It’s ideal for machinists, engineers, and shop-floor teams who need reliable, versatile tooling capable of handling both everyday and demanding thread jobs with a single insert.
Built on Carmex's industry-leading triangular laydown geometry, this insert delivers stable cutting action, efficient chip control, and a consistent surface finish. Its robust carbide edge and broad thread compatibility mean fewer tool changes and reliable performance across a wide spectrum of materials and thread forms.

- Triangular laydown geometry for stability: Provides smooth cutting action, improved surface finish, and effective chip control across diverse materials and threads.
- Right-hand orientation for fast setup: Specifically designed for right-hand threading operations, aligning with standard holders to help you machine accurately and efficiently with less setup time.
This insert streamlines external thread turning by offering one versatile solution that covers common thread standards, reducing downtime and inventory complexity. You gain predictable tool life, consistent thread quality, and a cleaner finish from basic production runs to high-demand applications, supporting faster setups and on-time delivery.
