Vargus 50045 Carbide Thread Mill Insert 60 Degree

Product Description

The VARGUS 50045 is a carbide thread mill insert designed for internal thread milling operations. Featuring a partial profile 60-degree thread form and a TiCN coating applied via PVD process, this insert is built for cutting internal threads in steel workpieces with consistent accuracy. The insert style is 3UI with an inscribed circle of 9.53 mm, supporting a pitch range of 4.00 to 6.00 mm (6 to 4 TPI). The micrograin carbide substrate and VBX manufacturer grade deliver edge retention under demanding thread milling conditions. Licensed machinists and tooling specialists install these inserts as replacements in compatible thread mill bodies during routine tooling maintenance.

The VARGUS 50045 is suited for internal thread milling on steel components in production machining and job shop environments. Its partial profile 60-degree geometry covers a pitch range of 4.00 to 6.00 mm, making it applicable across a range of thread sizes without requiring a dedicated single-pitch insert for each diameter. The TiCN PVD coating helps reduce built-up edge and extends tool life when working with steel classified under primary workpiece material code P. This insert is sold individually (package quantity of 1) with a minimum order quantity of 10.
