The four most common shapes that coated carbide tool inserts are available in are:
1. Square: Square-shaped inserts have four equal sides and are used for general-purpose machining, such as facing, turning, and shoulder milling.
2. Triangle: Triangle-shaped inserts have three equal sides and are commonly used for small turning or boring operations, as well as chamfering.
3. Round: Round-shaped inserts have a circular cutting edge and are typically used for finishing operations, such as contouring, profiling, and face milling.
4. Diamond: Diamond-shaped inserts have two acute angles and two obtuse angles, forming a rhombus shape. They are versatile and can be used for various turning, facing, and profiling applications.
