TNGG 160402 SH725 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular ISO insert with double-sided chipbreaker

TNGG160402 SH725 Tungaloy indexable insert is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert engineered for external and internal turning in varying engagement conditions.

• SH725 coated carbide grade
• ISO 160402 triangular form
• Double-sided chipbreaker

Increased process reliability through material and grade selection

The TNGG160402 SH725 is manufactured from coated carbide, delivering a reliable cutting edge and extended tool life under fluctuating cutting conditions. The SH725 grade is designed to combine edge toughness with wear resistance, which reduces unexpected interruptions and regrinds. For operations where tool life and repeatability matter, the coated substrate provides a predictable performance window, enabling fewer tool changes and steadier cycle times.

Compatibility that simplifies tooling choices and reduces downtime

ISO compliance ensures the triangular insert mates with holders when form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping and thickness match. The insert is intended for use with a matching external holder or boring bar, plus a support shim, clamping set and spare fixing screws as part of the system. Specifying the correct holder geometry and recognising the 0° relief angle avoids assembly errors; this clarity prevents mismatches that otherwise cause vibration, poor surface finish or premature edge failure.

Practical advantages for small tools and variable cutting conditions

With a 0.2 mm corner radius and double-sided chipbreaker, the insert supports finishing and light roughing in compact toolholders and situations with changing depths of cut. The triangular form and double-sided design make the insert economical: both cutting edges can be indexed, lowering cost per edge. The moderate included angle and 4.76 mm thickness yield a stable seat in the clamp, while the cylindrical hole provides secure fastening and repeatable positioning. These characteristics suit batch production and mixed-series turning where adaptability and reliable surface quality are required.
