It carries a BN350 manufacturer grade and is supplied in an uncoated finish. The insert features a 55-degree diamond shape (Shape Code D) with a 0.5 inch inscribed circle and a 1\/32 inch (0.0313 inch) corner radius. Insert thickness is 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inch). With two cutting edges and a clamp-and-pin holding method, this insert is designed for precision hard turning operations performed by machining professionals in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 16GCAUW is intended for turning hardened steel workpieces (Primary Workpiece Material Code H), where PCBN tooling outperforms carbide in hardness, wear resistance, and thermal stability at elevated cutting speeds. The 2NU-DNGA insert style, combined with a 0-degree relief angle (Clearance Code N) and G tolerance, makes this insert well suited for finish and semi-finish turning of hardened ferrous components. It is applicable to CNC lathes and turning centers used in automotive, bearing, die, and mold component production. The chip breaker designation is A and the insert carries C2 material grade classification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) insert material for hard-turning applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBN350 grade, uncoated finish for direct engagement on hardened steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55-degree diamond insert shape with 0.5 inch inscribed circle for precise cutting geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/32 inch corner radius for controlled surface finish on hardened ferrous parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo cutting edges with clamp-and-pin holding method for secure, repeatable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI and ISO 13399 standards for broad toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in toolholders that accept DNGA-style inserts with a 0.5 inch inscribed circle and clamp-and-pin retention.
