TNMG160404 T9235 — Tungaloy indexable insert for turning, CVD-coated carbide, 0.4 mm radius

A TNMG160404 T9235 indexable turning insert engineered for external and internal turning applications, optimised for steel machining under interrupted or unstable cutting conditions.

• ISO 160404 triangle form for standard holders
• CVD-coated carbide T9235 for steel applications
• Double-sided chipbreaker for interrupted cuts
• 0.4 mm corner radius for general finishing

Increase process reliability in steel turning

The combination of CVD-coated carbide and the T9235 grade delivers a balance of toughness and wear resistance that suits lower cutting speeds and interrupted cuts. As an indexable insert, the geometry provides repeatable seating and consistent edge position, which reduces set-up time and supports stable cycle times. The double-sided chipbreaker controls chip formation even when conditions vary, decreasing the risk of workpiece damage and tool-related stoppages. This focus on predictable performance helps maintain throughput and reduces the need for unscheduled tool changes.

Simple integration with ISO-standard holders and compact clamping systems

Compatibility is determined by form, relief, tolerance, fastening, size and thickness; the ISO 160404 designation ensures fit with matching toolholders. The insert features a 0° relief angle, a 4.76 mm thickness and a cylindrical hole, enabling secure clamping and correct seat support in many common external toolholders and boring bars. Clear specification of these parameters simplifies tool selection and minimises trial-and-error during tool set-up, improving machine utilisation and reducing fixture-related rejects.

Robust edge geometry for interrupted and unstable setups

With a 0.4 mm corner radius and a triangular plate form, the insert delivers a compromise between edge strength and surface finish. The TNMG160404 T9235 grade is designed to withstand shock loads from interrupted cuts and to perform where rigidity is limited. The CVD coating contributes to thermal stability at the cutting edge, while the chipbreaker design aids consistent chip evacuation. For workshops seeking dependable results on steel components, this insert offers measurable gains in cycle consistency and tool life without requiring complex process changes.

FAQ

What applications suit this insert best? The TNMG160404 T9235 insert is intended for external and internal turning of steel, especially under interrupted cutting or less rigid set-ups.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders? Yes — the ISO 160404 designation and its triangular form ensure compatibility with matching ISO holders when form, tolerance and fastening correspond.

How does the T9235 grade perform compared with other grades? The T9235 grade provides increased toughness and thermal stability due to its CVD-coated carbide composition, making it suitable for lower cutting speeds and unstable machining conditions.

What does the double-sided chipbreaker deliver in daily operation? The double-sided chipbreaker supports consistent chip control across index rotations, helping to avoid chip-related interruptions and improving edge life during interrupted cuts.

What are the key geometric parameters to check when selecting a holder? Attention should be paid to the ISO code (160404), relief angle (0°), thickness (4.76 mm), plate size (16 mm) and hole style (cylindrical) to guarantee proper seating and clamping.
