It features a PVD-applied TiAlN coating over a carbide substrate, delivering moderate wear resistance and toughness across a broad range of workpiece materials. The insert carries a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) shape with a neutral hand orientation and a positive rake and side clearance geometry. With a 0.0079-inch corner radius and an inscribed circle of 0.375 inches, this insert is engineered for finishing and light machining operations on turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring applications. It is installed via screw-on holding method and meets both ANSI and ISO standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for use on CNC lathes and turning centers in job shop, production, and contract machining environments. The KC5025 grade targets steel (P), stainless steel (M), cast iron (K), aluminum and non-ferrous materials (N), and superalloys and titanium (S), making it a versatile option when a single insert grade must handle multiple workpiece materials across a shift. The LF chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing cuts and light material removal, where surface finish and dimensional control are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eANSI code VBMT3305 \/ ISO code VBMT160402 for standardized toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKC5025 grade with PVD TiAlN coating for moderate wear resistance and toughness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond insert shape enables access in tight clearance and profiling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLF chip breaker designed for finishing and light machining cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake geometry reduces cutting forces on difficult-to-machine materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-use capability across turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 cutting edges per insert for extended tool life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VBMT-style screw-on toolholders conforming to ANSI and ISO standards with a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle seat.

Use the appropriate torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer when securing the screw-on clamp screw; do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended clamping torque. Inspect the toolholder pocket and locating surfaces for chips or damage before seating the insert. Confirm insert index and edge condition visually before resuming cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT3305\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC5025\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\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: V - Diamond (Rhombic) 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.61 mm (1.3076 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0079 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1732 inches\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\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\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: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: LF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Finishing, Light Machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHolding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: P, M, K, N, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring, Back Turning, Back Boring\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: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 2425819\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739993440562,"sku":"2425819","price":258.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f7b994366d65b27cebf78ac8abf69e57.jpg?v=1788821246","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-2425819-turning-insert-vbmt3305lf-kc5025","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
