Seco 02435716 Threading Insert 8 Tpi Api Round CP300

Product Description

The SECO 02435716 is a laydown threading insert designed for external API Round thread cutting at 8 threads per inch (TPI). Built from solid carbide in the CP300 grade, it carries a PVD-applied TiAlN/TiN coating that improves wear resistance and surface hardness during high-speed threading operations. The insert follows the 27ER style with an inscribed circle of 15.88 mm (0.6252 inches) and a thickness of 6.15 mm (0.2421 inches). It features a 60-degree included angle and a 0.4600-inch corner radius. Machinists and CNC lathe operators working in oil and gas or related industries install this insert on compatible tool holders for producing API Round external threads in steel workpieces.

This insert is suited for external threading operations on steel components where API Round thread profiles are required. The right-hand cutting orientation and 8 TPI specification align it with standard API Round thread forms used in pipe and coupling applications common to the oil and gas sector. The CP300 grade and PVD TiAlN/TiN coating make it particularly effective in steel (P-class workpiece material, ISO designation P). It belongs to the Snap Tap series and is packaged individually, with a minimum order quantity of 2 units.

Compatibility

Designed for use in 27ER-style laydown threading insert seats on compatible external threading tool holders. Intended for right-hand external threading of steel workpieces requiring an API Round thread form at 8 TPI.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to secure the insert clamp to the manufacturer-specified seat without over-torquing the clamping screw. Verify thread profile and fit against API Round thread gauges after the first threading pass before continuing production runs.
