DCGT 11T300 TH10 ISO turning indexable insert, Tungaloy

DCGT11T300 TH10 is an ISO‑compliant turning insert intended for external and internal turning of non‑ferrous materials and general‑purpose lathe work

• Sharp uncoated carbide grade TH10
• ISO DCGT 11T300 rhombic 11 size
• 7° relief angle for low cutting forces
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Lower cutting forces and improved surface finish

The use of uncoated carbide in the TH10 grade provides a reliably sharp cutting edge that reduces feed resistance and friction, which in turn leads to low cutting forces and a clean surface finish on non‑ferrous components. Uncoated grades are particularly effective where minimal built‑up edge formation is required; the absence of a coating keeps the cutting edge keen and helps maintain dimensional accuracy on delicate workpieces. For production environments where surface integrity and minimal secondary finishing are priorities, this behaviour directly reduces rework and cycle time.

Reliable fit and secure clamping for stable turning

Manufactured to ISO geometry, the DCGT 11T300 form combines a rhombic profile with a securely located hole and a single‑side countersink to ensure consistent seating in the holder. The 7° relief angle and a 55° included angle contribute to predictable engagement and reduced radial cutting load. Compatibility with a holder depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness, so selecting the correct carrier or boring bar is essential. The cylindrical hole with a 40°–60° countersink provides firm clamping and repeatable positional accuracy, supporting high process stability even on long overhangs when the rest of the setup is optimised.

Better chip control with a single‑sided chipbreaker

A single‑sided chipbreaker is integrated to aid chip formation and evacuation when machining softer, ductile materials. For non‑ferrous turning, this chip geometry encourages short, manageable chips that are less likely to wrap or interfere with the workpiece, improving operator safety and reducing interruptions. Choosing the appropriate chipformer and grade relative to the material and machining parameters enhances productivity; in less rigid setups the chipformer helps mitigate vibration‑induced poor surface quality and tool wear.

Easy system integration and workshop efficiency

The insert forms part of a modular system comprising the indexable insert, matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws. The standardised ISO designation simplifies inventory management by ensuring interchangeability across compliant holders, while the clear geometry and robust hole design make assembly and index changes straightforward. For job shops and production lines aiming for predictable throughput, the combination of grade, geometry and secure fastening reduces downtime for tool changes and supports consistent component quality.

FAQ

Which materials are suitable for this insert?
The DCGT11T300 TH10 insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials; the TH10 uncoated carbide grade supports clean cutting on brass, aluminium alloys and similar softer metals.

How is compatibility with a lathe holder ensured?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the ISO rhombic DCGT form and the insert’s hole geometry match ISO‑compliant holders when the corresponding holder specification is used.

What are the main benefits of the TH10 grade?
TH10 is a sharp, universal uncoated carbide grade that reduces cutting forces and helps achieve a good surface finish when machining non‑ferrous components with consistent results.

How does the chipbreaker influence machining?
The single‑sided chipbreaker promotes short chip formation and reliable evacuation during turning, which improves process stability and reduces the risk of chip entanglement.

Is the insert suitable for both external and internal turning?
Yes; the design and geometry make the DCGT11T300 TH10 appropriate for both external and internal turning operations when paired with a suitable holder or boring bar.
