DCGT 11T308 TH10 turning insert (ISO 11T308), rhombic 55° — Tungaloy

A DCGT11T308 TH10 insert for ISO‑standard turning applications, engineered as a sharp, uncoated carbide option to support low cutting forces and high‑quality surface results in non‑ferrous work

• ISO‑standard rhombic insert 55°
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10
• Suitable for turning non‑ferrous materials
• Cylindrical hole with single‑sided countersink

Efficient turning with lower cutting forces and better finishes

The insert’s TH10 uncoated carbide grade is designed to reduce cutting resistance, which in practice means lower power draw and less tendency for material build‑up on the cutting edge. The rhombic 55° geometry concentrates cutting action into a controlled point of contact, delivering clean surface finish and consistent chip formation when machining non‑ferrous components. For operations prioritising feed stability and reduced cutting heat, this configuration provides a measurable productivity gain without resorting to coated grades.

Clear ISO compatibility and secure clamping for predictable performance

Compatibility with holders is governed by form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness; the ISO designation ensures the insert fits standard turning tool systems where those parameters match. The cylindrical hole with single‑sided countersink (40°–60°) provides reliable seating and repeatable clamping, helping to maintain tool alignment and reduce vibration. Choosing an ISO‑conforming component simplifies tool management across the shop floor and shortens set‑up times in serial production.

Material scope and application benefits for non‑ferrous turning

This uncoated grade is a sharp universal option particularly well suited to non‑ferrous materials, where a clean, well‑shedding cutting edge improves finish quality and reduces burr formation. The 0.8 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the ability to produce fine profiles; it supports finishing passes while still providing the durability required for longer runs. For customers machining aluminium alloys, brass and similar substrates, the tool design helps achieve repeatable surface integrity with controlled chip flow.

System integration and practical handling on the shop floor

The insert is part of a standard ISO indexable system and works with appropriate external holders, boring bars and clamping kits; understanding this system approach reduces tooling complexity and spare‑part overhead. The 3.97 mm thickness and 11 mm size fit a wide range of common holders, enabling flexible use across turning centres. As an uncoated carbide option, it also allows operators to assess edge behaviour and process windows before moving to specialised coated grades, supporting cost‑effective process development.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DCGT11T308 TH10 insert is intended primarily for non‑ferrous materials and operations where an uncoated carbide edge supports low cutting forces and a clean finish.

How does the 0.8 mm corner radius affect machining?
A 0.8 mm corner radius increases edge strength compared with smaller radii while still allowing fine surface quality; it suits finishing and light‑to‑medium turning duties.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes — the insert follows ISO standards, and compatibility depends on matching holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, clamping method, size and thickness.

What is the hole and screw arrangement for clamping?
The insert features a cylindrical hole with a single‑sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure, repeatable clamping in compatible toolholders.

Can this insert be used for internal turning?
The geometry and grade support both external and internal turning when correct holder selection and clearance are ensured.
