CNGG 120408 TH10 Wendeplatten - Tungaloy

Take advantage of the combination of a sharp TH10 grade, uncoated carbide cutting edge and an 80° rhombic geometry for efficient external and internal turning; order original inserts directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the specialists if holder compatibility needs checking.

CNGG 120408 TH10 — Tungaloy CNGG120408 turning insert, rhombic 80°

The CNGG120408 TH10 is an ISO‑standard rhombic indexable insert for precision turning, designed for applications in which low cutting forces and clean surface finishes are required.

• Sharp TH10 universal grade for low cutting forces
• Uncoated carbide for clean surface finish
• 80° rhombic geometry for versatile turning
• Double-sided chipbreaker, cylindrical hole

Greater productivity with lower cutting forces

The insert is manufactured from uncoated carbide, the main advantage being a sharp cutting edge that reduces the energy required for material removal. As a result, tool load is lowered and feed rates can be maintained in many non‑ferrous and soft material operations. The TH10 grade is a universal, sharp‑edged formulation that supports stable cutting when a clean surface is the priority; the ISO conformity ensures predictable performance across standard indexable turning systems. Compatibility is determined by the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, which are specified so that selection and set‑up are straightforward.

Reliable chip control and secure clamping for consistent results

A double‑sided chipbreaker combined with a cylindrical hole provides repeatable chip formation and a secure seat in the holder, reducing vibration and preserving surface integrity. The 80° rhombic geometry offers a balance between strength and access to profile detail, while the 0.8 mm corner radius moderates transition zones to avoid sudden load peaks; this yields a reliable surface finish without excessive tool wear. Where higher stability is needed, holders with matching seat geometry and clamping elements should be chosen to make the most of the insert’s design.

System compatibility and practical benefits for everyday machining

Supplied as part of the ISO indexable turning insert family, this plate integrates into a system comprising an external holder or boring bar, a support pad or clamping set and replacement screws. The combination of ISO standardisation, robust carbide substrate and a sharp cutting edge supports short set‑up times and predictable replacement cycles. For shops focused on process repeatability, the insert’s geometry and grade offer a practical compromise between tool life and surface quality, enabling consistent component tolerances with fewer trial cuts.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TH10 grade uncoated carbide insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials and applications where a sharp cutting edge and clean surface finish are priorities; it performs well in aluminium and similar alloys.

How does the 80° rhombic geometry affect turning operations?
An 80° rhombic geometry provides a robust cutting edge for general turning while allowing access for external and internal profiles, offering a compromise between strength and manoeuvrability.

Is the insert reversible or single‑use?
The double‑sided design allows reversal once one edge is worn, extending the service life before disposal or reconditioning of the plate.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on the holder’s seat form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and plate thickness; holders specified for ISO CNGG inserts with matching dimensions are suitable.
