TNGG 160402 TH10 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning

The TNGG160402 TH10 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert designed for turning applications, offering a sharp uncoated cutting edge suited to non‑ferrous materials and operations requiring low cutting forces and clean surface finishes.

• ISO triangular insert, 16 mm size
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10
• Double-sided chipbreaker for versatility
• Cylindrical hole with 0° clearance

Consistent cutting performance for low‑force turning

The triangular ISO geometry combined with uncoated carbide in grade TH10 provides a balance between chip control and low cutting forces, making it appropriate for delicate turning tasks. The 0.2 mm nose radius supports fine surface quality while the double-sided chipbreaker allows economical indexability. This configuration reduces cutting resistance and contributes to stable metal removal in applications where a clean finish is essential. The paragraph explains how the material and geometry translate into predictable machining outcomes for production environments.

Predictable fit and secure clamping for ISO holders

Compatibility with toolholders is governed by insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The triangular shape and cylindrical hole ensure repeatable seating in standard ISO turning holders and boring bars, while the 4.76 mm thickness and 0° clearance angle support robust clamping and radial stability. For workshop planning, the system comprises the insert, a matching external holder or boring bar, a shim/clamp set and replacement screws, ensuring a complete, serviceable tooling solution that integrates with common turning systems.

Application range and economical advantages of the TH10 grade

The TH10 grade was developed as a sharp universal option for non‑ferrous materials and for operations where an uncoated cutting edge reduces cutting forces and improves surface integrity. With double‑sided indexing, each triangular insert maximises usable edges, contributing to lower tooling cost per component. When tighter tolerances or different material families are required, selecting a chipbreaker and grade matched to the workpiece and machining stability will ensure the best balance between tool life and part quality. The description highlights how the insert fits into practical workflows while maintaining efficient production.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TNGG160402 TH10 insert is designed primarily for non‑ferrous materials and for operations where an uncoated edge supports low cutting forces and a clean surface finish.

What does the designation TNGG160402 indicate?
TNGG denotes the triangular insert form; the ISO designation 160402 refers to size and geometry parameters, and the suffix reflects the specific dimensions and corner radius.

Is the insert reversible and how many edges are available?
The insert features a double‑sided chipbreaker and triangular geometry, allowing multiple indexable cutting edges to be used before replacement.

Which holders are compatible with this ISO insert?
Compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the insert is intended for standard ISO turning holders and boring bars that match these parameters.

What are the key dimensional values to check before ordering?
Check the ISO designation 160402, the 16 mm size, 4.76 mm thickness, 0.2 mm nose radius and the 0° relief angle to ensure correct fit and performance.
