The insert features a diamond shape with a 35-degree included angle, a neutral hand orientation, and a chamfered and honed cutting edge. With a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle (0.375 inches), a 3\/16-inch thickness (0.1875 inches), and a 1\/64-inch corner radius (0.0156 inches), it is engineered for precision material removal in turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this insert on compatible toolholders using clamp and pin holding methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for use on CNC lathes and turning centers in both production and job-shop environments. Its primary workpiece materials are steel (ISO code P) and cast iron (ISO code K), making it well suited for a wide range of general machining applications. The MV chip breaker geometry supports efficient chip control across finishing to medium roughing passes. The insert carries both ANSI and ISO standards compliance and corresponds to ISO designation VNMG160404MV. It is a multi-use tool applicable across turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKCP25C grade with multilayer CVD coating: TiN outer layer, Al2O3 mid-layer, TiCN base layer for wear and crater resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiamond insert shape (V) with 35-degree included angle and negative rake angle for rigid, stable cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMV chip breaker geometry supports turning, facing, boring, back turning, and back boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 cutting edges per insert maximize tool economy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChamfered and honed cutting edge style reduces chipping on interrupted and continuous cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with both ANSI and ISO standards; ISO designation VNMG160404MV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard VNMG331MV-profile insert compatible with KENLOC-series toolholders and any ANSI or ISO-compliant VNMG toolholder accepting a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle insert with clamp and pin holding.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Seat the insert fully against the toolholder pocket seating surfaces before tightening the clamp; do not force an insert that does not seat cleanly, as a misaligned insert can fracture under cutting load. Follow the toolholder manufacturer's clamping torque specification for the specific toolholder in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG331MV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG160404MV\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 Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Layers\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN \/ Al2O3 \/ TiCN (Multilayer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond (V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\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: 20 degrees\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\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\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: MV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered and Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp and Pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (P), Cast Iron (K)\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: 0.03 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: 7036173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732872823090,"sku":"7036173","price":44.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6252217516b18bbf0226402f0c33dc19.jpg?v=1788747764","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-7036173-vnmg331mv-kcp25c-carbide-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
