SPGN 120304 LX11 SPGN indexable turning insert (SPGN120304-DIA) — Tungaloy

The SPGN120304-DIA LX11 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑standard square indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a DIA chipbreaker and a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge stability.

• ISO square insert for turning
• LX11 grade for wear resistance
• DIA chipbreaker for controlled chips
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine finishes

Consistent cutting performance for repetitive turning

The insert provides a reliable, repeatable cutting geometry built around the ISO designation and a 90° included angle, which supports stable turning cycles and straightforward toolset standardisation. Its carbide substrate ensures hardness and thermal resistance during interrupted and continuous cuts, while the DIA chipbreaker promotes manageable chip formation. These technical elements reduce process variability and increase first‑pass yield, improving throughput in batch machining and serial production.

Grade and edge stability that reduce downtime

The LX11 grade, developed by Tungaloy, combines wear resistance with sufficient toughness to maintain edge integrity under typical turning loads. This balance helps to extend tool life and minimise index changes. The moderately sharp 0.4 mm corner radius aids in achieving fine profile details and improved surface finish without sacrificing robustness. Together, the grade and geometry support longer intervals between tool changes and lower total cost of ownership in repetitive turning operations.

System compatibility and straightforward integration

Designed as an ISO indexable insert, the component fits holders according to form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment style, size and thickness. The 11° clearance and 3.18 mm plate thickness are standard parameters for matching carriers and clamping sets, simplifying tool assembly and inventory management. The square shape facilitates multiple indexing positions, and the absence of a clamping hole means compatibility with pocket designs that rely on edge clamping or top clamps.

Practical selection guidance for machining applications

Select the DIA chipbreaker and LX11 grade when controlled chip flow and sustained edge life are priorities for steel and common alloy turning tasks. The insert suits both external and internal turning; where finer surface quality is required, the 0.4 mm radius helps meet tighter finish targets. For heavily interrupted cuts or highly abrasive materials, verify holder rigidity and cutting parameters to match the insert’s carbide characteristics and ensure stable engagement.

FAQ

What machining tasks suit this insert best?
The SPGN120304-DIA LX11 insert is intended for external and internal turning; its LX11 grade and DIA chipbreaker make it suitable for general turning where controlled chips and durable cutting edges are required.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO toolholders?
Yes, the SPGN120304-DIA follows ISO specifications and is compatible with holders matched by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment and size; ensure the carrier accepts a 12 mm square insert with 3.18 mm thickness.

How many corners are available for indexing on the square insert?
As a square indexable insert, the component provides multiple usable corners; indexing frequency depends on wear and machining conditions rather than the insert geometry alone.

Which edge radius should be used for fine surface finishes?
The 0.4 mm corner radius on this insert supports finer surface finishes while maintaining edge stability; for extremely fine finishes, complement the radius choice with appropriate cutting parameters and rigidity.

Does the insert require a clamping hole?
This item is specified as having no hole; it is designed for pockets and clamping systems that secure the insert by its edges or with top clamps.
