Manufactured to the VKX grade, this insert features a TiN (titanium nitride) coating that extends tool life by reducing friction and resisting wear at the cutting edge. The TNMA insert style seats on-edge in compatible toolholders, presenting the cutting geometry at the correct approach angle for single-point threading operations. It is used on CNC lathes and manual threading setups by machinists and pipe-shop technicians working in oil and gas, downhole tool manufacturing, and related industries where API thread standards are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is applied in threading operations that must conform to API Buttress specifications, commonly found on oilfield casing and tubing connections. It is suited for production environments where thread form accuracy and consistent tool life are critical. The insert is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 10 pieces, making it appropriate for shop stock in facilities with regular API Buttress threading demand. Typical workpiece materials include carbon steel and alloy steel pipe used in downhole and surface casing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAPI Buttress thread profile geometry for oilfield casing and tubing threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiN coating reduces cutting friction and extends insert service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTNMA insert style for on-edge seating in compatible threading toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVKX manufacturer grade for consistent cutting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsert size code 44 for correct toolholder and pocket fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured under ISO 9001:2008 quality management standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in TNMA-style on-edge threading toolholders that accept size code 44 inserts and are configured for API Buttress thread forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians on CNC or manual lathes. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the toolholder secured before seating or replacing the insert. Use the correct torx or hex key to the toolholder manufacturer's specified clamping procedure to ensure the insert is fully seated on-edge without rocking. Verify thread form and pitch against API Buttress gauging requirements before committing to a production run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: TNMA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 44\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: API Buttress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: VKX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN (Titanium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\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: VARGUS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20645\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VARGUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67911154434354,"sku":"20645","price":412.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fe0022c12f9a89859fb7ec301451f277.jpg?v=1791204964","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vargus-20645-on-edge-threading-insert-api-buttress-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
