SNGA 120408 FX105 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning — square 12 mm, 0° relief

The SNGA120408 FX105 is an ISO-standard square indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, combining a Tungaloy carbide grade with a geometry tuned for stable cutting and long tool life.

• ISO turning insert SNGA120408 FX105
• Carbide grade for enhanced wear resistance
• Square 12 mm, 0° relief angle
• 0.8 mm corner radius for precise profiling

Predictable mounting and process reliability

The ISO designation ensures straightforward selection and repeatable clamping: compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, which reduces setup variability. As an ISO-format insert, this plate delivers a consistent interface with matched holders and adaptors, supporting repeatable machining and minimising the need for trial adjustments. This stability translates into fewer scrapped parts and more reliable cycle times in production.

Balanced material grade for mixed turning tasks

The FX105 grade is a Tungaloy carbide formulation that balances wear resistance and toughness, making the insert suitable for a wide range of turning operations. The substrate hardness and microstructure are selected to maintain a stable cutting edge under intermittent or continuous cuts, so the indexable plate resists abrasive wear while retaining edge stability. This balance helps extend insert life and supports consistent surface finishes in batch production.

Geometry that supports accuracy and edge life

A square 12 mm platform with a 0.8 mm corner radius and a 0° relief angle gives a combination of profile accuracy and robust cutting behaviour. The square shape and 90° included angle support versatile turning profiles and enable orientation options for even wear distribution. The cylindrical hole and 4.76 mm plate thickness ensure secure clamping in standard ISO holders, so the cutting edge remains stable during heavier engagement and when profile accuracy is required.

Application scope and practical machining advice

Intended primarily for turning operations, the insert is supplied without a chipbreaker; selecting a matching holder and an appropriate chip control geometry is therefore important for efficient swarf management. The Tungaloy grade performs well across common engineering materials when paired with correct cutting data and stable fixturing. For special alloys or thin-walled workpieces, combining the insert’s toughness with reduced depths of cut and optimised feeds will improve finish and tool life.

FAQ

Which materials are suitable for this insert?
The SNGA120408 FX105 insert is a carbide-based grade optimised for general turning tasks; the FX105 formulation offers a broad workpiece coverage when correct feeds and speeds are applied.

Is the insert supplied with a chipbreaker?
The SNGA120408 FX105 indexable insert is provided without a chipbreaker, so chip control depends on holder choice and the cutting geometry selected for the operation.

What holder features are required for correct mounting?
Compatibility is determined by the insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; use an ISO-compatible square turning holder that matches SNGA120408 dimensions.

How does the FX105 grade perform under interrupted cuts?
The FX105 grade balances toughness and wear resistance, providing improved edge stability for intermittent cuts compared with more wear-focused grades.

Can the insert be used for finishing and roughing?
With a 0.8 mm corner radius and 0° relief, the SNGA120408 FX105 performs best in general turning and profile work; for heavy roughing consider larger radii or grades specifically tuned for high-metal-removal rates.
