RCGX120700 TS300 Turning Insert — Tungaloy

The RCGX120700-T1 is an ISO‑standard turning indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a TS300 carbide grade and a T1 chipbreaker for controlled material removal.

• ISO-standard turning insert TS300 grade
• Round 12 mm insert, 7.94 mm thickness
• Tungaloy carbide for wear resistance

Stable cutting performance for high‑throughput turning

The RCGX120700‑T1 is engineered to deliver repeatable results in production environments where stability matters. The insert’s TS300 grade combines wear resistance with sufficient toughness to reduce edge chipping, which means longer intervals between indexings and less machine downtime. With an ISO‑compliant geometry, the component ensures predictable interaction with compatible toolholders; this predictability translates into consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy for serial turning work. Emphasising measurable outcomes, the design focuses on process reliability and throughput rather than speculative claims.

Simple mounting and predictable holder compatibility

Compatibility of the insert depends on the insert form, 7° clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The round profile and the specified dimensions (12 mm diameter, 7.94 mm thickness) let engineers verify holder fit quickly and avoid costly trials. The special hole style requires the corresponding clamping system; once the correct seat and clamp are selected, repeat mounting is fast and stable. Explaining the technical terms: the clearance angle prevents rubbing on the workpiece, while the chipbreaker geometry (T1) shapes chips to reduce entanglement and heat buildup — both contributing to improved cycle stability.

Material choice and chip control explained

Made from carbide and supplied in Tungaloy’s TS300 grade, the insert focuses on balanced performance: wear resistance for extended life and edge stability for accuracy. The T1 chipbreaker is matched to conventional turning tasks and aids controlled fragmentation on a wide range of steels and common alloys. For users less familiar with insert grades, TS300 should be read as a versatile cutting material optimised for turning: it does not represent a single surface coating but a grade selection that complements the insert geometry to achieve longer tool life and reliable results under typical cutting conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The Tungaloy RCGX120700‑T1 insert in TS300 grade is intended for general turning applications and performs well on a broad range of steels and alloyed materials; suitability should be confirmed against the specific workpiece material and cutting parameters.

How does the T1 chipbreaker affect machining?
The T1 chipbreaker on the insert promotes controlled chip formation, reducing entanglement and heat concentration; this results in steadier cutting conditions and helps preserve edge life of the RCGX120700‑T1 insert.

Which dimensions are critical when checking holder compatibility?
Key dimensions are the round plate diameter (12 mm), thickness (7.94 mm) and the 7° clearance angle; these, together with the insert’s ISO designation, determine whether a holder or boring bar is compatible.

Is the insert supplied with a coating?
The product is specified as TS300 grade carbides; for information on any additional surface finishes or coatings, refer to the grade specification TS300 as supplied by Tungaloy.

What is the manufacturer SKU and article number for ordering?
Ordering references are Manufacturer SKU TUN6182037 and article number 6182037 for the RCGX120700‑T1 turning insert.
