DNGN150716 LX11 – Tungaloy turning insert (rhombic, 1.6 mm corner radius)

DNGN150716 LX11 is an ISO rhombic carbide turning insert designed for external and internal turning applications, combining a balanced cutting grade with a robust geometry.

• High wear resistance LX11 grade
• 1.6 mm corner radius for improved edge strength
• ISO DNGN geometry for straightforward holder fit
• Carbide substrate for extended tool life

Consistent cutting performance through a balanced grade

The DNGN150716 LX11 insert pairs a carbide substrate with the LX11 grade to offer a carefully weighted combination of wear resistance and toughness. This balance reduces unplanned tool changes and supports steady component quality in continuous production. The grade is chosen to enhance edge stability, resulting in fewer micro‑chipping events and a more consistent surface finish when compared with softer alternatives. For production planners, this translates into predictable tool life and reduced variance in cycle times.

Geometry engineered for secure clamping and accurate results

The rhombic shape with an included angle of 55° and ISO designation ensures compatibility with standard DNGN toolholders; the 0° rake supports neutral cutting action where stability is critical. The insert dimensions—15 mm nominal size with a thickness of 7.94 mm—combine with the tolerance class and fixation type to determine fit; check holder form, clearance angle and screw type to guarantee secure clamping. This geometry is particularly effective where precise axial positioning and repeatable tool projection are essential for tight tolerances.

Robust cutting edge and adaptable chip strategy

A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength and improves resistance to intermittent cutting forces, making the insert suitable for medium‑depth finishing and robust roughing passes where edge integrity matters. The current specification includes no integrally formed chipbreaker, so chip control should be matched to the workpiece material and cutting conditions via holder design or by selecting a compatible chipbreaker variant. Proper selection reduces built‑up edge formation and helps maintain consistent dimensional accuracy.

Practical system considerations and production benefits

The insert is supplied as an element of an ISO insert system comprising the plate, a matching external holder or boring bar, a clamping pad or set and spare fastening screws. This system approach simplifies inventory and replacement procedures on the shop floor. The combination of carbide construction and the LX11 grade supports productive machining by extending intervals between indexings and reducing downtime for insert changes, which contributes to improved overall equipment effectiveness in turning operations.

FAQ

What applications suit this insert best?
This insert is intended for external and internal turning; the combination of LX11 grade and carbide substrate makes it suitable for medium‑duty finishing and stable roughing where edge life and dimensional consistency are required.

How does the 1.6 mm corner radius affect performance?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases the cutting edge strength, improving resistance to edge chipping and supporting a better surface finish under varying cutting loads.

Is a chipbreaker included with the insert?
The insert is supplied without an integrated chipbreaker; chip control must be achieved via holder selection or by choosing an alternate insert geometry that includes a chipbreaker matched to the workpiece material.

Which holders are compatible with this geometry?
Compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixation method, size and thickness; match the ISO DNGN geometry and the insert thickness to the recommended external holder or boring bar for secure clamping.

What information is useful when ordering replacements?
Provide the item name DNGN150716 LX11, the manufacturer SKU TUN6803230 and the article number 6803230 to ensure correct replacement and avoid mismatches.
