TNGG 160404 SH725 Tungaloy turning insert — ISO triangular 16 mm, coated carbide

TNGG160404 SH725 is an ISO-standard triangular indexable insert for external and internal turning, offering a tough, edge-stable coated-carbide grade that performs well in variable engagement and smaller-tool applications.

• ISO triangular insert, 16 mm size
• Coated carbide grade SH725
• 0° relief with 60° geometry
• Double-sided chipbreaker with cylindrical hole

High-performance coated-carbide grade for consistent productivity

The coated carbide SH725 composition provides a balance of toughness and edge stability that is especially advantageous when machining with smaller toolholders or under fluctuating cutting conditions. The coating improves wear resistance while the substrate retains fracture toughness, which together reduces tool changes and supports longer tool life. This indexable solution is designed to deliver repeatable cutting behaviour; the coating and substrate combination helps maintain dimensional consistency across serial runs and short production batches.

Secure clamping and ISO compatibility for straightforward integration

Designed as an ISO-standard indexable plate, compatibility with a suitable holder depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The triangular geometry with a 0° relief angle and a cylindrical hole ensures positive seating and secure clamping in appropriate external holders or boring bars. The 16 mm size and 4.76 mm thickness provide straightforward integration into established tool systems, while the double-sided chipbreaker enables two cutting positions per insert, improving economy in routine turning tasks.

Application-focused design that supports diverse turning tasks

Intended for both external and internal turning, the insert’s double-sided chipbreaker and 60° cutting geometry promote controlled chip formation and stable cutting forces when matched to the correct holder and machining parameters. The plate is especially suitable where variable engagement or interrupted cuts occur, since the SH725 grade emphasises stable cutting edges over extreme hardness. For best results, select the chipbreaker and grade to match workpiece material, machining strategy and machine stability, thereby optimising surface finish and tool life.

FAQ

What cutting operations is this insert intended for?
The TNGG160404 SH725 turning insert is designed for external and internal turning, with a double-sided chipbreaker suited to varied engagement conditions.

Which grade and coating does the insert feature?
This insert uses the coated carbide SH725 grade, which combines toughness and edge stability for reliable performance under changing cutting conditions.

How is compatibility with holders ensured?
Compatibility is determined by holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the ISO designation and cylindrical hole support secure clamping when matched correctly.

How many usable edges does the plate provide?
The triangular, double-sided design offers multiple indexed cutting positions, improving economy by permitting the use of more than one cutting edge per plate.

Is this insert suitable for interrupted cuts or varying engagements?
Yes; the SH725 grade and the insert’s geometry are chosen to provide stable cutting edges and controlled chip formation in variable-engagement scenarios.
