SNMG120408 TH10 — 90° square turning insert, uncoated carbide, Tungaloy

The SNMG120408 TH10 is an ISO‑standard square turning insert for external and internal turning, intended for non‑ferrous materials and applications where an uncoated edge delivers lower cutting forces and improved surface quality.

• ISO‑standard SNMG geometry
• TH10 uncoated carbide grade
• 0.8 mm nose radius for fine finishes
• Double‑sided chipbreaker, with hole
• 90° square shape for versatile turning

Consistent clamping and repeatable indexability for productive setups

The ISO‑standard geometry ensures predictable seating and indexing in compatible holders. Compatibility is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, which reduces set‑up time and increases repeatability. Indexable designs permit multiple edge changes without reclamping, improving process stability and lowering downtime when multiple inserts are required.

Sharp uncoated grade for low cutting forces and clean surfaces

The TH10 grade is an uncoated carbide developed for sharpness and controlled cutting when machining non‑ferrous alloys. The uncoated edge reduces built‑up edge tendency and supports lower cutting forces, which helps to preserve thin‑walled parts and delicate features. The integrated double‑sided chipbreaker supports consistent chip control, especially during finishing passes where surface quality is critical.

Geometry tailored to finishing and flexible turning operations

A 0.8 mm nose radius combined with a 90° included angle gives a balance between edge strength and fine surface results. The square form provides multiple indexable edges per insert, extending usable life under stable cutting conditions. The insert’s cylindrical hole and a thickness of 4.76 mm ensure secure clamping and correct seat height in matching external holders or boring bars, reducing vibration and improving surface integrity on final passes.

Practical selection and integration guidance for production use

Select the chipbreaker and grade according to workpiece material and machine‑part rigidity; the uncoated grade performs best on non‑ferrous alloys and applications requiring low cutting forces. When integrating the insert, verify holder compatibility by matching the SNMG form, tolerance class and fastening method. For tailored recommendations on holder selection and process parameters, consult documented holder specifications or engineering support to optimise cycle time and component quality.
