It carries the ANSI designation VBMT331FG and ISO designation VBMT160404FG, coated via CVD process with alternating layers of Al2O3 and TiCN for high wear resistance. The insert measures 0.654 inches in length with a 3\/8-inch (0.375 inches) inscribed circle, a 0.016-inch corner radius, and a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) geometry. With a neutral hand orientation and positive rake and side clearance, it delivers controlled chip formation during finishing cuts with a maximum depth of cut of 0.059 inches. Installation is performed by licensed machinists and CNC operators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for turning applications on stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpieces where high wear resistance and edge toughness are required. The FG chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing passes, producing consistent surface finishes on ISO material groups M and S. It fits toolholders designed for VBMT-style screw-lock inserts and is suited for both manual and CNC lathe operations in production and job-shop environments. The two available cutting edges support cost-effective use before replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCVD-applied Al2O3 and TiCN multilayer coating for high wear resistance on stainless steel and superalloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape provides strong edge geometry with positive clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFG chip breaker optimized for finishing-grade chip control at shallow depths of cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation fits standard VBMT screw-lock toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended usable life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.016-inch corner radius suited to tight tolerance finishing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for VBMT331-style screw-lock turning toolholders accepting a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle insert.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp screw for debris or wear before seating a new insert. Do not exceed the manufacturer-specified depth of cut for this insert geometry, as overloading a finishing-grade insert can cause premature edge failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Series\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TT9225\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Al2O3 and TiCN (CVD process)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: V - Diamond (Rhombic) 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.654 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.187 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.016 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.173 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.059 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Superalloy, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5520513\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"INGERSOLL CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52043196072242,"sku":"5520513","price":324.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/995d807e59b0b86ebd38e1f788fa5d44.jpg?v=1790028908","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ingersoll-cutting-tools-5520513-turning-insert-vbmt331fg","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
