TCGT080202 SH725 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning — triangular, 7° clearance

TCGT080202 SH725 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert designed for external and internal turning applications, offering a tough, edge‑stable grade for variable engagement conditions

• ISO triangular insert TCGT 080202 SH725
• Coated carbide grade SH725 for stable edges
• 7° clearance angle with 0.2 mm corner radius
• Cylindrical hole with countersink 40°–60°

Greater edge stability for variable cutting conditions

The SH725 grade is a coated carbide developed to deliver tough, edge‑stable performance, which means fewer unexpected edge failures and more consistent component quality. In practice, this translates to longer effective tool life when cutting under varying depths of cut or intermittent engagements, and a more predictable finish on turned parts. The modest 0.2 mm corner radius supports improved surface quality on light to moderate finishing passes while reducing the risk of chipping when tool engagement varies. For shops seeking steady production without constant tool changes, this insert offers a tangible reduction in process interruptions.

ISO compatibility and secure clamping reduce set‑up time

Designed to the ISO system, the insert’s form and dimensions ensure interchangeability with compatible holders; compatibility depends on form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, all of which are standardised. The triangular shape with a central cylindrical hole and a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) provides secure seating and repeatable positioning in both external holders and boring bars. At 2.38 mm thickness, the insert offers sufficient rigidity to resist vibration in many applications, aiding dimensional stability and making inventory management simpler through standard parts that fit a wide range of toolholders.

Practical chip control and application flexibility

This insert features a single‑sided chipbreaker suited to general turning; selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade in line with workpiece material and machine stability yields the best results. The combination of coated carbide and the chipbreaker design helps to control swarf and direct chips away from the cutting zone, improving tool life and surface finish. For smaller tools or operations where cutting conditions change frequently, the grade’s toughness reduces the likelihood of edge failure, enabling more productive cycles and less operator intervention.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The TCGT080202 SH725 indexable insert is optimised as a tough, edge‑stable coated carbide for general turning; selection of the appropriate chipbreaker and cutting data should be matched to the specific workpiece material.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect surface finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius offers a balance between strength and finish: it improves edge robustness while still enabling fine surface quality on finishing and light profiling passes.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert follows ISO dimensions and will be compatible with holders that match the form, clearance, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness specified for ISO triangular turning plates.

What benefits does the SH725 grade provide in production?
The SH725 grade provides stable cutting edges and toughness, which reduces the incidence of chipping under variable engagement and supports consistent component quality across shifts.

Does the insert include a hole for secure clamping?
Yes, the design includes a cylindrical hole with a one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) to ensure secure and repeatable clamping in the toolholder.
