The insert carries a TiAlN coating applied via PVD process, which improves wear resistance and thermal stability during high-speed milling operations. With a 1\/4-inch (6.35 mm) inscribed circle and STN insert style geometry, this insert is suited for both internal and external thread milling applications. It is used by machinists and toolroom professionals working in precision thread production on pipe fittings, manifolds, and fluid system components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is appropriate for thread milling operations on CNC machining centers where NPT thread forms are required on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 18 TPI configuration covers standard NPT profiles used widely in plumbing, hydraulic, and pneumatic system components. The TiAlN PVD coating supports extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The insert is packaged individually and is sold in a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it suitable for shops that maintain a stocked insert inventory for recurring thread milling programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbide substrate with TiAlN PVD coating for thermal and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSTN insert style geometry for thread milling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts both internal and external NPT thread forms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18 TPI configuration for standard NPT profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch (6.35 mm) inscribed circle diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-conical insert design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in KENNAMETAL-compatible thread mill toolholders accepting STN-style carbide inserts with a 1\/4-inch inscribed circle.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the CNC program is in a safe state before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully against the pocket locating surfaces and torque the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the insert edge condition and pocket for debris or damage before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: STN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC635M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal and External\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches (6.35 mm)\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\u003eConical\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\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: 2429563\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744930103602,"sku":"2429563","price":1155.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa42262215df3bdeff3e1944cd02ea58.jpg?v=1788862355","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-2429563-carbide-thread-mill-insert-npt-18-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
