Manufactured to the 3ER insert style specification, it carries a PVD-applied TiAlN coating that improves wear resistance and heat tolerance across a broad range of workpiece materials. The insert produces a partial profile 60-degree thread form and covers a threading range of 48 to 16 TPI (0.50 to 1.50 mm pitch), making it a versatile single insert for multiple thread sizes within that range. Right-hand cutting geometry, a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle, and a thickness of 3.60 mm match standard 3ER toolholder pockets without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for external threading on turning centers in both production and job-shop environments. The universal primary workpiece material classification means it is compatible with carbon steels, stainless steels, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, high-temperature alloys, and titanium alloys  -  covering material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. Machinists and CNC operators working with mixed-material jobs benefit from keeping this insert in rotation as a general-purpose external threading solution. It ships individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with PVD TiAlN coating for extended tool life and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePartial profile 60-degree thread form covers 48-16 TPI (0.50-1.50 mm pitch) in a single insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand external cutting geometry; fits standard 3ER toolholder pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch (9.53 mm) inscribed circle with 3.60 mm thickness for precise pocket seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUniversal material rating: compatible with steels, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous, and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured under ISO 9001:2008 quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for 3ER-style toolholders accepting a 3\/8-inch inscribed circle laydown threading insert.

Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing threading inserts. Use the correct torque wrench and insert screw per the toolholder manufacturer's specification  -  do not overtighten, as solid carbide inserts are brittle and will crack under excess clamping force. Inspect the toolholder pocket for chips or debris before seating the new insert to ensure proper contact and repeatability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3ER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\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: VTX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48-16 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.50-1.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Partial Profile 60 Degree\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\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (9.53 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.60 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0500 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Universal (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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO 9001:2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23291804\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: 50973\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VARGUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907199140146,"sku":"50973","price":314.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f713f09d129293ba4eb8c205c710a302_8538cb38-2d05-40d4-b3a6-70ad01328bb3.jpg?v=1791175556","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vargus-50973-threading-insert-solid-carbide-tialn-48-16-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
