TCGT080202 TH10 Tungaloy — ISO triangular turning insert, uncoated carbide, 60° included angle

The TCGT080202 TH10 Tungaloy is an ISO-standard triangular indexable insert designed for external and internal turning applications, offering low cutting forces and clean surface generation.

• ISO triangular turning insert TCGT080202
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishing
• 2.38 mm plate thickness for stability
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Consistent cutting performance and lower machining effort

The combination of a sharp uncoated carbide grade and a triangular geometry yields low cutting forces, which reduces spindle load and can extend tool life across batches. The TH10 grade is a universal, uncoated carbide chosen specifically for applications where a clean cutting edge and reduced cutting effort are priorities, notably in non-ferrous materials. The 0.2 mm corner radius helps to balance edge strength with the ability to achieve a fine surface finish, while the 60° included angle provides predictable chip formation for general turning tasks.

Fast integration into existing tool systems and secure clamping

Manufactured to ISO dimensions, the insert integrates into standard holders and boring bars without lengthy adaptations; compatibility is determined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and thickness. The plate’s 2.38 mm thickness and triangular layout contribute to stable clamping and repeatable positioning, reducing setup time and variation between regrinds. The central cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°) simplifies locating and fastening in commonly used clamping systems, supporting efficient index changes and inventory handling.

Material range and surface quality benefits

This insert excels in turning non-ferrous metals where minimal surface smear and low built-up edge are required; the TH10 grade supports machining of aluminium alloys, copper and related materials with improved finish quality. The single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip flow for a narrow range of feed rates, aiding chip evacuation and preventing tangling in automatic production environments. For customers seeking reliable finishing performance with straightforward grade selection, the Tungaloy insert offers a pragmatic balance between edge sharpness and in-process robustness.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert best suited for? The TCGT080202 TH10 Tungaloy insert is primarily recommended for non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and copper alloys, where the uncoated grade supports low cutting forces and clean surfaces.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect finishing? A 0.2 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and the ability to achieve smooth surface finishes; with the TH10 grade this supports consistent finishing without excessive burr formation.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders? Yes — the insert follows ISO dimensions, so compatibility with common external holders and boring bars is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and plate thickness.

What is the purpose of the single-sided chipbreaker? The single-sided chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation for selected feeds, improving process stability and reducing the risk of chip interference.

Can this insert be used for internal turning as well as external turning? Yes. The geometry and ISO sizing of the TCGT080202 TH10 make it suitable for both external and internal turning operations when matched with the appropriate holder and process parameters.
