How to Select the Correct Tool-Holder and USPOT Insert to Match Your Application:
The USPOT inserts are available as semi-standard solutions tailored to customer applications.
- Choose the appropriate tool-holder based on the pilot hole diameter.
For instance, if the pilot hole diameter is 8.5 mm, select the UX2080, which supports a minimum diameter (Ødmin) of 8 mm. - Specify the required parameters for the USPOT insert, including the counter-bore or spotface diameter, corner radius, chip-former, and coating.
- Fill in the relevant details for the USPOT insert description as outlined in the specifications below.
- Ensure compatibility between the USPOT insert series and the corresponding UX tool-holder. The series of the insert must match the series of the tool-holder.
Notes:
- Coating – Our top recommendation is the NCT grade, featuring the versatile TiAlN PVD coating. It offers excellent thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and is compatible with a wide range of materials, including mild steels, stainless steel, and Inconel. For additional options, refer to the list of available coatings below.

Here is an example of coding a special USPOT insert for the application shown on the right:
Ød = 8.7mm (0.343″)
ØD = 17.6mm (0.693″)
R = 0.2mm (0.032″)
Material: AISI 4340 / 34CrNiMo6 (1.6582) / SNCM439, tempered to 42 HRC
The recommended tool-holder is UX2080 / UX-d080-B-C16-H50-L110
The corresponding insert is US-d080-D176-B-R02-ML-NCT
Important Note:
Ensure that the pilot-hole length (L) is less than or equal to the RFC (Relief For Cutting) L⩽RFC ,as specified in the UBACK tool-holders table below.
