TNMG160404 GT9530 TNMG turning insert — Tungaloy (coated cermet, 0.4 mm nose)

TNMG160404 GT9530 is a triangular ISO-indexable turning insert designed for finishing and light universal turning of steel, delivering a fine surface and predictable wear performance.

• High wear resistance on finishing cuts
• Excellent surface quality for turned parts
• ISO compatibility with standard holders
• Double-sided chipbreaker for economical use

Consistent surface quality for demanding turning tasks

The GT9530 grade is a coated cermet developed for stable finishing operations on steel where a superior surface is required. The combination of a wear-resistant substrate and a purpose-designed coating reduces built-up edge and maintains cutting-edge geometry, which results in a more consistent finish part after part. For users seeking repeatable results in production runs, the insert’s geometry and the 0.4 mm nose radius support low-vibration cutting that helps preserve the integrity of the workpiece surface. The ISO designation ensures clear selection when replacing worn inserts or matching inserts to existing toolholders.

Longer tool life and productive machining under stable conditions

This insert’s composition and cutting geometry translate into extended tool life during finishing and light turning operations. The coated cermet substrate tolerates abrasive wear better than uncoated grades, so downtime for insert changes is reduced and mean time between interventions increases. The double-sided design doubles the available cutting edges before replacement, improving cost-efficiency on long runs. In practice, choosing this grade can lower tool-change frequency and support steady output, especially where processing parameters remain stable and machine rigidity is sufficient.

Easy integration and reliable clamping for workshop use

Compatibility to standard tooling is determined by the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; this series conforms to ISO norms to ensure straightforward replacement and tool inventory management. The insert features a cylindrical hole for secure fastening in compatible holders and a 4.76 mm plate thickness that provides robust support under cutting forces. These characteristics simplify tool setup and reduce the risk of incorrect mating to holders, making the product suitable for production environments that value predictable, fast tool changes and minimal setup complexity.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TNMG160404 GT9530 insert is intended primarily for machining steel in finishing to light universal operations, where good surface quality and longer life under stable conditions are required.

How does the GT9530 grade improve productivity?
The GT9530 coated cermet reduces abrasive wear and stabilises edge life, so the TNMG160404 insert maintains cutting geometry longer and lowers the frequency of tool changes, improving overall productivity.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO indexable insert conventions; compatibility with a holder depends on matching the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness.

What are the key geometric specifications to check before ordering?
Key specifications include the corner radius (0.4 mm), plate thickness (4.76 mm), size (16 mm), included angle (60°) and the presence of a cylindrical hole for fixing.

Can this insert be used for roughing operations?
This grade is optimised for finishing and light universal turning; for heavy roughing, a different geometry or a tougher substrate would be more suitable than GT9530.
