TPGT 070100 SH725 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular ISO turning insert, 60° cutting angle

The TPGT 070100 SH725 is an ISO‑standard, triangular, coated carbide insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a balanced combination of edge stability and adaptability for variable engagement conditions.

• Coated carbide grade SH725 for stable cutting
• Triangular insert, 60° cutting angle
• Single-sided chipbreaker for consistent chips
• Cylindrical hole, countersink 40°–60°

Reliable cutting performance for varied turning tasks

The design of this insert focuses on process reliability: the SH725 coating and carbide substrate provide a combination of toughness and edge stability suited to changing engagement and smaller tooling setups. The coated carbide construction increases resistance to abrasive wear while maintaining a durable cutting edge, which translates into fewer indexings and more consistent cycle times. For manufacturers seeking predictable throughput, the insert’s balance between toughness and wear resistance contributes directly to a more efficient production flow and reduced unplanned downtime.

Easy integration with ISO holders and secure clamping

Compatibility is determined by form, clearance, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness; the triangular geometry and standard dimensions make integration into common external holders and boring bars straightforward. The 11° clearance angle and standardised ISO designation mean the insert seats predictably in clamp pockets, reducing setup time and ensuring repeatable positioning. Explaining the technical term: ISO‑standard inserts conform to established shape and size codes so toolrooms can replace or rotate inserts without re‑qualifying the holder, improving maintainability and workshop throughput.

Consistent chip control and improved surface outcomes

Equipped with a single-sided chipbreaker, the insert promotes reliable chip formation across a range of feeds and depths of cut. Efficient chip control reduces the risk of entanglement and protects both the workpiece and tool, leading to improved surface finish and safer unattended machining. In short runs or mixed batches, predictable chip behaviour contributes to higher first‑pass quality and fewer rework cycles, which is especially relevant for shops aiming to maintain high yield and reduced inspection overhead.

Practical specification and material guidance for turning applications

The triangular 60° geometry with 1.59 mm plate thickness and size 07 offers a compact, rigid cutting edge suitable for light to moderate turning tasks. The insert’s cylindrical hole with one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) enables secure clamping and straightforward indexation. Use the insert for general turning of steels and non‑hardened materials where a tough, wear‑resistant cutting edge is required; selection of the chipbreaker and cutting parameters should be matched to the workpiece material and machine stability for optimum results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The TPGT 070100 SH725 insert is intended for turning applications where a tough, edge‑stable coated carbide grade is beneficial; it performs well on a wide range of steels and typical non‑hardened materials.

How does the single‑sided chipbreaker affect performance?
The single‑sided chipbreaker provides consistent chip formation for safer evacuation and improved surface finish when using the Tungaloy SH725 turning insert, particularly in variable engagement conditions.

What does the ISO code 070100 indicate?
The ISO code 070100 specifies the insert geometry and size family; it ensures the insert fits ISO‑compliant holders sized for 07, enabling predictable clamping and repeatable positioning.

Can this insert be used for internal boring as well as external turning?
Yes, the triangular 60° geometry and standard hole style allow the insert to be used in suitable boring bars and external holders for internal operations, provided the holder accepts the ISO 070100 format.

What should be considered when selecting cutting parameters?
Choose feed and depth of cut based on workpiece material, machine rigidity and toolholder stability; the SH725 grade favours conditions where edge toughness and wear resistance are required, and matching the chipbreaker to the material improves productivity.
