It features a solid carbide substrate with a Duratomic CVD multilayer coating — TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr — in the TP2501 grade, targeting steel, stainless steel, and cast iron workpiece materials. The insert has an 80-degree diamond shape (C), a negative rake geometry, and a 0-degree relief angle (clearance code N). The inscribed circle measures 0.5000 inches, the corner radius is 0.0157 inches (1\/64 inch), and the insert thickness is 0.1874 inches (3\/16 inch). The M5 chip breaker geometry with a chamfered and honed cutting edge style supports medium-range material grades P10 through P35. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for medium to semi-finishing turning operations on steel and stainless steel components in both job shop and production environments. The four cutting edges per insert and multi-use application capability — boring, facing, and turning — make it a versatile tool for general lathe work. It is compatible with CNMG-style toolholders that accept a clamp, pin, or lever-lock insert holding method. The maximum depth of cut is 0.4921 inches, and the insert length is 0.5079 inches, placing it in the 0.5000 to 0.6000 inch length range. Secondary workpiece materials include stainless steel and cast iron. The ISO code for this insert is CNMG120404-M5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuratomic CVD coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) in TP2501 grade for extended tool life on steel and stainless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e80-degree diamond insert shape with negative rake and 0-degree relief for stable, rigid cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM5 chip breaker geometry with chamfered and honed edge for consistent chip control in medium-cut applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour indexable cutting edges per insert for maximized value per tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with clamp, pin, and lever-lock toolholder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ISO standards; ISO designation CNMG120404-M5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNMG-style turning toolholders that accept clamp, pin, or lever-lock holding methods.

Power down and de-energize the machine tool before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and manufacturer-recommended clamping hardware to seat the insert securely in the toolholder pocket — do not overtighten by hand estimation alone. Inspect the insert seat and shim for damage before installing a new cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: CNMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CNMG431-M5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: CNMG120404-M5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP2501\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN, Al2O3, Cr (Duratomic CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 80 (Code C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80 degrees\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 (Clearance Code N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5079 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1874 inches (3\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0157 inches (1\/64 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2028 inches (5.15 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4921 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: M5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chamfered and Honed\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 Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel (M), Cast Iron (K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: P10, P20, P30, P35\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Boring, Facing, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\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: 02960538\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563190419762,"sku":"02960538","price":255.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/821222a55faa87407c8d07a7e7ade65f_908bd325-e409-4bbd-aefe-603ed0597b4c.jpg?v=1786492604","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-02960538-turning-insert-cnmg431-m5-tp2501-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
