MMT16ER190BSPT-S VP15TF
Mitsubishi Materials | MMT Series External BSPT (Whitworth) | 19 TPI
The Mitsubishi MMT16ER190BSPT-S VP15TF is a precision-engineered external threading insert designed for 19 TPI British Standard Pipe Taper (BSPT) profiles. This 55° Whitworth-based tapered thread is commonly utilized in 1/4" and 3/8" pipe fittings requiring a pressure-tight seal. Featuring the advanced -S type 3D molded chipbreaker, this insert excels in CNC threading by maintaining strict chip control and preventing surface marring. Utilizing the VP15TF Miracle PVD coating, it is the premier choice for threading stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloyed materials with high reliability.

VP15TF Miracle Grade
The VP15TF grade is Mitsubishi's premium universal PVD solution. It combines a high-toughness substrate with a Miracle (Al-Ti-N) coating. This provides the indexable threading insert with extreme heat resistance and anti-welding properties, which is essential for preventing built-up edge (BUE) when internal/external threading gummy materials like stainless steel.
-S Type (3D) Chipbreaker
The -S molded chipbreaker utilizes a 3D rake face to actively curl chips. For 19 TPI profiles, which are relatively fine, this chip control technology ensures that small chips do not get recut, thereby preserving the surface finish and maintaining the integrity of the tapered thread flank for leak-proof connections.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
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.
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.
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.
