Coated with TiAlN via a PVD process, this insert delivers moderate wear resistance and toughness across a broad range of workpiece materials. It features a 60-degree triangle shape with a positive rake angle of 5 degrees and a positive side clearance, making it well suited for finishing and light machining operations. The screw-on holding method provides secure clamping during interrupted and continuous cuts. Machinists and tooling technicians install and index this insert at the machine tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for turning, facing, and boring operations. Primary workpiece materials include stainless steel and superalloys and titanium, with additional suitability for steel, cast iron, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials. The LF chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing and light machining passes, keeping chip control consistent at tighter depths of cut up to 1.25 mm. It conforms to both ANSI and ISO standards, with ANSI code TPMT3252 and ISO code TPMT16T308, making it straightforward to cross-reference in standard tooling catalogs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiAlN PVD coating provides moderate wear resistance and thermal stability across steel, stainless, cast iron, and non-ferrous applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLF chip breaker geometry engineered for finishing and light machining with maximum depth of cut of 1.25 mm (0.0492 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake and positive side clearance reduce cutting forces and heat generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-on mounting method ensures repeatable insert indexing and secure seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree cutting edges per insert maximize tool life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO standards for broad cross-reference compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a screw-on turning insert conforming to ANSI insert code TPMT3252 and ISO insert code TPMT16T308, compatible with toolholders designed for TPMT-style inserts with a screw-on clamping system.
