Tool-flo 0107000AC22R Threading Insert 8-48 Tpi Carbide Altin

Product Description

The TOOL-FLO 0107000AC22R is a laydown-style threading insert designed for external and internal thread cutting on CNC lathes and turning centers. This solid carbide insert carries the AC22R grade designation and features a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) AlTiN coating, which provides elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and hard materials. It is configured for 60-degree V-thread profiles and covers a threading range of 8 to 48 threads per inch (TPI), making it suitable for a wide range of standard unified thread applications. The insert geometry is TPGC32NV with a 3/8-inch inscribed circle and a 0.0050-inch corner radius.

This insert is suited for production threading operations in job shops, OEM machining facilities, and maintenance repair environments. It is typically used in CNC turning applications where consistent thread form and surface finish are required across medium to high production volumes. The 8-48 TPI range covers coarse and fine thread series in unified inch standards, making it a versatile option for shops threading fastener-size to larger diameter workpieces in steel, stainless, and similar machinable alloys.

Compatibility

Designed for use in TPGC-style laydown threading toolholders accepting a 3/8-inch inscribed circle insert with 0.1270-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified CNC machinists or tool-and-die technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert. Ensure the insert pocket and clamping screw are clean and free of chips before installation. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specifications for the clamping screw - do not overtighten, as carbide inserts are brittle and susceptible to cracking under excessive clamping load.
