Seco 00049547 Laydown Threading Insert 0.5mm Iso

Product Description

The SECO 00049547 is a laydown threading insert engineered for external ISO threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Built from solid carbide with a PVD-applied TiAlN/TiN coating in the CP500 grade, it delivers consistent thread form at a 0.5mm pitch with a 60-degree included angle. The insert seats in a laydown orientation and is designed for right-hand cutting. With an inscribed circle of 9.53mm (0.3752 inches) and a thickness of 3.47mm (0.1366 inches), it fits standard 16ER toolholders. Machinists, CNC operators, and toolroom professionals install this insert for precision external thread cutting across a broad range of workpiece materials.

This insert is suited for external ISO threading on a wide variety of workpiece materials, including cast iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and high-temperature alloys, as indicated by its universal primary workpiece material rating covering K, M, N, P, and S material codes. It is part of the Snap Tap series and is applicable in both production and job-shop environments where consistent ISO thread profiles at 0.5mm pitch are required. Typical use cases include threading steel and stainless components on CNC turning equipment.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and indexed by a qualified machinist or CNC toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing the insert. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw for the toolholder manufacturer specification — do not overtighten by hand. Inspect the toolholder pocket for chips or wear before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and thread accuracy.
