Designed for the KENLOC insert series, this insert features a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) shape, a neutral hand orientation, and a finished honed cutting edge. The inscribed circle measures 3\/8 inches, the insert length is 16.61 mm (0.654 inches), and the corner radius is 1\/64 inches. With four available cutting edges and a chip breaker optimized for finishing operations, this insert is suited for high wear-resistance applications across a range of metallic workpiece materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators typically specify this insert for precision finishing passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations on steel, stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, and cast iron. It carries ANSI insert code VNMG331 and ISO insert code VNMG160404, and conforms to both ANSI and ISO standards. The KC5010 grade delivers high to moderate wear resistance with balanced toughness, making it well suited for finishing cuts on challenging workpiece materials including P, M, K, N, and S material classifications. It is retained in the toolholder via clamp and pin holding methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVNMG331FF geometry with 35-degree diamond shape and negative rake angle for controlled finishing cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKC5010 grade with PVD TiAlN coating for high wear resistance on steel, stainless steel, and superalloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour cutting edges per insert to maximize tool utilization\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFF chip breaker optimized for finishing operations with a maximum depth of cut of 1.25 mm (0.0492 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation compatible with a broad range of KENLOC toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO standards; ANSI code VNMG331, ISO code VNMG160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in KENLOC-series toolholders that accept VNMG-style inserts with a clamp and pin holding method.

The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the toolholder must be secured in the turret before seating or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or clamp screw driver as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the clamp; do not overtighten or substitute fasteners. Inspect the insert pocket and pin locator for debris or wear before seating a new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG331\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: V - Diamond (Rhombic) 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC5010\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\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\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C3, C4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FF (Finishing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.61 mm (0.654 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inches (0.0156 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1500 inches (3.81 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 mm (0.0492 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 degrees (Negative)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENLOC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0223 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: 1601888\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755259232562,"sku":"1601888","price":223.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c0473cb72ad4407da38457e4511ea6e0.jpg?v=1788952778","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1601888-vnmg331ff-kc5010-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
