Designed with a 35° diamond shape, VBMT inserts are widely used in turning operations requiring excellent surface finish, profiling, and semi-finishing applications.
Whether you’re working with steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, or high-temp alloys, VBMT inserts deliver precision, durability, and consistent performance.
What Does VBMT Mean?
The ISO code VBMT gives a detailed specification:
-
V → Insert Shape: 35° Diamond (sharp for fine finishing & profiling)
-
B → Relief Angle: 5° clearance (minimizes cutting forces, improves finish)
-
M → Tolerance: Medium (ISO standard for balanced accuracy and economy)
-
T → Fixing Method: Single-sided insert with central hole for clamping
This design makes VBMT inserts ideal for applications where precision and surface quality are critical.
