TPGT070102 SH725 Tungaloy indexable turning insert — triangular, 0.2 mm radius

A TPGT070102 SH725 indexable turning insert engineered for ISO‑standard external and internal turning operations, optimised for variable engagement conditions and small‑tool applications.

• ISO triangular insert TPGT 070102, 60° included angle
• Coated carbide grade SH725 for stable cutting edges
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishing and accuracy
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° single‑side countersink

Reliable performance for variable engagement conditions

The triangular indexable insert delivers a balance of toughness and edge stability through the SH725 coated carbide grade, developed for turning where cutting conditions change frequently. The ISO‑conforming form and dimensions ensure predictable behaviour in a wide range of set‑ups; choosing a grade that supports small tools and intermittent cuts reduces edge chipping and maintains process reliability. The result is less unscheduled downtime and more repeatable component quality during serial production.

Geometry that supports dimensional accuracy and finish

A 60° triangular shape combined with a 0.2 mm corner radius and an 11° clearance angle produces a controlled contact geometry that helps to reduce cutting forces and vibration. The modest corner radius is particularly suited to finishing passes where surface integrity and tight tolerances matter; it allows accurate radius blending and predictable toolpath management. This geometry also eases toolpath programming on lathes and turning centres, supporting consistent surface finish and precise diameters.

Secure clamping and straightforward system integration

Compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) ensures reliable seating and repeatable clamping. The insert thickness of 1.59 mm and the standard ISO size "07" allow use in a wide selection of external holders and boring bars when the appropriate adapter or clamp set is used. The single‑side chipbreaker is suitable for many finishing and medium‑cutting tasks, but selecting the chipformer to match workpiece material and stability will further improve chip control.

Coating and grade selection for productive machining

The SH725 coating and substrate combination is designed to provide a tough, edge‑stable performance that extends tool life under variable feeds and interrupted cuts. In practice this translates into fewer indexings, steadier process windows and improved overall productivity. Where higher process security or finer surface finishes are required, pairing the insert with a stable holder and optimised cutting data will maximise the benefit of the coating and geometry without compromising part quality.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TPGT070102 SH725 insert is a coated carbide grade designed for a broad range of turning tasks; its toughness and edge stability suit many steels and mixed‑condition operations, while chipformer selection should match the specific workpiece material.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius influence finishing?
A 0.2 mm radius provides a compromise between strength and finish: it reduces the risk of chipping compared with smaller radii and still allows fine surface quality for final passes when using appropriate feeds and speeds.

Is this insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes. The ISO designation and the insert’s form, thickness (1.59 mm) and hole style permit use in ISO‑compliant external holders and boring bars provided the holder matches the insert size, tolerance class and fixing method.

What is the purpose of the single‑side chipbreaker?
The single‑side chipbreaker assists in controlling chip formation during external and internal turning; combining the chipbreaker with the right feed and material selection improves chip evacuation and surface integrity.

Can the insert handle interrupted cuts and variable engagement?
The SH725 coated carbide is formulated for edge stability under variable engagement conditions, making the insert suitable for applications with intermittent cuts, particularly when clamping and machine rigidity are adequate.
