Manufactured to ISO code TPGN160308T and ANSI code TPG322T, this insert features a TiAlN PVD coating applied over the carbide substrate, providing thermal resistance and wear protection during interrupted or continuous cuts. The insert measures 0.3750 inches inscribed circle diameter, 0.6496 inches in length, and 0.1252 inches thick. With three cutting edges, a positive rake geometry, and a T-Land cutting edge style, it delivers controlled chip formation at the tool-workpiece interface. Licensed machinists and CNC tooling specialists are the primary installers of this insert type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is engineered for milling steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium, corresponding to ISO material groups P, M, and S. The KC725M grade places it in material grades C5, C6, and C7, making it suitable for a broad range of cutting conditions from semi-finishing to light roughing. The flat-top chip breaker geometry and neutral hand orientation support versatile mounting in compatible TPGN-series toolholders. It is appropriate for both production shop and job-shop milling environments where consistent edge life across difficult workpiece materials is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with TiAlN PVD coating for high-temperature wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree usable cutting edges per insert, maximizing cost-per-edge value\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle with T-Land cutting edge style for controlled entry into steel and superalloy cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat-top chip breaker supports stable chip evacuation without complex geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation provides flexibility across multiple toolholder configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to both ANSI and ISO insert standards for broad toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in TPGN-series screw-clamped milling toolholders accepting a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle triangular insert.

Verify the toolholder pocket is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the insert to prevent improper contact and premature edge failure. Use the manufacturer-specified screw torque range for the toolholder series — do not over-torque the clamping screw, as this can fracture the carbide insert. Inspect the cutting edge condition at regular intervals and index or replace the insert before catastrophic edge failure occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPGN160308T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPG322T\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: TPGN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Triangle\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: KC725M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C5, C6, C7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1252 inches (1\/8 inch nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0315 inches (0.80 mm, 1\/32 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: T-Land\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\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: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double Sided\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 322\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.075 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: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1183018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755782439218,"sku":"1183018","price":261.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a43ed7455b51df15437502d38da3fc07.jpg?v=1788959630","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1183018-milling-insert-tpgn160308t-kc725m-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
