It carries the DCMT432-M3 industry standard designation and the TP1501 manufacturer grade, featuring a Duratomic CVD coating stack of TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr for extended wear resistance and thermal stability. The 55-degree diamond insert shape (Shape Code D) provides a sharp, defined cutting geometry with a 1\/32-inch corner radius and a chamfered and honed cutting edge. The M3 chip breaker geometry supports consistent chip control across a range of feed rates and depths of cut. This insert is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in production turning, facing, boring, and back-turning applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for primary use on steel workpieces (ISO material code P, material grades P10 and P20) and is also rated for cast iron and hard materials (ISO codes K and H). The DCMT series geometry with the M3 chip breaker performs well in both roughing and semi-finishing passes, particularly in applications where consistent chip evacuation and tool life are priorities. It mounts via screw-holding method and delivers two usable cutting edges per insert, making it cost-effective in high-cycle production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuratomic CVD multilayer coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) for thermal and abrasion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e55-degree diamond insert shape with positive rake for reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM3 chip breaker geometry optimized for steel turning and boring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChamfered and honed cutting edge for edge strength and surface finish consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for extended service life per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-mount holding method compatible with standard DCMT toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard DCMT-style screw-clamp toolholders accepting a 55-degree diamond insert with a 1\/2-inch inscribed circle.

Power down the machine and lock out the spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use a torx or hex key sized for the clamping screw specified by the toolholder manufacturer. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper seating and cutting geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCMT432-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCMT150408-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP1501\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 55 (Code D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.0315 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: 1.2204 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2205 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\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\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: M3\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\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHolding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (P10, P20)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e: Back Turning, Boring, Facing, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 02960899\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51563784110386,"sku":"02960899","price":51.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4809e2f43ad8ca6bca3f149d28828a7b_b570f818-c942-4926-86aa-3fdcf1ba30e0.jpg?v=1786503434","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-02960899-dcmt432-m3-tp1501-turning-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
