VNMG160404 GT9530 VNMG cermet turning insert (ISO 160404) by Tungaloy

A VNMG160404 GT9530 indexable turning insert designed for finishing to light universal turning of steel, ISO‑standard rhombic form with cylindrical hole for secure mounting

• Coated cermet grade GT9530 for long life
• ISO‑standard VNMG160404 form for broad compatibility
• Rhombic shape with cylindrical hole for secure clamping
• Double-sided chipbreaker for finishing to light cuts

Consistent finish quality and prolonged cutting performance

The VNMG‑style indexable insert combines a wear‑resistant coated cermet grade with geometry tuned for finishing, delivering a reliably fine surface finish in stable machining conditions. The GT9530 coating enhances abrasion resistance and promotes predictable wear patterns, which reduces variability in component quality and lowers rework rates. Thanks to the insert’s precise ISO form and ground edges, the approach produces repeatable results across multiple tool changes, supporting steady production throughput and predictable tool‑change intervals.

Reliable chip control and secure clamping for efficient turning

A double‑sided chipbreaker and the rhombic plate geometry promote consistent chip formation in light turning operations of steel, improving evacuation and reducing the risk of surface marks. The cylindrical hole and standardised tolerances ensure positive clamping in compatible holders, limiting micro‑movement that can degrade finish and shorten life. Together, improved chip control and firm mounting translate into fewer stoppages and higher process efficiency in batch and single‑piece production alike.

Easy integration into ISO tooling systems and practical workshop benefits

The insert’s ISO designation and standard dimensions simplify selection and replacement: compatibility with holders depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness, making the VNMG160404 easy to match with existing toolholders. Using a coated cermet grade for finishing demands stable cutting parameters and offers a favourable balance between tool life and surface quality; for workshops aiming to raise first‑pass yield, the insert provides a cost‑effective route to better component surfaces without complex parameter tuning.

FAQ

Is this insert compatible with standard VNMG holders?
Compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; the VNMG160404 GT9530 insert uses the ISO‑standard form to maximise interchangeability with matching VNMG holders.

For which materials is the GT9530 grade recommended?
The GT9530 coated cermet is optimised for finishing to light universal turning of steel, offering good surface quality and extended tool life under stable cutting conditions.

How is chip control achieved with this insert?
Chip control is provided by the double‑sided chipbreaker geometry; combined with the rhombic form and secure clamping via the cylindrical hole, it promotes consistent chip formation and evacuation.

Can the insert be indexed to use both sides?
Yes; the double‑sided design permits indexing to a fresh cutting edge, effectively doubling the usable cutting positions and contributing to economical tool utilisation.

What benefits does the coated cermet provide compared with conventional carbide?
Coated cermet offers improved wear resistance and a superior surface finish in finishing operations; the GT9530 coating further stabilises wear, supporting longer, predictable service life under appropriate conditions.
