Internal inch threading insert 16 IR 11 W turns the full internal thread profile at 11 threads per inch: flanks, rounded roots, and crests. It can cut G pipe threads from G 1 to G 6, as well as Whitworth BSF 7/8" threads in bores from Ø16 mm. It works in size 16 right-hand SIR boring bars. It has three corners for use in succession.

The Whitworth profile has a 55° angle and rounded thread roots and crests. The radius is 0.137 of the pitch, or approximately 0.32 mm at 11 threads per inch. The full-profile insert turns the flanks and both radii in the same cycle, producing the complete thread profile without separate bore machining.

For a G 1 thread, the bore diameter is 30.291–30.931 mm and the pitch diameter is 31.770–31.950 mm (ISO 228-1). Bore the hole slightly undersize beforehand. An oversized bore will leave the crests unmachined and the profile too shallow. Check the finished thread with a thread plug gauge or a screw.

This insert
Full-profile insert in the thread groove, with machined flanks, root and crests

Full profile 16 IR 11 W

The insert cuts the flanks and the rounded root and crests of a thread with 11 threads per inch. The radii are formed in the same cycle as the flanks, ensuring a repeatable profile in production runs.

Choose for: production runs of threads with a single pitch.
Comparison
Partial-profile insert in the thread groove, with machined flanks and root and unmachined crests

Partial profile, e.g. 16 IR AG55

The insert machines the flanks and root of the groove over a range of 48 to 8 threads per inch. It does not touch the crests: they retain the previously turned diameter.

Choose for: short runs and various pitches.

Threading with the 16 IR 11 W insert – passes, feed, and cutting data

Feed of 2.309 mm per revolution (11 threads per inch) and 7–14 progressively shallower passes

One spindle revolution – 2.309 mm of feed

The workpiece rotates while the boring bar with the insert moves along the hole axis by 2.309 mm per spindle revolution. In a typical setup, the right-hand insert feeds toward the chuck and turns a right-hand thread. During the final passes, its side cutting edges trim the crests to the hole diameter.

Successive passes to a depth of 1.48 mm

The insert reaches a depth of 1.48 mm in 7–14 passes (value interpolated from the manufacturer's table); use 10 as a starting point. The first pass removes the most material; the final pass removes 0.05–0.08 mm. Use flank infeed at an angle slightly less than 27.5°, which is half the thread angle: the insert then cuts mainly on one flank.

In a blind hole, make a relief groove at the end of the thread at least 2.5 mm wide and no shallower than the infeed depth.

Cutting speed for MTA grade

MTA grade is a submicron carbide with a PVD TiAlN coating for steel, stainless steel and cast iron. The speeds in the table apply to thread turning.

Workpiece materialCutting speed vc [m/min]
P Unalloyed steel, cast steel, free-cutting steel120–180
P Low-alloy steel and cast steel (up to 5% alloying elements)80–130
P High-alloy and tool steel60–80
M Stainless steel and stainless cast steel90–130
K Gray cast iron120–130
K Ductile and malleable cast iron100–130

Spindle speed and feed for G 1

Thread pitch of 2.309 mm marked between the centers of adjacent profile crests
Pitch P is measured along the axis between corresponding points on adjacent thread turns.

For each spindle revolution, the insert advances by one pitch: fn = P = 2.309 mm/rev.

Example: G 1 in a bore in low-alloy steel, vc = 100 m/min
n = 1000 × vc / (π × d) = 1000 × 100 / (π × 33.249) ≈ 960 rpm
vf = n × P = 960 × 2.309
2217 mm/min
feed rate
d – thread diameter (33.249 mm), n – spindle speed, vc – cutting speed from the middle of the range in the table, vf – feed rate.

Calculate the helix angle β using tan β = P / (π × d), where P is the pitch and d is the thread diameter. For G 1: 2.309 / (π × 33.249) = 0.022, giving β ≈ 1.27°. Standard threading holder shims tilt the insert by 1–1.5°, so they do not need to be replaced for this thread.

Internal threads with 11 threads per inch – G 1 to G 6

One insert, all G pipe threads with this threads-per-inch value

Bores from G 1 to G 2 with the same tooth profile at 11 threads per inch
Hole diameters shown at the same scale. The tooth profile and thread depth are the same for each.

The number of threads per inch and the tooth profile are independent of diameter. The thread depth at 11 threads per inch is always 1.48 mm, for both G 1 and G 6. The bore in the workpiece determines the thread diameter, not the insert.

The 16 IR 11 W insert can cut any G pipe thread with 11 threads per inch to ISO 228-1, covering sizes from G 1 to G 6. Whitworth BSW and BSF threads with the same number of threads per inch have the same 55° profile.

16 IR 11 W insert dimensions

Size 16 indicates an edge length of 16 mm and an inscribed circle IC of 9.525 mm, or 3/8 inch; it is not the thread diameter. Dimensions X = 1.1 mm and Y = 1.5 mm specify the cutting tip position relative to the insert sides. The corner reproduces the Whitworth profile: a 55° angle and rounding radii of 0.137 times the pitch.

For 11 threads per inch and internal threads only

The insert profile matches only one pitch (number of threads per inch). At a different feed, the insert flanks will not align with the thread flanks, resulting in a distorted thread. A boring bar for size 16 inserts fits bores from Ø16 mm – this determines the minimum thread size.

Mount the threading insert in right-hand SIR boring bars for size 16 inserts, e.g. SIR 0013 M16, SIR 0016 P16 or SIR 0020 P16. A right-hand internal insert works only in a right-hand boring bar.

The 16 IR 11 W internal inch threading insert finishes an internal thread with 11 threads per inch, including the rounded crests. One insert can cut G pipe threads from G 1 to G 6, always at the same depth of 1.48 mm. It is suitable for production runs of fittings and valves with G threads.

16 IR 11 W – selection and application questions

Key information before selecting an insert

You can cut internal G pipe threads with 11 threads per inch: G 1 to G 6, as well as Whitworth threads with the same number of threads per inch.

Yes. The full profile forms the thread crests at the bore diameter, for example to 30.291–30.931 mm for G 1. Simply bore the hole slightly undersize beforehand.

The Whitworth profile depth is 0.6403 times the pitch, or 1.48 mm at 11 threads per inch (2.309 mm pitch). It is the same for every G thread with this threads-per-inch value.

Right-hand SIR boring bars for size 16 inserts, e.g. SIR 0013 M16 (holes from Ø16 mm), SIR 0016 P16 (from Ø19 mm), SIR 0020 P16 (from Ø24 mm) or SIR 0025 R16 (from Ø29 mm).

Usually 7 to 14 passes; use 10 as a starting point. The range is interpolated from the manufacturer's table for adjacent pitches.
