SER 1616 H16 – external thread turning in practice
The workpiece rotates while the cutting edge moves along its axis
Turning tool for external threads PER 16x16 H16 Smoxh is a right-hand tool holder for turning threads on shafts, journals, and bushings. The 16x16 mm shank is clamped in a suitable lathe tool post. With a suitable 16 ER insert, you can cut metric M and inch UN threads with a 60° profile, as well as G parallel pipe threads with a 55° profile.
The metric pitch range is 0.5–3.5 mm, depending on the selected insert. For inch G and UN threads, match the insert to the profile and threads per inch (TPI). Example: a G 1/2 thread has 14 threads per inch, so it requires a 16 ER 14 W insert. This is an indexable turning tool: when the cutting edge wears out, only the insert is replaced, while the body is retained.
The thread diameter is determined by the shaft being machined, not the tool holder. The same 16 ER 1.5 ISO insert can therefore cut, for example, M20x1.5 and M36x1.5. This is why a threading tool replaces a set of dies for fine threads and large diameters.

How does an external threading tool work?
The insert deepens the same profile with each successive pass. The feed remains synchronized with spindle rotation. For a single-start thread, tool travel per revolution equals the thread pitch.
In a typical setup, a right-hand turning tool cuts toward the lathe chuck. The R symbol itself identifies the holder design. The hand of the resulting thread also depends on the tool setup, spindle rotation and feed direction.
16 ER inserts – selecting the thread profile and pitch
One holder, different tasks with the appropriate insert
Full profile 16 ER ISO
A full-profile insert, such as 16 ER 1.5 ISO, is designed for a specific pitch. It machines the thread flanks, root and crest. A different pitch requires the appropriate insert version.
Example: metric profile, 1.5 mm pitch.
Partial profile 16 ER AG60
A partial-profile insert, such as 16 ER AG60, covers pitches of 0.5–3 mm (48–8 threads per inch). It does not finish the thread crests. The outside diameter of the part must be prepared beforehand with a suitable tool.
Selection: profile, pitch range and insert grade.
Choose a full-profile insert for a production run of the same thread. The crest is formed together with the flanks, without a separate operation, and the profile is repeatable. An AG60 insert with a 60° profile or an AG55 insert with a 55° profile covers several pitches, making it useful for short runs and individual parts. The crest then depends on the previously turned diameter, so profile control is less precise.
The final “16” indicates the insert size, not the diameter of the thread being cut. The thread profile and pitch depend on the selected 16 ER insert. 11 ER and 16 IR inserts are not direct substitutes for each other.
Threading with a turning tool on a lathe – setup and feed
Short overhang, correct cutting edge height and synchronized motion
Set the cutting tip at spindle center height. Check the alignment of the insert profile relative to the workpiece axis. Minimize shank overhang to reduce susceptibility to vibration. Remove chips from the pocket and support surfaces before mounting.
Select the cutting speed and number of passes according to the insert, material and clamping rigidity. The SER body alone does not determine cutting data for steel, stainless steel or aluminum.
The SER 16x16 H16 Smoxh external threading turning tool requires a tool post for a 16x16 mm shank that allows the cutting edge height to be set correctly. When selecting the tool, also check the clearance around the workpiece. The overall length of 100 mm describes the body, not the permissible working overhang. Check the final thread dimensions against the requirements on the part drawing.
Feed for a 1.5 mm pitch
Pitch P is measured along the axis between corresponding points on adjacent thread turns.
For a single-start thread, the tool moves axially by 1.5 mm for each spindle revolution.
Feed per revolution:
fn = P = 1.5 mm/rev.
Example: spindle speed n = 400 rpm
vf = n × P = 400 × 1.5
600 mm/min
Feed rate
400 rpm is a calculation example, not recommended cutting data. The threading cycle requires the feed to be synchronized with the spindle.
Thread turning with a turning tool – approach, cutting pass and retraction
Each pass uses the same four movements, going slightly deeper each time
The thread is formed in several passes. In each pass, the tool follows the same cycle of four movements, and the 16 ER insert cuts slightly deeper each time until the profile reaches full depth. The diagram shows one pass in a typical right-hand SER turning tool setup.
Single-pass cycle
Schematic diagram, top view. Red line – cutting movement, the insert is cutting. Dashed lines – rapid movements without cutting.
1
Approach
The tool moves from the starting point in front of the shaft end face and feeds in perpendicular to the axis to the depth of this pass. This is a rapid movement without cutting.
2
Cutting pass
The insert cuts while moving along the axis toward the chuck. For each spindle revolution, the tool advances by the thread pitch P, for example 1.5 mm.
3
Retraction
At the end of the thread, the tool rapidly retracts from the shaft. At a workpiece shoulder, it does this in the thread relief groove before reaching the shoulder face.
4
Return
The retracted tool rapidly returns to the starting point. It begins the next pass with a slightly deeper infeed.
Set the starting point in front of the shaft end face. The insert then enters the material with the feed already equal to the pitch. Metric thread depth is approximately 0.61 × P, or approximately 0.92 mm for a pitch of 1.5 mm. At a workpiece shoulder, machine a thread relief groove at least 1.05 × P wide, or approximately 1.6 mm, and at least as deep as the thread.
Tool infeed and number of passes in thread turning
The infeed direction determines which insert edge cuts
Infeed is the movement that takes the insert deeper on the next pass. Its direction determines which insert edge cuts and how the chip flows. In the diagrams, red lines show successive positions of the insert tip, and the arrow shows the infeed direction. The numbers 1–5 and progressively darker bands indicate successive passes, or the layers of material removed in each pass. The bold line shows the insert edge that is cutting.
Radial infeed
The insert feeds straight toward the axis and cuts with both edges. This is the simplest method. It works well for fine pitches, short-chipping materials and hardened materials.
Modified flank infeed
The tool moves diagonally along the flank, or side of the profile, at an angle a few degrees less than 30°. One edge does most of the cutting, while the other does not rub against the thread flank. Manufacturers recommend this method as the first choice for most threads.
Alternating flank infeed
The tool alternately moves along each flank of the profile, so both edges wear evenly. This method helps with coarse pitches and long-chipping materials. It requires a program that is not available on every lathe.
Select the number of passes according to the pitch and material. For a pitch of 1.5 mm, insert manufacturers' catalogs specify 5–11 or 6–10 passes; harder materials require more passes. The first pass is the deepest, and each subsequent pass is shallower, keeping the chip cross section similar. The final pass should not be shallower than approximately 0.05 mm, or the edge will start rubbing instead of cutting.
SER 16x16 H16 – questions about selection and applications
Key information before selecting a holder
The tool holder accepts right-hand external threading inserts from the 16 ER family. These include full-profile inserts, such as 16 ER 1.5 ISO or 16 ER 14 W, and partial-profile inserts, such as 16 ER AG60 and 16 ER AG55. Select the profile, pitch, and grade suitable for the application.
Up to 3.5 mm for metric threads, for example M30 x3.5 and M33 x3.5 with a 16 ER 3.5 ISO insert. For inch threads, the 16 ER AG60 and 16 ER AG55 inserts cover up to 8 threads per inch.
For G parallel pipe threads according to ISO 228-1, from G 1/16 to G 6. These sizes have 28, 19, 14 or 11 threads per inch. Each thread count has a corresponding full-profile insert, such as 16 ER 19 W for G 1/4 and G 3/8.
Yes, with a 16 ER/IL grooving insert installed. It fits size 16 right-hand SER external tool holders, so you do not need a separate turning tool. Match the insert width to the groove width on the part drawing and check the permissible depth in the insert data sheet.
