It carries the industry standard number VNMG331-FF2 and the ISO designation VNMG160404-FF2. The insert features a 35-degree diamond shape with a negative rake angle and a relief angle of 0 degrees. Applied via CVD process, the Duratomic multilayer coating — TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr — delivers wear resistance and thermal stability on steel and cast iron workpieces. Four available cutting edges make it a cost-effective choice for production turning environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for external turning operations on steel (ISO material code P), cast iron (K), and hard materials (H), corresponding to material grades P10 and P20. Typical applications include back turning, facing, profiling, and general turning. The FF2 chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing and semi-finishing cuts. With a maximum depth of cut of 0.6142 inches and an insert length of 1.307 inches, it handles a broad range of cut depths in both light and moderate material removal passes. It is held in place using clamp, pin, or lever lock toolholding systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVNMG331-FF2 geometry with 35-degree diamond shape and FF2 chip breaker for finishing and semi-finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuratomic CVD multilayer coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) for extended tool life on steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNegative rake, 0-degree relief angle — compatible with clamp, pin, and lever lock toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour cutting edges per insert for maximum utilization per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping at entry and exit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-use capability: back turning, facing, profiling, and turning in a single insert geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in VNMG-style toolholders that accept a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle insert with a 0.15-inch hole diameter, using clamp, pin, or lever lock holding methods.

Always index or replace inserts with the machine powered down and the spindle locked. Seat the insert firmly against the pocket locating surfaces before engaging the clamp, pin, or lever lock mechanism — a rocking insert will cause premature edge failure. Verify toolholder and insert combination compliance with the machine manufacturer's recommended cutting parameters before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG331-FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG160404-FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Series\u003c\/strong\u003e: VNMG-FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 35 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP1501\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: P10, P20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN, Al2O3, Cr (Duratomic CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inch (0.0157 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1874 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.307 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6142 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin, Lever Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (P)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron (K), Hard Material (H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02960041\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559796277554,"sku":"02960041","price":457.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ac7d1e53bda860385e164a1d38bae419_bfdcba11-bad7-4709-b754-66769cfc4a90.jpg?v=1786441340","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-02960041-turning-insert-vnmg331-ff2-tp1501-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
