Applications
The 16IR indexable insert is designed for internal turning of Whitworth pipe threads in stainless steel. Thanks to the RT300 machining grade, which covers the ISO ranges P15 to P25 and M10 to M25, it can also be used for universal thread production in conventional steels. The variants for 11, 14, and 19 threads per inch allow for flexible adaptation to different thread dimensions.
Special features
A key feature of this version is the full profile geometry, which forms the thread along with the outer diameter completely, thus ensuring burr-free and gauge-accurate results. The precisely ground 55° flank angle complies with the Whitworth standard and supports precise connections. In addition, the durable PVD coating creates good conditions for a continuous chip flow and protects the cutting edge from premature wear.
