Kennametal 1162192 Cdhb Diamond Turning Insert 5/32 Ic

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 1162192 is a solid carbide, uncoated turning insert in the CDHB style, designed for precision metal cutting operations on CNC and manual turning equipment. This insert features an 80-degree diamond shape with a positive rake angle and a flat-top chipbreaker geometry. With a 5/32-inch (0.1563-inch) inscribed circle and a corner radius of 0.0079 inches, it is engineered for light to moderate material removal on demanding workpiece materials. Holding method is screw-on, and the neutral hand orientation suits a range of tool holders. Solid carbide construction with bright, uncoated finish delivers consistent cutting performance without thermal barrier coatings.

This insert is intended for turning applications involving non-ferrous metals and superalloys including titanium, where sharp cutting edges and precise geometry are critical. The K313 manufacturer grade aligns with C3/C4 carbide classifications, making it well suited for finish and semi-finish turning passes. Typical applications include external and internal turning on lathes and turning centers in production machine shops, aerospace component manufacturing, and precision contract machining environments. Installation is performed by licensed machinists and CNC operators following standard indexable insert tooling procedures.

Key Features

• 80-degree diamond insert shape (CDHB style) with 2 cutting edges
• Solid carbide, bright uncoated finish — no coating delamination risk on non-ferrous cuts
• Positive rake, flat-top chipbreaker geometry for clean chip formation
• Screw-on holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible tool holders
• Neutral hand orientation — compatible with both right-hand and left-hand cutting setups
• Conforms to ANSI and ISO insert standards for broad tool holder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in screw-on indexable turning tool holders that accept CDHB-style inserts with a 5/32-inch inscribed circle and a 0.0840-inch hole diameter. Primary workpiece materials are non-ferrous metals and superalloys including titanium (material codes N and S per ISO classification).

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator with the machine fully powered down and spindle locked before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the correct torque wrench and manufacturer-specified insert screws — do not overtighten the clamping screw, as this can crack the carbide body. Inspect the tool holder pocket and seating surface for chips or wear before seating the insert. Confirm correct hand orientation before resuming cuts.
