Manufactured from micrograin solid carbide in the CP500 grade with a PVD coating, this insert delivers consistent edge integrity and wear resistance across a wide range of workpiece materials. It carries an LCMR insert style with a neutral hand orientation and an FT chipbreaker geometry. The cutting height measures 0.219 inches with a maximum cutting width of 0.315 inches (8.00 mm) and a corner radius of 0.031 inches. It is intended for single-end use and features a 7-degree relief angle for efficient chip clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for multi-directional turning and grooving applications in both production and job-shop environments. The CP500 PVD-coated micrograin carbide grade supports cutting in a broad spectrum of workpiece material categories including hardened materials (H), cast iron (K), stainless steel (M), non-ferrous materials (N), steel (P), and superalloys (S). It is commonly installed on CNC turning centers where controlled chip formation and consistent dimensional accuracy are required across high-mix or high-volume runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCP500 micrograin solid carbide grade with PVD coating for extended tool life across multiple material classes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFT chipbreaker geometry promotes controlled chip formation in grooving and turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation provides flexibility in toolholder setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-degree relief angle reduces cutting forces and supports clean edge engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum cutting width of 0.315 inches (8.00 mm) suits medium-width grooving applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end insert design in the MDT series for compatibility with MDT toolholding systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in SECO MDT series toolholders that accept LCMR-style inserts with the LCMR300808-0800-FT seat geometry.
