Manufactured from solid carbide and coated via CVD with a TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr multilayer Duratomic coating, this insert delivers consistent performance in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron applications. It carries manufacturer grade TP2501 and features an F1 chip breaker geometry with a sharp cutting edge style and a positive rake angle. The insert has a 0.25 inch inscribed circle, a 0.0315 inch corner radius, and an insert thickness of 0.0937 inches. Three cutting edges are available per insert, making it a multi-tipped, multi-use tool suitable for turning, facing, boring, and back turning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for use in production and job-shop environments where steel and stainless steel workpieces are common. Material grades P10, P20, P30, and P35 indicate strong suitability for a range of steel types, with secondary coverage for stainless steel and cast iron. Its screw-holding method and TCMT pocket geometry make it compatible with standard TCMT toolholders. The F1 chip breaker is optimized for light to medium depths of cut, making it a practical choice for general turning and finishing passes where controlled chip evacuation matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCVD Duratomic multilayer coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) for extended tool life in steel and stainless applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eF1 chip breaker geometry with positive rake and sharp cutting edge for clean chip control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree usable cutting edges per insert for efficient cost-per-edge value\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for back turning, boring, facing, and turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-clamped TCMT pocket holding method for secure, repeatable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ISO standards; ISO code TCMT110208-F1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard TCMT-style screw-on toolholders.
