Manufactured to ANSI code TCMT32.52ESU and ISO code TCMT16T308N-SU, this insert carries a 3\/8 inch inscribed circle, a 1\/32 inch corner radius, and a 60-degree triangular geometry. The AC6030M grade features a CVD-applied coating optimized for demanding cutting applications. The positive rake angle and ESU chip breaker geometry promote controlled chip flow and reduced cutting forces. Installation uses a screw-holding method, making indexing straightforward at the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for turning stainless steel workpieces in production and job-shop environments. The ESU chip breaker is engineered for stainless steel and other difficult-to-machine alloys where chip control and edge stability are critical. The TCMT insert style fits a wide range of standard screw-on toolholders with C-style clearance and M-tolerance seating. Both CNC machinists and manual lathe operators working ferrous and stainless applications will find this insert applicable to finishing and semi-finishing passes where a tight corner radius and controlled chip formation are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with CVD coating for wear resistance on stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eESU chip breaker geometry for controlled chip flow in difficult-to-machine materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch inscribed circle with 60-degree triangular shape provides three usable cutting edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/32 inch corner radius suited for semi-finishing and finishing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle reduces cutting forces and tool pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-holding method ensures secure, repeatable indexing in compatible toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard TCMT-style screw-on turning toolholders with C clearance and M tolerance specifications, per ANSI and ISO 13399 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and indexing of carbide turning inserts should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate torx or hex key to torque the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specification — do not overtighten, as this can fracture the insert. Inspect the insert seat and clamping components for chips or debris before seating a new insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT32.52ESU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT16T308N-SU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: TCMT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Triangle (60 degrees)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: AC6030M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: ESU\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\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.0313 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\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1693 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\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\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\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches L x 1.5 inches W x 0.5 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO 13399\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: 196CBPU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUMITOMO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754391961906,"sku":"196CBPU","price":211.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8fcbaaf79486adb0c2d1d268ea9fc43b.jpg?v=1788944987","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sumitomo-196cbpu-carbide-turning-insert-3-8-in-ic-triangle","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
