This triangular insert carries SECO grade TP25 with a multilayer CVD coating of TiCN and Al2O3 for extended tool life in steel and stainless steel operations. The insert features a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle, a 0.0157 inch corner radius, and a positive rake geometry with a chamfered and honed cutting edge. It is held by screw-clamping and suits turning centers used by machinists and toolroom professionals working in production or job shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is rated primarily for steel (ISO material code P) and is also suitable for stainless steel and cast iron (ISO codes M and K). It supports multiple operations including turning, facing, boring, and back turning, making it a versatile choice for shops running varied workpiece materials. The M3 chip breaker geometry is engineered for medium cutting conditions. Material grades P20, P30, and P35 indicate the recommended application range within steel cutting. The neutral hand orientation allows use on both left-hand and right-hand toolholders configured for TCMT-style inserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with multilayer CVD coating: TiCN plus Al2O3 for wear resistance in steel cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTriangular insert shape with 60-degree included angle and 3 usable cutting edges per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM3 chip breaker for medium-depth turning, facing, boring, and back turning operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle (18 degrees) with chamfered and honed cutting edge style for clean chip formation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-clamping insert holding method compatible with standard TCMT toolholder pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComplies with ANSI and ISO standards; ISO code TCMT16T304-M3, industry standard number TCMT32.51-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement insert for TCMT-series screw-clamp toolholders accepting a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle triangular insert with 7-degree relief angle and a 0.1772 inch hole diameter.

Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the manufacturer-specified torque wrench and clamping screw supplied with the toolholder system to secure the insert; do not over-tighten by hand. Inspect the insert pocket seat and clamping screw for wear or damage before seating a new insert to ensure proper seating and cutting-edge alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\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 Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Triangle (60-degree included angle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch (0.1563 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: 0.1772 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6102 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 Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 degrees (Positive)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: M3\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\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\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 Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel (M), Cast Iron (K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: P20, P30, P35\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT16T304-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT32.51-M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242105\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\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: 03310400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559735623986,"sku":"03310400","price":32.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a68418222938ad948f43408e7956b39c.jpg?v=1786439551","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-03310400-turning-insert-tcmt32-51-m3-tp25-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
