Description
Product Overview
The THINBIT LGPT115D5R parting insert is engineered from premium uncoated DURA‑MAX 5000 carbide, delivering a balance of hardness and toughness that is essential for high‑speed machining of non‑ferrous alloys, aluminium and plastic. Its compact geometry, measured at 1.06 x 0.17 x 0.24 inches, allows it to fit into a wide range of Large series toolholders, providing flexibility for both right‑hand (RH) straight and left‑hand (LH) 90‑degree configurations. The insert’s narrow width minimizes material loss and reduces part deflection, which is especially valuable when working with thin‑wall tubing, small‑diameter components, or precious metals where precision is paramount. Designed for uninterrupted cuts, the LGPT115D5R eliminates the need for multiple passes, thereby increasing productivity and reducing tool wear. The product dimensions and model designation (LGPT) are clearly indicated on the packaging, ensuring easy identification and inventory management for manufacturers and machining shops alike.

Usage
This parting insert excels in a variety of industrial environments, from aerospace component fabrication to automotive prototype machining and electronics housing production. It is particularly well‑suited for applications that require clean, flush cuts against collet faces or spindle shoulders, such as separating solid stock up to 1.000″ in diameter or tubing with wall thicknesses up to .500″. The insert’s ability to handle both aluminium and plastic without interrupted cuts makes it a versatile choice for mixed‑material production lines where quick changeovers are essential. Operators appreciate the straightforward setup: the insert is placed into the designated slot of a Large series toolholder, secured with the appropriate clamping force, and the machine is programmed for a single‑pass parting operation. This simplicity reduces setup time, lowers the risk of human error, and contributes to consistent part quality across large production runs.
