BEYOND 22ER 6.0 TR BY18A Threading Insert

High-Performance PVD Nano-Coating | Universal Grade for Stainless & Steel

How does PVD coating improve 6mm pitch trapezoidal threading?

The BEYOND 22ER 6.0 TR BY18A is an industrial-grade external threading insert engineered for heavy-duty Trapezoidal (TR) DIN 103 profiles. The core advantage lies in its BY18A Nano-PVD coating, which offers a technical performance profile similar to the industry-leading Mitsubishi VP15TF. This physical vapor deposition process allows for a thinner, tougher, and significantly sharper cutting edge compared to CVD coatings. With a large 22mm IC and a 6.0mm pitch capability, this insert is optimized for machining tough materials like 300-series stainless steel, carbon steel, and heat-resistant alloys where edge integrity and thermal stability are critical.

BY18A PVD Technology

A multi-layered AlTiN-based PVD coating that provides high surface hardness (HV3000+) while maintaining a sharp cutting edge, effectively preventing Built-Up Edge (BUE) in gummy materials.

Heavy-Duty TR 6.0 Profile

Precision-ground full profile geometry ensures consistent 30° thread angles and peak-to-root accuracy, meeting strict DIN 103 B2B quality standards.

Excellent Thermal Shield

The PVD layer acts as a powerful thermal barrier, protecting the micro-grain carbide substrate during the high-friction environment of large-pitch threading.

Reviews from Professional Workshops

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Excellent PVD Quality" - Markus R., Germany
"The BY18A grade works almost exactly like the VP15TF we used to use. Very stable for large TR threads in stainless steel."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Perfect for Stainless" - James D., USA
"Threading 316 stainless with a 6mm pitch is a nightmare, but these inserts hold up. No chipping even after 20 pieces."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Sharp and Clean" - Luca V., Italy
"The thread profile is incredibly sharp. We are getting a mirror finish on the flanks of the TR lead screws."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Top B2B Value" - Hiroshi T., Japan
"Consistent quality across multiple boxes. We use these for our high-precision valve stems."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Very Tough" - Pavel S., Poland
"Industrial grade is real. These handled interrupted cuts on alloy steel with ease. Highly recommended."

8. FAQ - Professional Engineering Support

Q: Is the BY18A grade better for stainless than CVD grades?

A: Yes. Because PVD is thinner and keeps the cutting edge sharper, it prevents the "rubbing" and work-hardening common when using CVD on stainless steel.

Q: How should I set the infeed for a 6.0 pitch?

A: For such a large pitch, we recommend a modified flank infeed (1-3 degrees) to ensure chips only form on one side of the edge, reducing stress on the tip.

Q: Can I use this for TR 6.0 ACME threads?

A: No. While they look similar, TR uses a 30° angle and ACME uses 29°. Using the wrong insert will result in a thread that does not fit its mating part.

Industrial Tip: The PVD Edge

For the best results with **BY18A**, treat it like a premium **VP15TF**. High cutting speeds and consistent coolant flow are your friends. The sharpness of the **Nano-PVD** layer is your greatest weapon against thread chatter. **BEYOND CNC** - The Science of Cutting.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide

Are your carbide inserts interchangeable with major brands like Sandvik, Iscar, or Kennametal?

Absolutely. Our CNC carbide inserts (including CNMG, WNMG, DNMG, and APMT series) are manufactured strictly adhering to international ISO/ANSI specifications. A CNMG 120408 from OYYU BEYOND will flawlessly fit any standard turning tool holder or indexable tool from major global brands like Sandvik Coromant, Kennametal, Iscar, Walter, or SECO, providing a highly cost-effective premium alternative without sacrificing tolerance or tool life.

How do I choose the correct insert grade and chipbreaker for machining Stainless Steel (M) vs. Carbon Steel (P)?

We offer optimized CVD and PVD multi-layer coatings for different ISO material groups:

  • For Carbon/Alloy Steel (ISO P): Choose our thick multi-layer CVD coated grades (e.g., Al2O3 + TiN). They provide exceptional crater wear resistance and thermal barriers during high-speed dry or wet roughing.
  • For Stainless Steel (ISO M): Choose our nano-structured PVD coated grades with sharp, positive chipbreakers (like -TM or -MA). This combination prevents work hardening and effectively controls sticky chips.
What are the recommended cutting speed (Vc) and feed rate (f) parameters to maximize tool life?

The optimal cutting parameters vary depending on the workpiece hardness and operation type:

  • For General Steel Turnings: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) ranges from 150 to 280 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.15 to 0.45 mm/rev.
  • For Stainless Steel Finishing: Recommended cutting speed ($V_c$) is 120 to 200 m/min, with a feed rate ($f$) of 0.10 to 0.25 mm/rev.Always adjust parameters based on early wear patterns: increase $V_c$ if built-up edge occurs, or reduce $V_c$ if severe flank wear is observed.
Do you offer bulk discounts or wholesale pricing for machine shops and distributors?

Yes, we support machine shops, distributors, and global buyers with tiered wholesale pricing and competitive volume discounts. We also provide OEM custom manufacturing solutions for tool holders and carbide inserts based on your technical drawings. Contact our team to request a quick B2B quotation.
