Manufactured to the DA2200 grade, this uncoated insert features a 35-degree diamond shape (Insert Shape Code V) with a positive rake geometry and a clearance code of C. The 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and 1\/64-inch corner radius (0.0156 inches) make it well suited for finish and semi-finish turning operations where tight tolerances and sharp cutting edges are critical. The screw-holding method provides secure seating in compatible toolholders. Machining professionals working with aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous workpiece materials rely on PCD inserts like this one for extended tool life and consistent surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is intended for turning applications on non-ferrous metals in both production and job-shop environments. The NF-VCMX insert style and positive rake geometry reduce cutting forces, making it appropriate for light to medium material removal on materials prone to built-up edge with conventional carbide. The insert conforms to ANSI code NFVCMX331 and ISO code NF-VCMT160404, meeting ANSI and ISO 13399 standards, which simplifies tooling documentation and integration into CAM systems. It is typically installed and managed by CNC machinists, tool-and-die professionals, and precision turning specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolycrystalline Diamond (PCD) insert material for superior wear resistance on non-ferrous workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDA2200 manufacturer grade with uncoated finish optimized for non-ferrous metal cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35-degree diamond insert shape with positive rake for reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/64-inch corner radius (0.0156 inches) for precise edge geometry and finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-holding method ensures rigid, repeatable insert positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with ANSI and ISO 13399 standards for cross-system tooling compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fit for toolholders accepting NF-VCMX style inserts with a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle and screw-clamp holding method.

Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw to avoid cracking the PCD substrate — consult the toolholder manufacturer's seating specifications. PCD inserts are not suitable for ferrous materials or interrupted cuts; verify workpiece material before use to prevent premature insert failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: DA2200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond (35 degrees)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: NF-VCMX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inches (0.0156 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2559 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1730 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\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: X\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: Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: NFVCMX331\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: NF-VCMT160404\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO 13399\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SUMITOMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16CDBDX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727916859698,"sku":"16CDBDX","price":96.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/68e26d64f43f283774f20483fa4c3d97.jpg?v=1788684488","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-16cdbdx-pcd-turning-insert-3-8-inch-ic","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
