Positive Carbide Turning Inserts
These inserts are clamped in a toolholder by only a single screw and have a relief angle on the side (allowing clearance if machining small bores). They can be rotated to use new edges but are restricted to one usable face and cannot be flipped over to use other side (like a negative insert).
