PCLNL2020X PCLN L2020X turning insert by Tungaloy — pentagonal, 7° relief

A PCLNL2020X turning insert engineered for ISO-standard external and internal turning, compatible with matched holders and clamping kits.

• ISO-standard pentagonal insert design
• 7° relief angle for reliable chip control
• Carbide substrate for long tool life
• Suitable for external and internal turning

Reduced setup complexity through ISO conformity

The ISO-standard designation ensures straightforward identification of seat, orientation and clamping requirements, which reduces setup time and minimises potential mounting errors. The pentagonal form offers multiple indexed cutting edges, allowing economical use of the insert across several tool positions. Compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle and tolerance class; this standardised approach benefits production environments that require repeatable, quick insert changes without trial-and-error adjustments.

Robust carbide substrate for stable production

A carbide substrate delivers wear resistance and thermal stability during continuous turning operations, extending service intervals and maintaining dimensional consistency. The material choice supports elevated cutting speeds while preserving edge integrity, which translates into fewer tool changes and more predictable process windows. For shops aiming at productivity gains, the insert's construction helps to balance cutting performance with economical tool consumption.

Geometry tuned for precision turning processes

The combination of a 7° relief and a 108° included angle provides a neutral cutting geometry that favours stable chip formation in a range of turning tasks. While this specific insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, the geometry is suitable for finishing and general-purpose turning when paired with an appropriate chip-control grade or external chipbreaker in the toolholder system. The design supports both external and internal turning operations, enabling versatility across component families.

System-level benefits and straightforward procurement

Delivered as part of an ISO insert system, the component integrates with matching external holders, clamping sets and replacement screws, simplifying inventory and maintenance planning. The standardised approach reduces the need for bespoke fixtures and eases spare-part management. Technical advice is available from Metav Werkzeuge to confirm the correct grade and chipbreaker combination for specific workpiece materials and machining conditions, ensuring reliable process results.

FAQ

What materials can this insert machine reliably?
The Tungaloy PCLNL2020X insert is designed for general turning; grade selection determines suitability for specific materials—Metav Werkzeuge can advise on the correct carbide grade for the required workpiece material.

Is this insert indexed and how many cutting edges are available?
The pentagonal geometry of the PCLNL2020X provides multiple indexed edges; exact edge count follows the pentagonal form and enables economical re-indexing during production.

Does the insert include a chipbreaker?
This PCLNL2020X is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control can be achieved by selecting an appropriate grade or an external chip-control solution in the holder.

Which holder characteristics must be checked for compatibility?
Compatibility with the PCLNL2020X depends on holder form, clearance (relief) angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness—ISO conformity simplifies this verification.

What is the manufacturer article number and SKU for ordering?
The manufacturer article number is 3605973 and the SKU is 3605973-Tungaloy for ordering and inventory reference.
