DGIM 2-020- GH130 Tungaloy turning insert — rhombic 55° geometry, 30° clearance

A DGIM2-020- GH130 Tungaloy insert engineered for external and internal turning, suitable for ISO-compatible toolholders and a wide range of steel and alloy turning tasks

• GH130 wear-resistant grade
• Rhombic 55° geometry
• 30° clearance angle
• Cylindrical hole, single-sided chipbreaker

Reliable cutting performance for stable turning cycles

The combination of the GH130 cutting grade and a carbide substrate provides a balanced mix of wear resistance and edge strength that supports repeatable turning operations. This geometry reduces flank wear and extends the effective tool life, which in turn lowers the need for frequent insert changes and helps to maintain machining quality across series production. The construction is optimised for steady cutting conditions and improved process reliability.

Compatibility with ISO holders and simple clamping checks

Designed to the ISO series for indexable turning inserts, the rhombic 55° geometry and the cylindrical hole ensure compatibility with standard clamping systems; holder matching depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The 30° clearance contributes to reduced rubbing on the flank and improved surface finish; users benefit from straightforward verification of fit and secure mounting, resulting in lower set-up times and predictable tool behaviour.

Practical advantages from a single-sided chipbreaker

The single-sided chipbreaker is tuned to support controlled chip formation in typical external and internal turning tasks, reducing the risk of entanglement and improving evacuation in through-cut and interrupted cuts. Fewer erratic chip events mean better process control and a higher probability of achieving target tolerances with fewer rework cycles. This characteristic makes the insert a sound choice where chip management and consistent surface quality are priorities.

Application scope and material suitability

The insert is intended for turning and is compatible with a broad spectrum of common engineering materials when the appropriate chipbreaker and grade are selected. The carbide construction with the GH130 grade lends itself particularly well to general steel turning and alloyed steels, supporting productive cutting parameters and helping to maintain dimensional stability during longer runs. For specific material mixes or harder alloys, selection of geometry and machining parameters should be coordinated with technical advisors.

FAQ

What is the primary application for this insert?
The DGIM2-020- GH130 Tungaloy insert is intended for external and internal turning in ISO-compatible setups and is designed to work with standard holders that match its form and size.

Which materials suit the GH130 grade best?
The GH130 grade is optimised for a broad range of steels and alloyed steels; the carbide substrate and grade balance wear resistance and edge stability for general turning tasks.

How does the rhombic 55° geometry affect machining?
A rhombic 55° geometry delivers a compromise of strength and accessibility for profiling and finishing, allowing reliable cutting forces and good surface quality in turning operations.

Is the insert compatible with my holder?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the cylindrical hole and ISO designation facilitate matching to standard holders, but holder verification is recommended.

What benefits does the single-sided chipbreaker offer?
The single-sided chipbreaker supports controlled chip formation and evacuation, which reduces entanglement risk and improves process stability during continuous or interrupted cuts.
