RCGX 120700 TS300 — Turning insert (T1 chipbreaker) by Tungaloy
RCGX120700-T1 TS300 is an ISO-standard turning insert designed for external and internal turning in precision metalcutting applications
- ISO turning insert RCGX 120700 format
- TS300 grade for enhanced wear resistance
- T1 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
- Round 12 mm plate, 7.94 mm thickness
Consistent cutting performance for turning operations
The insert delivers a balanced performance tailored to conventional and demanding turning tasks. The combination of the TS300 carbide grade and the T1 chipbreaker provides improved wear resistance and steady edge stability, reducing unscheduled tool changes. Explained simply, the grade blends hardness for abrasion resistance with sufficient toughness to avoid premature chipping, which benefits shops requiring reproducible surface quality and longer tool life.
Better chip control and surface finish through geometry
A round plate with a dedicated chip-control geometry ensures reliable chip formation across varying depths of cut. The T1 chipbreaker promotes short, segmented chips during interrupted cuts and continuous chips at smoother feeds, reducing the risk of entanglement and improving swarf evacuation. For operators less familiar with chipformers: this means fewer machining interruptions and cleaner processes on the shop floor, with a direct positive effect on cycle time and workplace safety.
Straightforward integration into existing tool systems
Compatibility with holders is determined by shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness — parameters that this insert follows as per ISO conventions. The round geometry and the ISO designation facilitate selection of a suitable outer holder or boring bar. Where quick retrofits are required, the standardised form and the clearly defined mounting features simplify inventory management and lower tooling logistics complexity.
Material and grade advantages for productive machining
Manufactured from high-quality cemented carbide, the grade TS300 from Tungaloy is optimised for a wide range of steels and general workshop applications. The insert’s construction aims for a balanced compromise between long life and predictable wear progression; this supports higher productivity by extending intervals between indexings and replacements. For precision tasks, stable cutting edges translate into consistent part dimensions and reduced rework.
