16 IR 14 W BMA internal inch threading insert cuts the full internal thread profile at 14 threads per inch: flanks, rounded root and thread crests. It can cut G 1/2 to G 7/8 pipe threads in holes from Ø16 mm. It works in size 16 right-hand SIR boring bars. It has three corners for successive use.
Full 55° profile – rounded thread root and crests
The insert finishes the thread crests in the same cycle
16 IR 14 W – full profile
Partial profile, e.g. 16 IR AG55
The Whitworth profile has a 55° angle and rounded thread roots and crests. The radius is 0.137 of the pitch, or approximately 0.25 mm at 14 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 1/2 thread, the bore diameter is 18.631–19.172 mm and the pitch diameter is 19.793–19.935 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.
Full profile 16 IR 14 W
The insert cuts the flanks and the rounded root and crests of a thread with 14 threads per inch. The radii are formed in the same cycle as the flanks, ensuring a repeatable profile in production runs.
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.
Threading with the 16 IR 14 W insert – passes, feed, and cutting data
Feed of 1.814 mm per revolution (14 threads per inch) and 9–12 progressively shallower passes
One spindle revolution – 1.814 mm of feed
The workpiece rotates while the boring bar with the insert moves along the hole axis by 1.814 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 1.16 mm
The insert reaches a depth of 1.16 mm in 9–12 passes; 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 profile 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 mm wide and no shallower than the infeed depth.
Cutting speed for BMA grade
BMA is a submicron carbide grade with a PVD TiAlN coating for steels, stainless steels and cast iron. The speeds in the table apply to thread turning.
| Workpiece material | Cutting speed vc [m/min] |
|---|---|
| P Unalloyed steel, cast steel, free-cutting steel | 120–180 |
| P Low-alloy steel and cast steel (up to 5% alloying elements) | 80–130 |
| P High-alloy and tool steel | 60–80 |
| M Stainless steel and stainless cast steel | 90–130 |
| K Gray cast iron | 120–130 |
| K Ductile and malleable cast iron | 100–130 |
Spindle speed and feed for G 1/2
For each spindle revolution, the insert advances by one pitch: fn = P = 1.814 mm/rev.
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: 1.814 / (π × 20.955) = 0.028, giving β ≈ 1.58°. 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 14 threads per inch – G 1/2 to G 7/8
One insert, all G pipe threads with this threads-per-inch value
The number of threads per inch and the tooth profile are independent of diameter. The thread depth at 14 threads per inch is always 1.16 mm, for both G 1/2 and G 7/8. The bore in the workpiece determines the thread diameter, not the insert.
The 16 IR 14 W insert can cut any G pipe thread with 14 threads per inch to ISO 228-1: G 1/2, G 5/8, G 3/4, and G 7/8. Whitworth BSW and BSF threads with the same number of threads per inch have the same 55° profile.

16 IR 14 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 = 1.0 mm and Y = 1.2 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.

Whitworth profile
Carbide grade
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 14 W BMA internal inch threading insert finishes an internal thread with 14 threads per inch, including the rounded crests. One insert can cut G pipe threads from G 1/2 to G 7/8, always at the same depth of 1.16 mm. It is suitable for production runs of fittings and valves with G threads.
16 IR 14 W – selection and application questions
Key information before selecting an insert
You can cut internal G pipe threads with 14 threads per inch: G 1/2 to G 7/8.
Yes. The full profile forms the thread crests at the bore diameter, for example to 18.631–19.172 mm for G 1/2. Simply bore the hole slightly undersize beforehand.
The Whitworth profile depth is 0.6403 times the pitch, or 1.16 mm at 14 threads per inch (1.814 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 9 to 12 passes; start with 10. For harder materials, add passes instead of increasing the cutting speed.
