The letters on carbide inserts are part of a standardized code (like ISO or ANSI) that describes the insert’s shape, clearance angle, tolerance, type, size, thickness, and cutting edge features. For example, "C" might indicate a diamond shape, while "N" denotes a 0-degree clearance angle. Each letter in the code provides specific information about the insert’s geometry and application.
