Kyocera TBR01612 Turning Insert CNMM432MSE KPD001 Pcd

Product Description

The KYOCERA TBR01612 is a single-tipped, uncoated polycrystalline diamond (PCD) turning insert in CNMM style, designed for precision material removal in demanding machining operations. It features an 80-degree diamond insert shape, a neutral hand orientation, and a honed cutting edge for controlled chip formation. With a 0.5-inch inscribed circle and a 0.0313-inch (1/32 inch) corner radius, this insert is engineered for tight tolerances in high-speed finishing and semi-finishing passes. It conforms to ANSI and ISO standards and carries the ISO code CNMM120408M-SE, ensuring drop-in compatibility with standard CNMM toolholders.

This insert is suited for machining non-ferrous metals and superalloys, making it a strong choice for aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing applications where carbide inserts fall short. Typical applications include external turning, boring, facing, internal facing, and chamfering operations. The PCD construction delivers long tool life and consistent surface finish when cutting materials such as aluminum alloys, copper, titanium-based superalloys, and similar difficult-to-cut workpiece materials. It is a multi-use insert appropriate for both roughing setups and light finishing passes within its depth-of-cut range.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard CNMM-style toolholders compatible with ANSI and ISO insert seating. Suitable for external turning, boring, facing, internal facing, and chamfering applications on non-ferrous metals and superalloys.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolholder is properly secured before seating or indexing the insert. Use appropriate clamping hardware per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the insert seat and clamp pin for wear or debris before installation to maintain accurate seating and safe cutting performance.
