TNGG 160402 X407 Tungaloy indexable insert — triangular ISO turning insert, 60°

The TNGG160402 X407 is a triangular ISO indexable turning insert designed for both external and internal turning, offering a balanced mix of wear resistance and toughness for general turning operations.

• Triangular insert, 60° included angle
• Carbide grade X407 for balanced wear
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine profiling
• Double-sided chipbreaker, with cylindrical hole

Precision and consistent cutting performance for productive turning

The ISO-designated triangular insert is engineered to deliver repeatable results in standard turning tasks. The combination of a 60° included angle and a 0.2 mm corner radius provides a stable cutting edge for fine profiling and contour work, while the X407 carbide grade balances hardness and toughness to extend edge life under varying cutting conditions. Using an indexable insert with these properties reduces interruptions for tool changes and supports continuous production, translating into measurable productivity gains and predictable cycle times.

Secure seating and compatibility reduce set-up time

Compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the insert’s cylindrical hole and 4.76 mm thickness ensure reliable clamping and mechanical stability in the seat. The specified free clearance angle (0°) refers to the relief behind the cutting edge and affects contact with the workpiece; correct matching avoids rubbing and minimises vibration. This mechanical clarity makes it easier to select a suitable external holder or boring bar and helps achieve improved surface finish and reduced tool chatter during turning.

Chip control and material versatility for safer production

A double-sided chipbreaker gives flexibility: the insert can be indexed to present a fresh edge and allows chip formation suited to a range of cutting depths and feeds. The X407 grade complements the geometry by prioritising a balance of wear resistance and edge stability, making the insert suitable for a wide variety of steels and common shop materials encountered in turning. Selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and cutting parameters helps maintain process security and repeatability, delivering consistent component tolerances and fewer rejects.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TNGG160402 X407 insert is specified for general turning and, with its X407 carbide grade, offers a balanced performance for a broad range of steels and common workshop materials.

Can the insert be used on both external and internal operations?
Yes, the TNGG160402 X407 indexable insert is designed for both external and internal turning when paired with the appropriate holder or boring bar.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker affect machining?
The double-sided chipbreaker on this insert supports reliable chip control over repeated indexings, enabling consistent chips and safer evacuation in many turning scenarios.

What does the 0.2 mm corner radius mean for part finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge strength and fine contouring, helping to achieve smoother surface finishes without excessively increasing cutting forces.

How is the insert clamped in the holder?
Clamping relies on the insert’s form, the cylindrical hole and adherence to ISO seat geometry; correct matching of holder dimensions and tolerance class ensures stable fixation.
