Coated with TiAlN via a PVD process, this insert handles the demands of American Buttress thread profiles at 16 to 20 TPI. The NTB2RB style features a right-hand cutting orientation and a 45-degree included angle, making it a reliable choice for machinists and toolroom professionals running lathes or thread-turning centers where consistent thread geometry and wear resistance are required.

This insert is suited for threading operations on American Buttress thread forms, covering both internal and external applications. The KC5010 grade with TiAlN finish performs well across a range of materials classified under C3 and C4 material grades. It is used in precision machining environments including production shops and job shops where repeatable thread quality is critical. The insert seats into compatible Top Notch toolholders and is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.
