It features a TiN coating applied via PVD process, which extends edge life across a broad range of workpiece materials. The insert carries a 3ER style designation with a 9.53 mm inscribed circle (3\/8 inch) and a thickness of 3.60 mm. The 29-degree included angle is correct for Acme thread form geometry. Machining professionals and CNC lathe operators use this insert for precise, repeatable Acme thread profiles on external features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for threading operations on a wide range of metallic workpiece materials, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous alloys, high-temperature alloys, and hardened materials, reflected in its universal primary workpiece material rating covering material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. It fits standard 3ER insert pocket toolholders and is commonly used in production and job-shop CNC turning environments where Acme thread forms are required on lead screws, actuators, and power transmission components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate with PVD-applied TiN coating for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 TPI Acme 3G external thread form with 29-degree included angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3ER insert style with 9.53 mm (3\/8 inch) inscribed circle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting orientation for standard external threading passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal material compatibility across steel, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous, and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI B1.5:1988 Acme thread standard; manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 quality system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for standard 3ER insert pocket toolholders used in external Acme 3G threading applications.
