DCGT 11T304 TH10 ISO rhombic turning insert for turning — Tungaloy

The DCGT 11T304 TH10 is an ISO-standard rhombic indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, providing a 55° cutting angle and an uncoated edge optimised for low cutting forces.

• ISO-standard rhombic geometry 55°
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for clean cuts
• 0.4 mm corner radius for versatile finishing
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Improved productivity through geometry and grade

The combination of rhombic geometry and a 55° cutting angle delivers a versatile balance between strength and accessibility for a wide range of turning tasks. Manufactured in carbide and supplied in the universal TH10 grade, the insert offers an uncoated cutting edge that reduces built-up edge when machining non-ferrous materials, resulting in cleaner surface finishes and lower cutting forces. This makes the component suitable for precision finishing and light roughing where edge integrity and surface quality are priorities.

Designed for secure clamping and ISO interchangeability

Compatibility with toolholders depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the ISO designation ensures straightforward replacement within standard holder systems. The insert features a cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink (40°–60°) and a plate thickness of 3.97 mm, allowing stable clamping when used with the correct shim and clamp set. For consistent performance, select a holder that matches the insert's tolerance class and secure the fixing screws to the manufacturer’s recommended torque to avoid movement during heavy cuts.

Tailored for non-ferrous machining and fine surfaces

The TH10 grade is a sharp, universal uncoated carbide variety developed for non-ferrous alloys and situations where an uncoated edge helps to achieve low cutting forces and polished surfaces. Typical applications include aluminium and brass components where chip control and minimal built-up edge are important. The single-sided chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation for these materials, supporting both productivity and part quality when the correct feed and speed settings are applied.

Practical benefits for workshop logistics and process stability

Using ISO-standard turning inserts simplifies inventory management and speeds up tool changes on the shop floor. The 0.4 mm corner radius provides a good compromise between strength and finish capability, reducing the need for frequent insert changes while delivering consistent part geometry. Where process stability and repeatability are required, the combination of an ISO-form insert, a defined free angle of 7° and the TH10 grade helps to maintain predictable results across batches. Our technical advisors can help specify the best chipbreaker and grade variant for the selected workpiece material and machining strategy.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited to machine? The DCGT 11T304 TH10 insert is optimised for non-ferrous materials and applications where an uncoated TH10 carbide edge supports low cutting forces and a clean surface finish.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect the finish? A 0.4 mm corner radius provides a balance between edge strength and surface quality; it helps to reduce edge chipping while still delivering a fine finish on turned parts when feeds and speeds are selected appropriately for the TH10 grade.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders? Yes, the insert follows ISO dimensions; compatibility is defined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness, so use a holder that matches these parameters for secure clamping.

What chip control does the single-sided chipbreaker provide? The single-sided chipbreaker on this insert promotes predictable chip formation for non-ferrous cutting, supporting consistent evacuation and reducing the risk of entanglement during turning.

Can this insert be used for both external and internal turning? This rhombic ISO insert is suitable for both external and internal turning operations when paired with an appropriate external holder or boring bar and correct clamping components.
