Manufactured to the VPGR331 standard with a K313 fine-grain carbide grade, this insert features a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle, a 0.1875 inch thickness, and a 0.0156 inch corner radius. The uncoated WC-Co substrate is optimized for tight-tolerance profiling work. With a neutral hand orientation and positive rake geometry, it suits applications where clean, controlled cuts are required. Machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments install this insert for external profiling and turning operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is rated for primary workpiece materials including non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium, making it well suited for aerospace, medical, and precision manufacturing environments. The VPGR331 geometry with a 35-degree included angle and 8-degree relief angle allows for access into tight contours during profiling passes. It uses a clamp-style holding method and delivers up to 0.2179 inches maximum depth of cut per pass. The insert conforms to ISO code VCGR160404 and VPGR331 standards, ensuring compatibility with toolholders designed for that geometry family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine-grain K313 solid carbide grade for non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated WC-Co substrate for sharp, low-friction cutting edge performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle of 10 degrees reduces cutting forces during profiling passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35-degree included angle with 8-degree relief angle enables contouring in restricted geometries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation with clamp-style insert holding for secure seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended tooling economy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert conforms to VPGR331 and VCGR160404 standards and is designed for use in Top Notch series toolholders and other clamp-style holders engineered for VPGR331 geometry inserts.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing any insert. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw to avoid microfracture of the carbide body — refer to the toolholder manufacturer specifications for fastener torque values. Inspect the insert seat and clamping pin for debris or wear before securing the new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: VPGR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: K313\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine Grain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Parallelogram\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (9.53 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (4.76 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6538 inches (16.61 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0156 inches (0.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2179 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: WC-Co\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Ferrous Metal; Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VCGR160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: VPGR331; VCGR160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Top Notch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Profiling; Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0229 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1163286\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727187181874,"sku":"1163286","price":219.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/aeddcd2130655b4e27d8fecb71e100e3.jpg?v=1788674486","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1163286-vpgr331-k313-profiling-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
