Finished with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating applied via PVD process, this insert delivers improved wear resistance and surface hardness compared to uncoated tooling. Insert style is 3EI with size code 3 and manufacturer grade VBX. It is suited for both internal and external thread milling operations and is installed into compatible thread mill toolholders used on CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in precision thread milling applications where NPT pipe thread forms are required. The 14 TPI specification matches standard NPT pipe thread geometry per USAS B2.1:1968. Typical applications include machining pipe thread connections in ferrous and stainless workpieces. The insert is appropriate for use in job shop, production machining, and maintenance-repair environments where consistent thread form accuracy is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbide substrate with TiCN coating for extended tool life in demanding materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVD coating process preserves sharp cutting edge geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNPT thread form at 14 TPI per USAS B2.1:1968 standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCapable of both internal and external thread milling in a single insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInsert style 3EI, grade VBX, size code 3 for straightforward replacement identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement insert for compatible VARGUS TM2VTX series thread mill toolholders accepting 3EI style inserts.
