DCGT 11T302 SH725 indexable turning insert by Tungaloy – ISO turning application

A DCGT11T302 SH725 indexable insert for ISO turning, designed for external and internal turning with a rhombic 55° geometry and a 0.2 mm corner radius.

• DCGT 11T302 geometry for ISO turning
• SH725 coated carbide for stable cutting edges
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precision finishes
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Reliable performance under changing engagement conditions

The coated carbide composition and the SH725 grade provide a balance of toughness and edge stability that is particularly useful where cutting conditions vary or when using smaller tools. The coating and carbide substrate reduce premature wear and help maintain a consistent cutting edge, which in turn extends tool life and reduces unplanned changeovers. As an ISO-standard insert, the item fits a wide range of holders; compatibility depends on the insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, which are all standardised to enable straightforward replacement and inventory management.

Geometry engineered for quality surface finishes and secure clamping

The rhombic shape with a 55° included angle and the small 0.2 mm corner radius are intended to produce fine surface quality on external and internal turning operations while controlling cutting forces. The insert’s single-sided chipbreaker helps form short chips that evacuate reliably, reducing the risk of re-cutting and improving process stability. The central cylindrical hole with a 40°–60° single-sided countersink ensures positive, repeatable clamping in compatible ISO-style seats, supporting consistent alignment and minimising runout for better repeatability.

Economical system solution for production and job shops

As part of a standard turning system — insert, compatible external holder or boring bar, shim/clamp set and replacement screws — this grade supports efficient tool management and fast changeovers. The modest thickness and compact size are well suited to light to medium-duty turning, allowing pragmatic tooling choices where tool overhang and rigidity are limiting factors. Selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and SH725 grade for the workpiece material will deliver a cost-effective balance between tool life and component quality, reducing total machining costs through fewer interruptions and steady cycle times.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DCGT11T302 SH725 insert is a coated carbide grade designed for versatile turning; the SH725 grade is formulated for toughness and edge stability, so selection should match the workpiece material and machining conditions.

How is the insert clamped in the holder?
Clamping uses the central cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) to engage standard ISO seats; the DCGT11T302 insert is secured with the corresponding clamp and screw system.

What advantage does the 0.2 mm corner radius provide?
A 0.2 mm corner radius reduces cutting stress concentration and improves surface finish on medium to light turning passes, while still allowing good edge strength for interrupted cuts.

Does the insert fit any ISO holder?
The insert follows ISO geometry for DCGT 11T302; compatibility with a holder depends on matching the form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness to the holder’s seat.

What is the effect of the single-sided chipbreaker?
The single-sided chipbreaker is designed to form shorter chips under typical turning feeds, improving chip control and reducing the chance of chips interfering with the workpiece or tool.

Is this insert suitable for small-tool setups?
Yes, the SH725 grade and the insert’s dimensions make it suitable for smaller tools or applications where cutting conditions change, offering a compromise between tool life and adaptability.
