CNMA 120416 TH10 – CNMA indexable insert for Turning by Tungaloy

A CNMA 120416 TH10 indexable turning insert engineered for external and internal turning, optimised for non‑ferrous materials and finishing operations.

• ISO-standard CNMA insert, compatible with ISO holders
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for low cutting forces
• Rhombic geometry with 80° included angle
• Cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Consistent clamping and machine compatibility for efficient setup

The rhombic geometry with an 80° included angle and a cylindrical hole ensures reliable seating in standard ISO toolholders, reducing setup time and variation between operations. Compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle and size; the insert’s ISO designation supports straightforward integration into common turning systems. This results in fewer interruptions during changeovers and a stable tool–workpiece interface, which is particularly valuable in batch production and mixed‑model machining.

Optimised cutting behaviour for non‑ferrous turning and light finishing

The uncoated carbide grade TH10 is designed for applications where a sharp, uncoated cutting edge promotes low cutting forces and clean surface finishes. In practice, this reduces burr formation and minimises tool‑induced heat in aluminium and other non‑ferrous alloys, improving dimensional control and surface quality. The modest 1.6 mm corner radius supports light finishing passes without sacrificing edge strength, enabling efficient transitions from roughing to finishing with the same insert type.

System thinking: how the insert contributes to productive machining

This insert functions as part of a system: an ISO indexable plate, a suitable external holder or boring bar, clamping seat and fastening hardware. The standardised dimensions and tolerance classes simplify spare‑part management and tool inventory. Because the grade is uncoated, grinding or edge preparation options prior to use can be employed to tailor cutting edges for specific job requirements, helping to align the insert’s performance with process stability goals and cycle‑time targets.

Practical advantages for workshop workflows and process reliability

Choosing an ISO‑standard indexable insert in a universal, sharp grade reduces the need for multiple specialised inserts when working across a variety of non‑ferrous components. The absence of a dedicated chipbreaker makes the insert appropriate where free‑flowing chips are acceptable or where external chip control systems govern evacuation. Overall, the design supports predictable wear behaviour and consistent part quality, contributing to fewer rejects and more repeatable production output.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The CNMA 120416 TH10 insert is formulated for non‑ferrous materials and applications where a sharp, uncoated edge supports low cutting forces and clean finishes.

Can the insert be used for both external and internal turning?
Yes, the rhombic CNMA geometry and cylindrical hole make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning when matched with the appropriate holder.

Does the TH10 grade include a coating?
No, TH10 is an uncoated carbide grade; the lack of coating helps to maintain a sharp cutting edge and reduce cutting forces in the intended materials.

How does the 1.6 mm corner radius affect the finish?
A 1.6 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the ability to produce smooth finishes during light finishing passes, reducing risk of edge chipping under appropriate cutting conditions.

Is a chipbreaker fitted to this insert?
This variant is supplied without a chipbreaker, which is suitable where free‑flowing chips are acceptable or chip control is handled externally.
