It features a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape with a positive rake angle of 15 degrees and a positive side clearance, making it well-suited for finishing operations. The insert carries an FP chip breaker geometry, a honed cutting edge style, and provides two usable cutting edges per insert. With an inscribed circle of 0.375 inches and a corner radius of 0.0156 inches, it is designed for light-depth finishing passes in turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring applications. Licensed machinists and CNC turning professionals are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for use on steel and cast iron workpieces as the primary application, with the KCP10 grade offering high wear resistance on steel (P) materials and moderate wear resistance with toughness on aluminum and non-ferrous (N) materials. It is suitable for both ANSI and ISO tooling systems, carrying ANSI insert code VBMT331 and ISO insert code VBMT160404. The screw-on holding method makes it compatible with standard VBMT-style screw-on insert pockets. Typical applications include finish turning of steel components, cast iron parts, and non-ferrous workpieces where tight tolerances and surface finish are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKCP10 grade with multilayer CVD TiCN plus Al2O3 coating for high wear resistance on steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFP chip breaker geometry optimized for finishing cuts with maximum depth of cut of 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond insert shape with positive rake (15 degrees) and positive side clearance for low cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style for edge stability during light finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert; neutral hand orientation for flexible toolholder use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to both ANSI and ISO insert standards for broad toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VBMT-style screw-on insert pockets conforming to ANSI insert code VBMT331 and ISO insert code VBMT160404.

Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key specified for the insert screw torque per the toolholder manufacturer guidelines, and never overtighten the clamping screw. Inspect the insert pocket and screw for wear or damage 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: VBMT331\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCP10\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN plus Al2O3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: MTCVD (CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches (3\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0156 inches (1\/64 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.61 mm (0.3750 inches width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0492 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1732 inches (4.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief 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\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-On\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, C7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron\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: 0.1 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: 3769038\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51752075690290,"sku":"3769038","price":258.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/daba93feb94f4fab26184baacb8012e1.jpg?v=1788925677","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-3769038-turning-insert-vbmt331fp-kcp10-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
