Kennametal 1017417 Triangle Cbt Chipbreaker Insert

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1017417 is a triangular indexable insert with a CBT chipbreaker geometry, designed for metal cutting applications requiring controlled chip formation. The insert features a 3/8 inch inscribed circle and an effective chipbreaker width of 0.11 inches. This style of indexable insert is installed into compatible toolholders used in turning, boring, and facing operations on CNC lathes and manual turning centers. Installation and replacement are performed by machinists and tooling technicians as part of routine insert indexing and changeover procedures.

This insert is suited for general turning operations where chip control is a priority, particularly in production environments machining steel, alloy steel, and similar ferrous workpiece materials. The CBT chipbreaker geometry is intended for light to moderate depth-of-cut passes where predictable chip breaking reduces the risk of chip entanglement and surface finish issues. It is packaged individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it appropriate for shops stocking inserts in volume.

Key Features

• Triangular insert geometry with CBT chipbreaker for controlled chip evacuation
• 3/8 inch inscribed circle for compatibility with standard triangular insert toolholders
• 0.11 inch effective chipbreaker width for light to moderate cutting passes
• Indexable design allows multiple cutting edges per insert, reducing tooling cost per edge
• Packaged as single-unit quantity; minimum order quantity of 10 units per order

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard triangular insert toolholders that accept 3/8 inch inscribed circle indexable inserts with CBT chipbreaker geometry. Consult toolholder documentation to confirm insert seat and clamping system compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Indexable insert replacement is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before accessing the toolholder. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to loosen the insert clamping screw, seat the new insert fully against the pocket locating surfaces, and retorque the clamp screw per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the insert pocket for wear or damage before installing a new insert.
