Carbide threading insert questions
I sent this once before, but it doesn't seem to have made it to the
newsgroup. --------------------- There are lots of threading inserts, and the several catalog pages I've looked at to try to understand them don't do a very good job. The turning inserts make a lot more sense than the threading ones. So first, can anyone point me to a reasonable explanation of how the inserts are numbered (threading, not turning)? Are threading insert brands compatible with each other? For instance, can I expect to use company A's insert in company B's holder? And in the too convenient to be true department, can I use a triangular threading insert to cut internal threads with my insert boring bars? I could make threading insert holders, but don't know the angles and such, how much it varies from insert type to insert type, etc. Thanks, Steve |
