Professional turning insert for precise contours

The indexable insert VBMT...-HF RT250X combines a slim 35° rhombic shape with an optimized geometry for medium machining and finishing operations. It provides a solid foundation for manufacturing complex workpiece contours and profile turning in steel and stainless steel. The PVD multilayer coating of the P10-P30 and M10-M30 carbide grade gives the tool high wear resistance, supporting efficient workflows in continuous as well as light interrupted cuts. The specific HF chipbreaker opens up flexible application possibilities through controlled chip formation, which is particularly beneficial for fine machining tasks.

Applications

This insert is well suited for finishing and medium turning operations on components made of steel and stainless steel. Thanks to its 35° shape, this product is a well-thought-out solution for profile turning, copy turning, and the machining of hard-to-reach workpiece contours. It is primarily used in professional CNC and conventional lathes where continuous or light interrupted cutting conditions prevail.

Special features

The combination of the PVD multilayer coating and the refined HF chipbreaker geometry ensures reliable chip evacuation and supports a good surface quality on the workpiece. The RT250X grade is matched to the universal requirements of P and M materials (P10-P30, M10-M30), offering professional users dependable performance in daily manufacturing routines.
