RCMM 1204M0 TH10 indexable insert for turning — Tungaloy

The RCMM 1204M0 TH10 indexable insert is an ISO-formatted, round turning insert engineered for external and internal turning where low cutting forces and clean surfaces are required.

ISO-series round indexable insert, 12 mm diameter
Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for low cutting forces
7° clearance angle with cylindrical-hole mounting
4.76 mm plate thickness, 0 mm corner radius

Increased machining efficiency through low cutting forces

The combination of an uncoated carbide cutting edge and the TH10 grade delivers reduced cutting resistance and consistent chip formation when machining non-ferrous materials and similar alloys. This results in lower power draw, reduced workpiece distortion and improved surface quality, which together contribute to shorter cycle times and more predictable output. The insert’s geometry and the integrated 61 chipbreaker support stable chip flow, so setup time is minimised and throughput becomes more reliable.

Simple integration and dependable fixture compatibility

Designed according to ISO conventions, the ISO-series geometry ensures straightforward interchangeability with matching holders and boring bars. The round form with a cylindrical hole and a 7° clearance angle allows secure clamping while accommodating a range of holder designs; the 12 mm diameter and 4.76 mm thickness provide robust seating and repeatable positioning. By following the specified form, tolerance class and fixing method, the insert integrates into existing tool systems without additional modification, reducing changeover effort and improving process stability.

Versatile use for finishing and light- to medium-duty turning

This insert excels in both external and internal turning where low cutting forces and clean finishes are priorities. The uncoated, sharp edge of the TH10 grade supports fine surface finishes on softer metals and non-ferrous alloys, while the round shape and zero corner radius enable safe approaches in interrupted cuts and bores. For best results, choose a matching chipbreaker and grade according to component material and machine rigidity; correct selection helps extend insert life and maintain consistent surface integrity during production runs. The RCMM1204M0-61 is particularly suitable when reduced cutting loads and high-quality surfaces are required.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The RCMM 1204M0-61 TH10 Tungaloy indexable insert is formulated for non-ferrous materials and applications where an uncoated cutting edge delivers low cutting forces and clean surfaces.

How is the insert mounted in a holder?
Mounting relies on the ISO-compatible form and the cylindrical hole; the insert seats against the holder or shim and is secured with the appropriate clamp and fixing screw to ensure repeatable positioning.

Can this insert be used for internal turning in bores?
Yes, the round form and zero corner radius make the insert well suited to internal turning and interrupted cuts where approach geometry must be forgiving.

What is the main advantage of the TH10 grade?
TH10 is an uncoated, sharp universal grade that reduces cutting forces and supports clean surface finishes, especially on softer metals and non-ferrous workpieces.

Which parameters should be adjusted for best tool life?
Optimise feed, depth of cut and matching chipbreaker to the workpiece material and machine rigidity; the insert’s geometry and TH10 grade are designed to perform best with reduced cutting loads and controlled chip evacuation.
