EPGT 040102 TH10 indexable turning insert — Tungaloy, uncoated carbide, 75° rhombic

EPGT 040102 TH10 is an ISO-standard indexable insert designed for general turning, offering a sharp uncoated cutting edge for low cutting forces and clean surface results

• ISO 040102 standard format
• Uncoated carbide TH10 grade
• 75° rhombic geometry for versatile turning
• Single-sided chipbreaker for controlled chips

Consistent compatibility for predictable clamping and repeatability

The ISO-format geometry and defined dimensions ensure repeatable seating and simple integration into standard holders. The combination of ISO 040102 designation, rhombic 04 size and the specified relief angle means compatibility is governed by form, relief geometry, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness — factors that facilitate fast, reliable changeovers on the shop floor. This predictable interface reduces setup time and supports a steady production flow with fewer interruptions.

Low cutting forces and a clean finish for non-ferrous applications

Manufactured from uncoated carbide in the TH10 grade, the insert provides a sharp cutting edge that lowers cutting forces and helps produce cleaner surface finishes, especially when machining non-ferrous materials. The single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation, which in turn reduces the risk of built-up edge and surface damage. For operations where minimal cutting force and tidy part appearance are priorities, this geometry and grade offer a practical advantage.

Compact dimensions that balance rigidity and access

With a thickness of 1.59 mm, a corner radius of 0.2 mm and a free angle of 11°, the insert is optimised for applications demanding a fine edge and good access in tight profiles. The cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure fastening in compatible clamping sets, while the 75° approach angle of the rhombic shape supports both external and internal turning tasks. These dimensional choices balance edge strength and the ability to achieve fine surface finishes.

Practical application guidance for workshop use

Intended primarily for turning, the insert is most effective when matched with a suitable external holder or boring bar and an appropriate clamp kit. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and TH10 grade will depend on material and machining stability; the combination here is engineered to suit non-ferrous components and finishing passes where a sharp edge and low forces are beneficial. If process stability or tool life optimisation is required, pairing this insert with a rigid toolholder and controlled cutting parameters will yield the best results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The EPGT 040102 TH10 insert is optimised for non-ferrous materials and operations where an uncoated, sharp cutting edge reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish.

Is the cutting edge coated? No, the insert is an uncoated carbide grade (TH10), designed to offer a very sharp edge for low-force cutting and clean results.

How is the insert secured in the holder? The insert features a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°), allowing secure clamping in compatible holders and clamping sets designed for ISO 040102 geometry.

Which turning operations are appropriate for this insert? The design suits both external and internal turning, particularly finishing passes or machining of softer, non-ferrous alloys where reduced cutting force and controlled chip form are desired.
