It carries the VKX grade designation and is manufactured from solid carbide with a PVD-applied TiN coating for extended tool life and heat resistance. The insert produces threads at 18 teeth per inch and features a 60-degree included angle conforming to the UN thread form standard. With a 6.35 mm inscribed circle and a thickness of 3.17 mm, this insert fits the 2IR tool holder style. It is used by machinists and toolroom technicians requiring precise, repeatable internal thread profiles on a wide range of workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for internal threading operations on materials classified under the H, K, M, N, P, and S workpiece material codes, covering a broad spectrum from steels and stainless alloys to non-ferrous metals and heat-resistant materials. The 2IR insert style is a standard laydown geometry, making it compatible with widely available 2IR-style boring bar and threading toolholders. Typical applications include threading bores in hydraulic fittings, pipe couplings, and precision machined components where ANSI B1.1 UN thread form compliance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction with PVD TiN coating for wear resistance and longer tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18 TPI cutting edge ground to the 60-degree UN thread form angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand internal threading geometry in the standard 2IR insert style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.35 mm inscribed circle fits 2IR-compatible boring bar toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal primary workpiece material rating covers H, K, M, N, P, and S material groups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured to ANSI B1.1:74 thread standard and produced under ISO 9001:2008 quality certification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement threading insert for use in 2IR-style internal threading toolholders.

Seat the insert fully against the pocket locating surfaces before tightening the clamping screw to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque. Inspect the insert seat for chips or debris before mounting to ensure proper seating and thread accuracy. Follow all applicable shop safety procedures and machine tool manufacturer guidelines when changing cutting inserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2IR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: VKX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.35 mm (0.25 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.17 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H; K; M; N; P; S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Teeth Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B1.1:74; ISO 9001:2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23291804\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 50442\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VARGUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67912189378866,"sku":"50442","price":317.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ee5ec204b830350e40253add319f8edc_6ecd0d91-89c1-4634-b01c-a2488e248afe.jpg?v=1791229327","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vargus-50442-2ir18un-vkx-threading-insert-18-tpi-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
