TQ chipbreaker for stable thread turning

TQ is a series of turning inserts with a newly developed asymmetric chipbreaker design, which further raises the bar. The chipbreaker geometry ensures reliable chip flow, both in case of radial infeed and flank infeed – when performing internal as well as external threading.

Benefits

• Stable chip control, both in case of radial infeed and modified flank infeed
• Long and predictable tool life with new qualities
• Low cutting forces due to large rake angle
• Requires no base plate

Features

• Asymmetric design of chipbreaker controls direction of chip flow
• Due to good chipbreaker geometry, the chip is broken easily
• Full-profile insert forming a complete thread
• Partial-profile insert for various thread angles
• Low-force cutting properties
• PR1515: 1st recommendation (for stainless)
• PR1535: stability-oriented (for stainless)
• PR1215: for steel

Applications

• Internal and external threading
• M: Metric
• G(PF): Parallel pipe
• R, Rc(PT), (BSPT)
• W: Whitworth
• UN thread
• UNF thread
