The VARGUS 52193 is a laydown-style threading insert designed for internal partial-profile 60-degree thread forms. Manufactured from solid carbide with a PVD-applied TiN (titanium nitride) coating, this insert delivers consistent thread geometry across a broad TPI range of 48 to 16 TPI, covering metric pitches from 0.50 mm to 1.50 mm. The right-hand cut orientation and 3/8-inch (9.53 mm) inscribed circle fit standard boring bar and threading toolholders. Insert thickness is 3.60 mm. This insert is suited for machinists and toolroom technicians running internal threading operations on CNC lathes and turning centers.
The 52193 is applied in internal threading operations where a partial-profile 60-degree insert is required across mixed material types. The VKX grade with TiN coating is rated for universal primary workpiece material compatibility, including steel, stainless, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, high-temperature alloys, and other common shop materials designated under ISO material groups H, K, M, N, P, and S. Typical use cases include threading bored holes on production runs and job-shop turning operations where a single insert must cover a wide pitch range.
Designed as an OEM-style laydown threading insert for internal 60-degree partial-profile threading applications using standard 3IR-series toolholders and boring bars accepting a 3/8-inch inscribed circle insert.
This insert is installed and replaced by a machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the insert. Ensure the insert pocket and clamping screw are clean and free of chips before seating to maintain proper contact and prevent insert rocking. Follow toolholder manufacturer torque guidance for the clamping screw to avoid over-tightening solid carbide inserts.
