It carries a multilayer CVD coating of TiC, TiCN, and TiN under the KC850 grade designation, which provides moderate wear resistance and toughness across a range of workpiece materials. The insert features a triangular shape with a 60-degree included angle, a 5\/8-inch inscribed circle, 1\/4-inch thickness, and a 1\/32-inch corner radius. With three available cutting edges and a flat-top chip breaker, this insert is suited for general turning, facing, and boring operations on CNC and manual lathes. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert as a standard indexable tooling component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 1183323 is designed for use in steel and stainless steel applications as primary workpiece materials, with capability in cast iron and special or super alloys as well. The KC850 grade balances wear resistance with toughness, making it a practical choice for moderate cutting conditions across production and job-shop environments. It is identified by ANSI insert code TPG542 and ISO insert code TPG270608, allowing straightforward cross-referencing to toolholder specifications. The flat-top geometry and honed cutting edge support consistent chip control in continuous turning and light-to-moderate facing passes. Maximum depth of cut is 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKC850 grade with multilayer CVD TiC\/TiCN\/TiN coating for wear resistance and toughness across steel, stainless, cast iron, and super alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTPG triangular insert shape with 60-degree included angle and three usable cutting edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch inscribed circle (0.625 inches) and 1\/4-inch insert thickness (0.250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/32-inch corner radius (0.0313 inches) with honed cutting edge style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat-top chip breaker geometry with positive rake and positive side clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI code TPG542 and ISO code TPG270608 for direct toolholder compatibility lookup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for turning, facing, and boring multi-use applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in toolholders accepting TPG542 geometry inserts per ANSI and ISO standards.
