits 16IR-style threading toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaydown seating style ensures repeatable indexing and secure insert retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 16IR-series internal threading toolholders that accept laydown-style inserts.

Ensure the lathe or turning center spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or clamp screw driver to seat the insert fully against the toolholder pocket without overtightening. Verify thread pitch and insert orientation against the workpiece specification before initiating a threading pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16IR\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: HG225TR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 TPI\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: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16IR18UNHG225TR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747763454258,"sku":"16IR18UNHG225TR","price":243.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/957c1704497a72d0ba0ce21d52a3ce3f.jpg?v=1788885212","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-16ir18unhg225tr-threading-insert-18-tpi-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
