It carries the IC20 uncoated carbide grade and is designed for positive-rake external turning operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. The insert features a 35-degree diamond shape (V-code) with a clearance code of C and tolerance code of G, making it suitable for precision finishing and semi-finishing passes. It measures 0.6535 inches in length with a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle, a corner radius of 0.0079 inches, and an insert thickness of 0.1874 inches. Screw-held mounting keeps the insert secure under cutting loads. Material grades C2 and C3 apply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in general turning applications targeting non-ferrous metals, stainless steels, and heat-resistant alloys, corresponding to ISO workpiece material groups K, M, and N. The AS chip breaker geometry promotes controlled chip formation during light to medium finishing cuts. It is commonly installed in standard VCGT-style toolholders on production turning centers and manual lathes in manufacturing and machining environments. Maximum depth of cut is 0.0980 inches (2.50 mm). The insert meets ISO 13399 standards for cutting tool data representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVCGT330AS insert style with 35-degree diamond shape and positive rake geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIC20 uncoated solid carbide grade suited for finishing passes on K, M, and N workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAS chip breaker for controlled chip evacuation in light to medium cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner radius of 0.0079 inches for fine surface finish work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-held insert mounting for repeatable positioning in compatible toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ISO 13399 cutting tool data standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VCGT-style screw-clamp turning toolholders compatible with a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle insert.
