General Information

Overview
ISO 242:2014 is an international standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that specifies the dimensions of carbide tips designed for brazing onto the shanks of turning tools. This standard ensures uniformity and interchangeability of carbide tips used in metal cutting processes, particularly for turning operations. The 2014 edition is the second revision, updating the original 1975 standard to reflect modern tooling requirements.
Carbide tips are critical in machining, offering enhanced durability and cutting performance. ISO 242:2014 contributes to tool reliability by standardizing the size and shape of these tips, which are brazed-a joining process using a filler metal-onto tool shanks.
Key Topics
Scope and Application
ISO 242:2014 applies specifically to carbide tips intended to be brazed onto turning tool shanks. It excludes throwaway indexable inserts, which fall under ISO 883.Interchangeability
The standard defines unified dimensions to guarantee that carbide tips from different manufacturers can interchangeably fit on standard tool shanks without compromising fit or function.Types and Dimensions
The document details multiple tip types (A, B, C, D, E), their nominal lengths, thicknesses, widths, and radii. For example, tips with thickness below 4 mm do not have a chamfer or clearance angle, and cutting edges may be slightly rounded. Table 1 in the standard provides minimum dimensions in millimeters for various tip types and sizes.Dimensional Relationships
An informative annex in ISO 242:2014 correlates its dimensional designations with the cutting tool data representation format in the ISO 13399 series, facilitating data exchange and integration with modern tooling databases.Technical Committee and Revision
Developed by ISO/TC 29, Subcommittee SC 9 specializing in small tools and hard cutting materials, this edition updates the original standard to align with current industrial practices.
Applications
Turning Tool Manufacturing
Manufacturers use ISO 242:2014 as a guideline to produce carbide tips compatible with standardized turning tool shanks, enhancing product consistency and supply chain efficiency.Tool Assembly and Repair
Toolmakers employ this standard to select and braze standardized carbide tips, ensuring accurate fit and optimal cutting performance during tool restoration and customization.Metalworking and Machining Industries
Industries relying on turning operations-such as automotive, aerospace, and general engineering-benefit from tools conforming to ISO 242, which offer predictable, reliable cutting edges.Tool Cataloging and Data Systems Integration
The dimensional designation alignment with ISO 13399 assists in the digital management of tooling inventories and integration into computerized manufacturing systems (CAM).

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
