It features a PVD-applied TiAlN coating that delivers high wear resistance across a range of cutting conditions. The insert carries a 35-degree diamond (rhombic) shape with a neutral hand orientation, a 0.008 inch corner radius, and a 0.375 inch inscribed circle diameter. With four usable cutting edges and a negative rake and clearance configuration, it is suited for productive material removal in turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations. Licensed machinists and CNC lathe operators are the typical users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for medium machining chip breaker applications. Primary workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, making it broadly applicable across job shops, aerospace component machining, and general precision turning environments. It conforms to ANSI insert code VNGP3305 and ISO insert code VNGP160402, allowing direct cross-reference with ANSI and ISO tooling systems. The insert is held by clamp or pin style toolholders that accept VNGP geometry inserts with negative side clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKCU10 grade with PVD TiAlN coating for high wear resistance in steel, stainless steel, and superalloy cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond (V-shape) with four cutting edges for extended tool life per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.375 inch inscribed circle, 0.1875 inch thickness, and 0.008 inch corner radius for consistent dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping during interrupted and continuous cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut up to 0.4354 inches supports both roughing and semi-finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-use capability across turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VNGP-geometry toolholders with clamp or pin holding method and negative side clearance, compatible with ANSI VNGP3305 and ISO VNGP160402 insert seat specifications.

Seat and clamping surfaces should be cleaned before seating the insert to ensure proper contact and runout accuracy. Clamp torque and holder condition should be verified per the toolholder manufacturer guidelines. Do not operate the insert beyond its rated maximum depth of cut or outside recommended cutting parameters for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNGP3305\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNGP160402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCU10\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: 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\u003eInscribed Circle Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 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\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3076 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: 0.150 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4354 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium Machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C3, C4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys, Titanium, Cast Iron, Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENLOC\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: 0.0224 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: 4045146\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728058745138,"sku":"4045146","price":227.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f140f14c50a4e7c1b1007b0da81c2f0c.jpg?v=1788687230","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-4045146-turning-insert-vngp3305-kcu10-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
