Seco 00045833 Threading Insert 14 Tpi Npt Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 00045833 is a solid carbide laydown threading insert engineered for cutting internal NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads at 14 TPI. Belonging to the Snap Tap series, this insert features a CP500 grade micrograin solid carbide substrate with a PVD-applied TiAlN/TiN coating for extended wear resistance across a broad range of workpiece materials. The 60-degree included angle conforms to NPT thread form geometry, and the right-hand configuration suits standard internal threading operations. With a 1/4-inch inscribed circle and a thickness of 0.1181 inches, this insert is sized for compact laydown-style toolholders used in CNC lathes and turning centers.

This insert is intended for internal NPT thread cutting in production turning environments, including pipe fitting, valve body, and fluid system component manufacturing. The universal material grade designation and ISO-standard geometry make it suitable for use across cast iron, steel, stainless, aluminum, and high-temperature alloy workpieces. Machinists and CNC turning specialists install this insert in Snap Tap compatible laydown toolholders for precision pipe thread applications. It ships in individual unit packaging with a minimum order quantity of 2 units.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by CNC machinists and lathe operators. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Use the appropriate torx or hex key as specified by the toolholder manufacturer to secure the insert clamp to the recommended clamping torque for the holder. Inspect the insert pocket for chips or debris before seating to ensure proper contact and thread accuracy.
