The insert features a 60-degree triangular shape with a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle, a 1\/64-inch corner radius, and a positive rake geometry with a honed cutting edge. The FP chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing cuts, controlling chip flow at shallow depths of cut. This insert is intended for use by machinists and toolroom professionals in CNC turning, facing, and boring applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for light finishing passes on a range of workpiece materials, including stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, steel, and cast iron. The positive side clearance and 7-degree relief angle reduce cutting forces and heat buildup during finishing operations. With three usable cutting edges per insert, the TCMT3251FP geometry delivers consistent performance across turning, facing, and internal boring applications on manual and CNC lathes in both job shop and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN PVD coating provides high wear resistance across steel, stainless steel, and cast iron workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFP chip breaker geometry engineered for finishing operations with shallow depths of cut up to 0.049 inches (1.25 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60-degree triangle insert shape with three usable cutting edges for extended tool life per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle of 15 degrees and honed cutting edge reduce cutting forces and thermal load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-on insert holding method ensures secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation — compatible with both right-hand and left-hand toolholder setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in TCMT-style screw-on toolholders accepting a 3251 size code insert with a 0.173-inch (4.40 mm) mounting hole diameter.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torque driver or wrench specified by the toolholder manufacturer when securing the clamping screw — do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating a new edge to ensure proper contact and runout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT3251\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT16T304\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: T - Triangle, 60 degrees included angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.50 mm (0.6496 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (0.1563 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inch (0.0156 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\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.40 mm (0.1732 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees positive\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\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN (TiAlN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KC5010\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FP - Finishing\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 Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C3, C4\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: 3769386\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744600129842,"sku":"3769386","price":242.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cbbcb56ae3f76e0a4c77178ad3e8b57e.jpg?v=1788858846","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-3769386-tcmt3251fp-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
