DCGT 070200 SH725 — Tungaloy ISO turning insert (rhombic 07, 55°)

The DCGT070200 SH725 is an ISO‑standard indexable turning insert designed for general turning applications, offering a compact rhombic geometry for versatile external and internal machining.

*ISO‑standard rhombic 07 insert
*Coated carbide grade SH725
*7° relief angle for stable cutting
*Cylindrical hole with countersink 40°–60°
*2.38 mm thickness for secure clamping

Dependable cutting performance for variable engagements

The DCGT070200 series combines a coated carbide substrate with the SH725 grade, engineered to provide a balance between toughness and wear resistance. This makes the insert particularly suitable for operations where smaller tools or changing depths of cut are common. The result is a stable cutting edge that reduces the risk of premature edge failure and helps maintain consistent surface finish. By selecting an appropriate chipbreaker and matching the grade to the workpiece and machine stability, productivity is improved while tool-change frequency is reduced, supporting cost‑effective machining.

Designed for straightforward mounting and ISO compatibility

Compatibility with toolholders depends on geometry, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the ISO‑standard designation ensures predictable fitting with ISO‑compliant external holders and boring bars. Key mounting characteristics are the rhombic 07 form, a 55° included angle, a 7° relief angle and a 2.38 mm plate thickness, together with a cylindrical hole featuring a single‑side countersink (40°–60°). These defined features simplify selection and secure clamping, reducing setup time and improving repeatability across production batches.

Practical application advice for consistent results

Use the insert for both external and internal turning where a single‑sided chipbreaker is appropriate; the chip control and edge properties of the SH725 grade favour operations with fluctuating engagement or interrupted cuts. For materials and cutting conditions that demand increased toughness rather than the hardest wear resistance, this grade delivers reliable performance. Combining the single‑sided chipbreaker with the correct feed and speed settings will optimise chip evacuation and protect the cutting edge, leading to longer in‑process life and more consistent cycle times on the shop floor.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The DCGT070200 SH725 insert is a coated carbide grade formulated for general turning; selection of the chipbreaker and machining parameters should be matched to the workpiece material and production conditions.

How does the SH725 grade affect tool life?
SH725 provides increased toughness and edge stability, helping to extend in‑process life when machining with small tools or under variable engagement compared with harder, more brittle grades.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO dimensions and mounting conventions; compatibility is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness.

What clamping features must the holder support?
Holders should accept a rhombic 07 insert with a cylindrical hole and single‑side countersink (40°–60°), and provide secure support for a 2.38 mm thickness plate.

Can this insert be used for internal turning?
The insert is suitable for both external and internal turning when the toolholder provides adequate rigidity and chip evacuation for the chosen application.
