CNGG 120404 TH10 rhomboid turning insert for Drehen — Tungaloy, uncoated carbide, 0.4 mm radius

CNGG 120404 TH10 Tungaloy turning insert provides a compact, ISO‑conforming solution for external and internal turning where low cutting forces and clean surface generation are required

• ISO rhomboid insert, 12 mm size
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for low cutting forces
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole
• 0.4 mm corner radius, 0° clearance angle

High-efficiency turning for non‑ferrous materials

The rhomboid ISO insert delivers predictable performance in conventional turning. The uncoated carbide TH10 grade is engineered for applications with non‑ferrous materials and situations that benefit from a sharp, uncoated edge; this supports reduced cutting forces and contributes to a cleaner surface finish. The insert’s single cutting geometry reduces the need for excessive feed adjustments, which helps to maintain steady cycle times and consistent part quality on lathes and turning centres.

Geometry and clamping: dependable fit and repeatable results

Designed to ISO dimensions, the insert’s rhomboid form and tolerance class determine compatibility with corresponding holders and boring bars. The cylindrical hole and standard fixing ensure stable seating in the pocket, while the double‑sided chipbreaker allows reversal of the cutting edge for extended productivity. The 0° clearance angle and 0.4 mm corner radius balance edge strength and form accuracy, making the geometry suitable for finishing passes and for operations where delicate edge behaviour is advantageous.

Choosing and integrating the insert into the tool system

Selection should consider the workpiece material, machining strategy and machine rigidity. The insert forms part of a system that includes the ISO insert, suitable external holder or boring bar and correct clamping set. Because the grade is uncoated carbide, it is particularly useful where low adhesion and minimal built‑up edge are desired. For less experienced engineers, the indexable design simplifies inventory management and reduces downtime through easy rotation or replacement when the edge is worn.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for aluminium and other non‑ferrous metals?
Yes. The TH10 uncoated carbide grade is intended for non‑ferrous materials and supports low cutting forces and clean surface generation when used as a turning insert.

Can the insert be used both externally and internally?
Yes. The ISO rhomboid geometry and cylindrical hole allow mounting in compatible external holders and boring bars for both external and internal turning operations.

How does the double‑sided chipbreaker affect productivity?
The double‑sided chipbreaker enables the insert to be indexed to a fresh cutting edge, extending tool life and reducing tool change frequency for continuous production.

What does the 0° clearance angle mean for machining?
A 0° clearance angle indicates a neutral relief that, combined with a sharp uncoated edge, helps to reduce cutting forces while maintaining a defined cutting geometry for good surface finish.

Which system components are required to use this ISO insert?
The insert is part of a system comprising the ISO turning insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a support/locking kit and replacement fixing screws compatible with the holder.
