CCGT04T104 SH725 indexable insert for turning — Tungaloy

A CCGT04T104 SH725 indexable insert designed for ISO-standard external and internal turning applications, offering a tough coated-carbide grade for variable engagement and small-tool setups

• ISO rhombic insert CCGT 04T104 format
• SH725 coated carbide for tough cuts
• 0.4 mm corner radius for consistent edge
• Countersunk central hole, single-sided chipbreaker

Consistent performance from a tough coated grade

The insert is manufactured in the SH725 grade, a coated carbide engineered for a balance of toughness and edge stability. This composition reduces flank and crater wear under varying cut conditions, which translates into longer periods between indexings and fewer unscheduled tool changes. For workshops running short, repeatable cycles or jobs with fluctuating engagement, the hardened coating and substrate combination supports reliable machining and maintains dimensional control during both light and interrupted cuts.

ISO conformity and simplified tooling decisions

Built to the ISO designation, the insert’s compatibility is defined by its shape, relief angle, tolerance class, mounting style, size and thickness, enabling straightforward matching with external holders, boring bars and clamping kits. The ISO standardisation reduces selection errors, eases inventory management and ensures interchangeability across machines. Included in the system concept are the matching external holder or boring bar, the support shim/clamping set and replacement screws, which together provide a reproducible clamping interface and consistent tool geometry.

Edge geometry and chip control for repeatable results

The rhombic plate with an 80° included angle, 0.4 mm corner radius and 7° relief angle concentrates strength at the cutting edge while the single-sided chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation. The insert’s centre hole with a cylindrical bore and a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) secures positive seating and concentricity in the clamp, supporting stable cutting forces and improved surface finish. With a plate thickness of 1.59 mm, the insert is particularly suited to small-tool arrangements where stiffness and controlled engagement are essential for part accuracy.

Practical benefits for production workflows

Selecting this insert yields measurable advantages: enhanced tool life through the SH725 grade and coated surface, consistent part quality via ISO interchangeability, and reduced set-up variability thanks to the standardised hole and seating geometry. For operations that require both external and internal turning, the combination of edge geometry and chipbreaker minimises rework and supports faster throughput, making it a pragmatic choice for jobbing shops and production lines seeking stability across a range of steels and alloy conditions.

FAQ

What holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on the ISO shape and size; the CCGT04T104 SH725 indexable insert seats in ISO rhombic CCGT holders with matching size, relief and clamping geometry.

Which materials can be machined with this grade?
The SH725 coated carbide is formulated for general turning across a wide material range, offering good edge stability for varying steels and mixed cutting conditions.

What does the 0.4 mm corner radius mean for surface finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and surface finish, helping to produce consistent finishes while resisting premature edge chipping on interrupted cuts.

Is the insert suitable for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the plate form and hole/clamping arrangement are intended for use in both external holders and compatible boring bars for internal turning.

How does the chipbreaker affect machining?
The single-sided chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation and evacuation, which supports stable cutting and reduces the risk of built-up edge under variable feed conditions.
