It features a multilayer CVD coating — TiCN, Al2O3, and TiOCN — engineered to balance wear resistance and toughness on steel and stainless steel workpieces. The 35-degree diamond (rhombic) insert shape, combined with a chamfered and honed cutting edge, suits both roughing and medium machining operations. With a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle, a 1\/64-inch corner radius, and four usable cutting edges, this insert is a productive choice for CNC turning centers where insert life and predictable performance are priorities. Licensed machinists and CNC operators handling ferrous and difficult-to-machine materials are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring applications on steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium. Its negative rake geometry and negative side clearance make it best suited for rigid setups and stable fixturing, typical in production turning environments. The MP chip breaker geometry supports chip control across a range of feed rates and depths of cut, reducing the risk of chip fouling on automated equipment. The insert is held using either a clamp or pin method, compatible with standard KENLOC toolholders from the same series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVNMG331MP geometry with 35-degree diamond insert shape for low cutting forces in ferrous applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultilayer CVD coating: TiCN, Al2O3, and TiOCN for wear resistance and toughness across steel and stainless steel grades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMP chip breaker supports roughing and medium machining with effective chip control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour usable cutting edges per insert for extended tool economy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with both clamp and pin holding methods in KENLOC-series toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO standards, ANSI code VNMG331, ISO code VNMG160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in KENLOC-series toolholders.

Always index or replace inserts with the spindle stopped and machine power locked out per shop LOTO procedures. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping hardware for wear or debris before seating a new insert. Machinists should verify depth-of-cut and feed parameters against the insert's rated maximum depth of cut before initiating a cut cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCM25B\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: TiCN, Al2O3, TiOCN (Multilayer CVD)\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: MP (Roughing, Medium Machining)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.61 mm (1.3076 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inches (0.0156 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1500 inches (3.81 mm)\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\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered, Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Superalloys, Titanium\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: 0.022 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: 5591789\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727627387186,"sku":"5591789","price":224.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dad395a3122734d46e37610ef082b46e.jpg?v=1788680250","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-5591789-turning-insert-vnmg331mp-kcm25b","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
