CCGT060204 SH725 CCGT turning insert, coated carbide, rhombic 06 — Tungaloy

The CCGT060204 SH725 is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a tough, edge‑stable grade for variable engagement and smaller tool setups.

• Coated carbide grade SH725, edge stability
• Rhombic 06 form with 80° included angle
• 0.4 mm nose radius for balanced finish and strength
• Single‑sided chipbreaker for consistent chip control

Consistent cutting performance where edge stability matters

The coated carbide SH725 grade delivers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that supports repeatable performance in changing engagement conditions. The 0.4 mm nose radius increases component strength at the cutting edge while still enabling a good surface finish for general turning tasks. Specified as an ISO‑standard insert in the rhombic 06 format, this geometry provides a dependable cutting angle and predictable tool life; the 80° included angle gives a robust cutting edge suited to a wide range of turning operations. For production environments that value process stability, the combination of grade and geometry reduces unexpected tool failures and supports steady cycle times.

Secure mounting and fast tool changes to reduce downtime

The insert features a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamping in compatible holders, and the 2.38 mm plate thickness contributes to mechanical stiffness during cutting. Compatibility with a toolholder is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness, so using ISO‑compliant holders and the correct clamping set ensures repeatable seating and fast index changes. The system composition — insert, outer holder or boring bar, shim/clip and replacement screws — is straightforward, enabling quick swaps and minimised setup time on the shop floor.

Practical application guidance and selection tips

The single‑sided chipbreaker is designed to promote reliable chip formation under a variety of cutting conditions; select the chipbreaker and grade to match the workpiece material and the nature of the cut (continuous vs interrupted). The moderate 7° clearance angle helps to avoid rubbing while maintaining edge support, and the rhombic shape gives flexibility for both external and internal turning. For operations using smaller tools or encountering variable entry and exit conditions, this grade and geometry provide a resilient option that manages edge wear and supports sustained productivity. When specifying inserts for a machining process, consider geometry, nose radius and clamping method as primary factors for achieving the desired surface finish and tool life.

FAQ

What cutting operations is this insert suited for?
The CCGT060204 SH725 insert by Tungaloy is designed primarily for external and internal turning where a tough, edge‑stable grade is required; it performs well in variable engagement conditions and with smaller tooling setups.

How does the 0.4 mm nose radius affect the result?
A 0.4 mm nose radius offers a compromise between strength and finish: the radius increases edge support and tool life while still enabling acceptable surface quality for general turning tasks with the SH725 grade.

Which clamping features ensure secure mounting of the insert?
The insert uses a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) which, together with the matching holder and clamping set, provides secure seating and repeatable positioning for reliable tool changes.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes; the insert is ISO‑standard in the rhombic 06 format, but compatibility depends on holder form, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness — using matching ISO holders and the correct clamping hardware is recommended.

What are the distinguishing characteristics of the SH725 grade?
SH725 is a coated carbide grade engineered for toughness and a stable cutting edge, making it suitable for applications with changing cutting conditions or where small tool sizes are used; this supports consistent machining performance.
