TPGT070104 SH725 Tungaloy turning insert

The TPGT070104 SH725 Tungaloy is an ISO‑standard triangular turning insert designed for external and internal turning, providing robust edge stability and controlled chip formation for a wide range of machining conditions.

• ISO‑standard triangular geometry
• SH725 coated carbide grade
• 11° clearance angle for broad versatility
• Cylindrical hole with countersink

Consistent cutting performance for demanding turning tasks

The SH725 grade is a coated carbide substrate developed for tough, edge‑stable performance in turning operations. Its single‑sided chip control geometry reduces the risk of snarled chips and supports stable metal removal, particularly where engagement conditions change frequently. The triangular form and 60° cutting angle enable versatile corner use, while the 0.4 mm corner radius balances strength and finish. This combination yields predictable tool behaviour across short‑run and production environments, reducing setup interruptions and contributing to stable process capability.

Simple integration and secure clamping in standard holders

Compatibility with holder systems is defined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness. The insert features a cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°), which ensures repeatable seating and straightforward clamping in compatible external holders or boring bars. A plate thickness of 1.59 mm and 11° clearance angle mean the insert sits correctly in ISO‑defined pockets; tolerance conformity simplifies tool changeovers and reduces fixturing uncertainty, supporting quicker changeover times and consistent part quality.

Application scope and operational benefits for turning

Intended for both external and internal turning, this indexable insert offers a pragmatic balance between edge robustness and machinability. The SH725 composition is particularly suited to smaller tools and variable cut conditions where a tough edge is required. For practical operation, selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade relative to material and machining stability is essential; this insert’s one‑sided chipbreaker provides improved evacuation in many common turning scenarios. The result is longer effective edge life and lower tooling expenditure per finished part.

Practical considerations and maintenance recommendations

To achieve the best service life, match the insert grade and chipbreaker to the workpiece material and cutting parameters. The ISO‑standard designation simplifies stockkeeping and replacement logistics: spare inserts and clamping kits can be held for rapid swaps. Regular inspection of the clamping screw and seat condition helps maintain the insert’s repeatable position and preserves the expected surface finish and dimensional consistency. Where occasional heavier cuts are required, the insert’s geometry and coated carbide substrate support short bursts of higher load without immediate edge failure.

FAQ

What holder types are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on holder geometry; the TPGT070104 SH725 insert fits holders accepting ISO triangular inserts with a cylindrical hole and single‑side countersink, ensuring correct seating and clamping.

Which workpiece materials suit the SH725 grade best?
The SH725 grade is a tough, edge‑stable coated carbide designed for general turning; it is particularly effective where small tools or variable engagement conditions demand robust cutting edges.

How does the one‑sided chipbreaker affect machining?
A one‑sided chipbreaker on this insert improves chip control on the designated cutting side, promoting safer chip evacuation and more consistent surface finish during turning.

What does the 11° clearance angle mean in practice?
The 11° clearance angle provides a balance between strength and clearance for the cutting edge, reducing rubbing and heat while maintaining rigidity for common turning operations.

How is the insert identified and ordered?
Order using the ISO designation TPGT070104 SH725 and manufacturer article number 6737297; the SKU TUN6737297 can be used for internal stock and supplier references.
