16 IR 2 ISO internal metric threading insert turns the full internal thread profile with a pitch of 2 mm: flanks, root and crests. It can cut metric fine threads from M20 × 2 to M80 × 2 in holes from Ø16 mm. It works in size 16 right-hand SIR boring bars. It has three corners for successive use.

The crests remain as produced by boring the hole.

A full-profile threading insert has short cutting edges on both sides of the tooth. During the final passes, they trim the thread crests to the hole diameter, which is the thread minor diameter D1. The insert therefore turns both the groove and the hole diameter itself, with a crest flat equal to 1/4 of the pitch, or approx. 0.50 mm.
For an M20 × 2 thread in the 6H tolerance zone, the hole diameter is 17.835–18.210 mm and the pitch diameter is 18.701–18.913 mm. Bore the hole slightly undersize beforehand. An oversized hole will leave the crests unmachined and produce a profile that is too shallow. Check the finished thread with a thread plug gauge or screw.
This insert
16 IR 2 ISO full profile
The insert turns the flanks, root and crests of a thread with a 2 mm pitch. The crest is 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, e.g. 16 IR AG60
The insert machines the flanks and root of the groove over a pitch range of 0.5–3.0 mm. It does not touch the crests: they retain the previously turned diameter.
Choose for: short runs and various pitches.
How the 16 IR 2 ISO insert cuts threads – passes, feed and cutting data
Feed of 2 mm per revolution and 6–13 progressively shallower passes
Schematic illustration: an insert in a right-hand SIR boring bar inside the workpiece bore. The insert is highlighted in gold.
One spindle revolution – 2 mm of feed
The workpiece rotates while the boring bar with the insert moves along the hole axis by 2 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 an infeed depth of 1.15 mm
The insert reaches the total infeed depth of 1.15 mm in 6–13 passes; start with 10. The first pass removes the most material, and the final pass removes 0.05–0.08 mm. Use flank infeed at an angle of 29–30° to the radial direction: the insert then cuts mainly on one flank.
In a blind hole, make a relief groove at the end of the thread at least 2.1 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 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 M20 × 2
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 mm/rev.
Example: M20 × 2 in a hole in low-alloy steel, vc = 100 m/min
n = 1000 × vc / (π × d) = 1000 × 100 / (π × 20) ≈ 1590 rpm
vf = n × P = 1590 × 2
3180 mm/min
feed rate
d – thread diameter (20 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 M20 × 2: 2 / (π × 20) = 0.032, giving β ≈ 1.82°. 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 a pitch of 2 mm – from M20 × 2 to M200 × 2
One insert, many diameters with the same pitch
Hole diameters shown at the same scale. The tooth profile and thread depth are the same for each.
The pitch and tooth profile do not depend on diameter. The infeed depth for an internal thread with a pitch of 2 mm is always 1.15 mm, for both M20 × 2 and M80 × 2. The hole in the workpiece, rather than the insert, determines the thread diameter.
The 16 IR 2 ISO insert can cut every metric fine thread with a 2 mm pitch in the PN-ISO 261 table with a bore from Ø16 mm. The standard allows this pitch up to a diameter of 200 mm. Smaller threads with this pitch, up to M18, have a bore smaller than Ø16 mm and require a smaller insert.

16 IR 2 ISO insert dimensions
Size 16 denotes 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 = 1.3 mm specify the position of the cutting tip relative to the sides of the insert. The corner reproduces the ISO internal thread profile: a 60° angle, a root width of 1/8 of the pitch and a crest width of 1/4 of the pitch in the nominal profile.

Only for a pitch of 2 mm and internal threads
The insert profile fits only one pitch. At a different feed, the insert flanks will not align with the thread flanks, producing a distorted thread. A boring bar for size 16 inserts fits holes from Ø16 mm – this determines the smallest thread.
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 2 ISO internal metric threading insert finishes an internal thread with a 2 mm pitch, including the crests, without a separate finish-boring operation. A single insert cuts more than 30 sizes listed in the standard's table, from M20 × 2 to M80 × 2, always with the same infeed depth of 1.15 mm. It is suitable for production runs that require a repeatable profile.
16 IR 2 ISO – questions about selection and use
Key information before selecting an insert
You can cut all internal metric threads with a pitch of 2 mm and a hole diameter from Ø16 mm: metric fine threads listed in the PN-ISO 261 table from M20 × 2 to M80 × 2. The standard permits a pitch of 2 mm up to a diameter of 200 mm.
Yes. The full profile trims the thread crests to the hole diameter, e.g. to 17.835–18.210 mm for M20 × 2 in the 6H tolerance zone. Simply bore the hole slightly undersize beforehand.
The total insert infeed depth for an internal thread is approx. 0.58 × P, or approx. 1.15 mm for a pitch of 2 mm. It is the same for every diameter with this pitch.
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 6 to 13 passes; start with 10. For harder materials, add passes instead of increasing the cutting speed.
