It features a multilayer CVD coating — TiCN, Al2O3, and TiOCN applied via MTCVD — engineered for wear resistance and thermal stability in interrupted and continuous cuts. The 80-degree diamond shape (Insert Shape Code C) provides a strong cutting edge, while the LF chip breaker geometry promotes positive rake cutting with controlled chip flow. The insert measures 9.67 mm (0.3808 decimal inch) in length with a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and a 1\/32-inch corner radius. It mounts via screw-on holding method and is suited for licensed machinists and CNC turning specialists working in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for turning, facing, and boring operations on steel and cast iron workpieces — ISO material groups P and K. The positive rake angle of 5 degrees and honed cutting edge style make it well suited for finishing and light-to-medium roughing passes. The LF chip breaker geometry handles chip control across a range of depths of cut up to 0.1268 inch. Two cutting edges per insert are available, supporting cost-efficient use in high-volume turning programs on CNC lathes and turning centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultilayer CVD coating (TiCN \/ Al2O3 \/ TiOCN) via MTCVD for heat and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80-degree diamond insert shape with 1\/32-inch corner radius for strong, versatile geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLF chip breaker with positive 5-degree rake angle for controlled chip flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-on mounting with 0.1732-inch (4.40 mm) hole diameter for secure tool retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended service life per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for steel (ISO P) and cast iron (ISO K) workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CCMT3252LF insert is a screw-on style compatible with toolholders accepting CCMT 32.52 inserts per ANSI and ISO standards.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is in a safe index position before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully in the pocket and torque the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specification — do not overtighten, as carbide inserts are brittle and susceptible to fracture under uneven clamping force. Inspect the pocket seat and shim for wear or debris before installing a new edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: CCMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: CCMT32.52\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CCMT3252LF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCK15B\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, MTCVD Process)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 80 (Shape Code C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: LF\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: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.67 mm (0.3808 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (0.1563 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.0313 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1732 inch (4.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1268 inch\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 Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron (ISO P, K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C3, C4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring\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: 0.01 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: 5698216\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731818250546,"sku":"5698216","price":212.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bbcdc5a197e23376d317549ec2aa8d41_0334ba30-3a6f-4626-b1d0-dcf9fb57c67e.jpg?v=1788735268","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-5698216-ccmt3252lf-kck15b-turning-insert-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
