It features an AlTiN finish applied via PVD coating process, which improves wear resistance and thermal stability during threading operations. The insert is left-hand orientation with a 60-degree included angle and a corner radius of 0.0075 inches (0.19 mm). It carries insert size designation 3 and a manufacturer grade of KCU10, suited for demanding threading applications on CNC lathes and turning centers. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers of this insert type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for external threading operations producing UN-standard thread forms at 16 TPI in left-hand configurations. It is typically used on CNC turning centers, manual lathes, and threading toolholders compatible with the Top Notch insert system. Common applications include production threading of fastener features, fittings, and threaded shaft ends in metalworking environments. The AlTiN PVD coating makes it suitable for dry or semi-dry cutting conditions on steels and other ferrous materials where heat resistance is a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbide substrate with AlTiN PVD coating for extended wear life in threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 TPI external thread pitch for UN-standard thread forms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand insert orientation for left-hand thread cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60-degree included angle matches standard UN thread geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner radius of 0.0075 inches (0.19 mm) for precise thread root form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Notch series insert style (NTC3L16E) for compatibility with Top Notch toolholding system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with Top Notch series threading toolholders that accept NTC insert style, size 3.

Ensure the toolholder pocket is clean and free of chips before seating the insert. Left-hand inserts require correct spindle rotation and feed direction setup to avoid tool damage or workpiece scrap. Always verify thread pitch and insert orientation against the job drawing before cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: NTC\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: KCU10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0075 inches (0.19 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.195 inches (4.95 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Top Notch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.3 x 3.8 x 1.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Package Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23291804\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: 4176194\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51750636585266,"sku":"4176194","price":244.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6c77b87c14fa23ffcd7400ec5e410ff4_508137ce-e0a5-4fbf-b1e4-e74e739c987e.jpg?v=1788917608","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-4176194-threading-insert-16-tpi-left-hand","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
