The insert features a CVD-applied multilayer coating of TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN, which provides thermal resistance, wear resistance, and reduced built-up edge. At 0.654 inches in length with a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle and a 1\/32 inch corner radius, this insert fits standard VNMG toolholders and handles depths of cut up to 0.138 inches. The TF chip breaker geometry promotes positive rake cutting and reliable chip control. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for turning and boring applications on cast iron and steel workpieces, covering ISO material groups K and P. The positive rake geometry and TF chip breaker make it effective across a range of finishing and semi-finishing passes where chip control and surface finish are priorities. The VNMG 35-degree diamond shape provides a strong nose geometry with a clear approach angle, making it a practical choice for both external turning and internal boring on medium to large-diameter bores. It is rated for multi-use applications and fits into standard VNMG clamp-and-pin toolholding systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIC8150 grade solid carbide substrate with CVD multilayer TiCN, Al2O3, and TiN coating for extended tool life on steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTF chip breaker geometry with positive rake angle for controlled chip formation during turning and boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond insert shape (V) with 1\/32 inch corner radius for versatile approach angles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut of 0.138 inches (3.51 mm) suitable for semi-finishing and finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with clamp and pin toolholding methods per ISO 13399 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-use designation covers both external turning and boring operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard VNMG clamp-and-pin toolholders.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Ensure the toolholder pocket and clamping surfaces are free of chips and debris before installing the insert, as contamination affects seating accuracy and can cause premature edge failure. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque guidance for the clamp screw; do not overtighten, as this can fracture the insert body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG 332-TF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: IC8150\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: TiCN, Al2O3, TiN (CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 Degree Diamond (V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.031 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.654 inches (16.61 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.187 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.138 inches (3.51 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: TF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees (N clearance code)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron (K), Steel (P)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Isoturn\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\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: ISCAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5508172\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ISCAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739329495346,"sku":"5508172","price":382.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f5ef72f52e9772535f162abdc7ca7131.jpg?v=1788813211","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/iscar-5508172-vnmg332tf-ic8150-turning-insert-3-8-in-ic","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
