Professional production of imperial internal threads
The 16IR part profile threading insert with a 55-degree flank angle is geared towards the demanding production of internal threads in imperial dimensions. Unlike full profile inserts, the partial profile offers the advantage of covering multiple thread pitches with just one cutting edge. Combined with the PVD-coated solid carbide grade RT315, this turning tool is an excellent choice for flexible use on CNC lathes. It supports efficient workflows by reducing setup times for changing pitches while delivering consistently reliable results across a broad spectrum of workpiece materials.

Applications
This threading insert is primarily used in the machining industry, mechanical engineering, as well as in maintenance and repair work. Its partial profile makes it possible to machine various imperial thread pitches with the same tool, turning it into an ideal solution for individual and small batch production runs.
Special features
Thanks to the sophisticated PVD coating of the universal RT315 grade, this cutting insert is highly wear-resistant. It ensures smooth cutting operations across a wide variety of materials – from common steels and stainless variants to non-ferrous metals and special alloys. This provides operators with high flexibility when frequently handling changing workpiece specifications.
