It features a V-shape diamond (rhombic) geometry with a 35-degree included angle and a 5-degree relief angle, delivering positive rake and positive side clearance for efficient chip formation. The insert is CVD-coated with a multilayer TiN\/Al2O3\/TiCN stack, providing moderate wear resistance and toughness across steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous workpiece materials. With a 0.0156-inch corner radius and a honed cutting edge, this insert is optimized for finishing passes where surface finish and dimensional accuracy matter. Licensed HVAC techs and machinists in production turning environments rely on this insert for consistent, repeatable results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for steel and cast iron machining in finishing applications, including turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring. The KCP25C grade targets steel (P-grade) workpieces requiring moderate wear resistance and toughness, as well as aluminum and non-ferrous (N-grade) materials. It fits screw-on toolholders configured for VBMT-style inserts. The 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and 3\/16-inch thickness make it compatible with standard VBMT toolholder pockets in general-purpose production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCVD multilayer TiN\/Al2O3\/TiCN coating for wear resistance and thermal stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond (rhombic) V-shape geometry with positive rake angle (15 degrees) for efficient cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFP chip breaker optimized for finishing operations with controlled chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping on finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended tool life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-on insert holding method provides rigid, repeatable seating in the toolholder pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a screw-on replacement turning insert for VBMT-style toolholders.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully in the toolholder pocket and secure with the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque using appropriate Torx or hex keys. Inspect the insert seating surface and pocket for chips or debris before installation to prevent rocking, which causes premature edge failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT331\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Insert Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Full Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VBMT160404FP\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: V - Diamond (Rhombic) 35-Degree\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FP (Finishing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: KCP25C\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN \/ Al2O3 \/ TiCN (CVD Multilayer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron (P); Aluminum and Non-Ferrous (N)\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: 16.61 mm (1.3076 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inch (0.0156 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1732 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4354 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\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: B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplicable Operations\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turning, Facing, Boring, Back Turning, Back Boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 insert per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 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: 7026559\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732269039922,"sku":"7026559","price":201.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e50bdd841a28953b4413a85e367ece8c.jpg?v=1788741038","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-7026559-vbmt331fp-kcp25c-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
