Kyocera TF Series Precision Threading Inserts
The Kyocera TF Series threading insert lineup is engineered using high-precision fine mold technology to deliver superior thread profile quality, exceptional tool longevity, and cost-effective productivity across external threading applications. Manufactured by Kyocera, this comprehensive threading system combines advanced micro-honing edge preparation with high-performance PVD coating and sharp carbide substrates to handle various standard screw thread pitches with maximum accuracy.
Advanced PR1115 Coating & Fine Mold Technology
The outstanding machining performance of the Kyocera TF Series is powered by cutting-edge material and surface treatment innovations:
- NEW FS (Fine Surface) TiAlN PVD Coat: Features exceptional smooth surface finish, high film hardness (30 GPa), strong coating adhesion, and superior oxidation resistance up to 800°C for high-speed threading.
- PR1115 Ground Grade: Combines micro-grain carbide substrate with consistent micro-honing edge technology for clean cutting action and precise metric thread profiles.
- GW15 Uncoated Sharp Edge Carbide: Dedicated sharp-edge grade for non-ferrous alloys and low-cutting-force precision thread cutting.
- Clear Insert Identification Markings: Laser-etched text clearly indicates thread type and pitch size for user-friendly tool setup and inventory management.
Machining Performance & Economic Value
Unlike conventional molded inserts that exhibit inconsistent edge honing, Kyocera TF Series inserts maintain uniform cutting edge geometry across all production lots. This high-precision edge quality reduces burr formation and extends edge life while offering the economic advantages of direct mold manufacturing.
