Running grade TP1501 with a Duratomic CVD coating of TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr, this insert delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a range of ferrous workpiece materials. The F1 chip breaker geometry produces a sharp cutting edge with a positive rake angle and a 1\/32 inch corner radius, supporting controlled chip flow during steel and cast iron operations. With 3 usable cutting edges per insert and screw-type holding, it suits production environments where consistent tool life and repeatable results matter. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shops or production facilities are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for external and internal turning operations including back turning, boring, facing, and straight turning on steel, cast iron, and hard materials. The TP1501 grade targets ISO material groups P (steel) and K (cast iron), with secondary capability in hard materials (H). The TCMT geometry and F1 chip breaker combination handles light-to-moderate depths of cut, making it appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes on CNC lathes in both job shop and production environments. Compatible toolholders use TCMT-style screw-clamp pockets with the corresponding insert pocket geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTP1501 Duratomic CVD coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) for thermal resistance and extended tool life on steel and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eF1 chip breaker with sharp cutting edge and positive rake for controlled chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 cutting edges per insert for cost-effective use in production runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-type insert holding method for secure, repeatable positioning in compatible toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut up to 0.3543 inches for finishing and semi-finishing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ISO standards; ISO code TCMT110208-F1, Industry Standard Number TCMT21.52-F1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and direct-fit insert for TCMT-style screw-clamp turning toolholders accepting a triangular insert with a 1\/4 inch inscribed circle.
