It carries industry standard designation DCMT21.51-M3 and ISO code DCMT070204-M3. The insert features a multilayer CVD coating consisting of TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr, which provides thermal resistance and wear protection during extended cutting cycles. The M3 chip breaker geometry uses a chamfered and honed cutting edge with a positive rake angle of 17 degrees, making it well-suited for finishing and semi-finishing operations. Holding is accomplished via screw clamp. Each insert delivers two usable cutting edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is rated for primary use on steel workpieces (ISO P-class, material grades P20, P25, P30, and P35) and is also applicable to stainless steel (ISO M-class) and cast iron (ISO K-class). Typical applications include back turning, boring, facing, and general longitudinal turning on both manual and CNC lathes. It is sized for use in toolholders accepting DCMT-series inserts with a 1\/4 inch inscribed circle. Licensed machinists, toolroom operators, and CNC setup technicians are the primary installers of this insert type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMultilayer CVD coating (TiCN, Al2O3, Cr) for extended tool life in steel cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e55-degree diamond insert shape with neutral hand orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM3 chip breaker with positive rake geometry for controlled chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChamfered and honed cutting edge style reduces edge micro-chipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges per insert for cost efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-clamp holding method ensures repeatable seating and rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for DCMT-series toolholders accepting a 1\/4 inch inscribed circle insert.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolholder is secured before seating or indexing the insert. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key to tighten the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specification; do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket and screw threads for chips or debris before each insert change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCMT21.51-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCMT070204-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond (55 degrees)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN, Al2O3, Cr (Multilayer CVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6142 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/32 inch (0.0937 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\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1142 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2441 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 degrees (Positive)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\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: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (ISO P-class)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel (ISO M-class), Cast Iron (ISO K-class)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: P20, P30, P35\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.016 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 (minimum order quantity: 10)\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: 03310378\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559805452594,"sku":"03310378","price":169.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/66286c80100f1c4c670c5f343e02f208.jpg?v=1786441592","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-03310378-turning-insert-dcmt21-51-m3-tp25-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
