Carmex Carbide Threading Insert - Unified - TiAlN Coated - 12I18UN

Carmex Unified TiAlN-coated carbide threading insert is a versatile solution for machinists and job shops needing reliable threading across common profiles. Designed to cover multiple thread forms with a single insert, it simplifies tooling and speeds up setup without compromising accuracy.

• Unified threading coverage: Designed to handle the majority of standard thread profiles with a single insert, reducing tool changes and inventory.
• Five length options: Available in five lengths from 12 mm up to 40 mm to suit different depths and engagement requirements.
• Pitch range: Depending on length, accommodates pitches from 0.5 mm (32 TPI) to 6.0 mm (4 TPI) for broad versatility.
• Double-sided cutting edges: Two cutting edges extend tool life (except for BSPT/NPT/NPTF/American Buttress/API RD profiles).
• Internal and external threading: For many profiles, the same insert can machine both internal and external threads, with exceptions for ISO/UN/NPSM/UNJ/Acme forms.
• TiAlN coating on carbide: TiAlN provides enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and heat tolerance for longer tool life and steadier thread quality.
• Unified 12I18UN compatibility: Optimized for Unified thread standards, including 12I18UN, delivering consistent results across profiles.

This threading insert is ideal for seasoned machinists and precision workshops tackling a range of UN and Unified thread tasks. Its combination of multiple lengths, broad pitch support, dual cutting edges, and durable TiAlN coating helps you achieve clean, accurate threads with fewer tool changes and less downtime. Use it to streamline production on turning centers and milling applications where both internal and external threads are required, while maintaining consistent tolerance and finish across jobs.
