Seco 02529926 Carbide Thread Mill Insert 14 Tpi Npt

Product Description

The SECO 02529926 is a 13XMS-style carbide thread mill insert designed for cutting NPT-profile threads at 14 threads per inch. Manufactured to grade CP500 with a PVD-applied TiAlN/TiN coating, this insert delivers the wear resistance and edge integrity that thread milling demands in both internal and external applications. The carbide substrate combined with PVD coating makes it suitable for a range of workpiece materials including cast iron, stainless steel, aluminum, non-ferrous alloys, and high-temperature alloys. Thread mill inserts of this type are installed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.

This insert is configured for NPT thread profiles at 14 TPI and performs in both internal and external thread milling operations. It is well suited for machining NPT pipe threads on components such as fittings, manifolds, and valve bodies. Compatible workpiece material codes include K (cast iron), M (stainless steel), N (non-ferrous/aluminum), P (steel), and S (heat-resistant superalloys), covering a broad range of shop applications in manufacturing and industrial machining environments.

Installation Notes

Thread mill inserts must be seated correctly in the matching toolholder and secured per the toolholder manufacturer torque guidelines before use. Ensure the CNC machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is placed in a safe, locked-out state before changing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or damage at each change. Do not exceed the cutting parameters specified by the toolholder manufacturer for this insert style and grade.
