TNGG 160402 SH725 ISO turning insert (triangular, 60°) by Tungaloy

TNGG 160402 SH725 is an ISO‑standard triangular insert engineered for external and internal turning where steady edge life and reliable chip control under varying engagement conditions are required.

• Coated carbide SH725 for robust edge life
• Triangular 60° geometry, 0.2 mm radius
• Double‑sided chipbreaker for flexible use
• ISO‑compliant geometry for common holders

Longer, more reliable edge life under variable engagement

The SH725 grade is a coated carbide formulation designed to maintain cutting‑edge integrity when cutting conditions change, such as varying depth of cut or interrupted cuts. That toughness translates to fewer insert changes and steadier component quality in small‑tool setups; the result is reduced downtime and predictable tool performance. The coating improves wear resistance while the substrate resists chipping, so the user benefits from a balance of durability and economy.

Predictable geometry for consistent surface finish

A triangular insert with a 60° included angle and a 0.2 mm nose radius provides a good compromise between versatility and precision. The defined geometry supports repeatable cutting paths and predictable forces, which helps to achieve consistent surface quality on turned parts. The 4.76 mm thickness and standardised ISO form also contribute to dimensional stability in the holder, making depth‑of‑cut and feed calculations straightforward for process planning.

Practical handling and system compatibility for workshop use

The insert is double‑sided and comes with a cylindrical hole, enabling stable clamping and economical indexability. Compatibility with a wide range of ISO holders is determined by insert shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; this indexable plate fits common turning systems when those parameters match. Choosing the correct chipbreaker and grade for the workpiece material and machining strategy will ensure efficient chip control and consistent machining results.
