Carmex Carbide Threading Insert - Unified - TiAlN Coated - 12I32UN

The Carmex Carbide Threading Insert, Unified, TiAlN Coated, model 12I32UN, is a versatile threading solution engineered to cover a wide range of common thread profiles. Designed for machinists and job shops, it delivers dependable performance across internal and external threads with minimal tool changes.

• Unified threading coverage: A single insert family that spans the most common thread profiles for streamlined setups.
• TiAlN coating: Superior hardness and thermal stability to extend tool life in demanding cutting conditions.
• Five lengths: Available in 12 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, 32 mm, and 40 mm lengths to fit diverse tooling configurations.
• Double-sided edges: Each insert has two cutting edges for extended use (exceptions apply to BSPT, NPT, NPTF, American Buttress, and API RD).
• Internal/External capability: In many profiles, the same insert can machine both internal and external threads, reducing tooling complexity (exceptions: ISO, UN, NPSM, UNJ, Acme).
• Pitch range compatibility: Handles pitches from 0.5 mm (32 TPI) up to 6.0 mm (4 TPI), offering broad threading flexibility.

This design minimizes tool changes and stocking needs by consolidating multiple thread profiles into one robust, TiAlN-coated insert. The bi-directional edges and protective coating help maintain precision and productivity, making it suitable for precision turning, production runs, and repair work where consistent thread quality is essential.
