TNGG 160402 TH10 ISO turning insert for turning applications — Tungaloy

TNGG160402 TH10 is a triangular ISO turning insert designed for external and internal turning, offering a 60° geometry for versatile contouring and finishing.

• Triangular ISO insert, 60° included angle
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for clean surfaces
• 0.2 mm nose radius for precise contours
• Double-sided chipbreaker with centred hole

Consistent performance for ISO turning systems

The TNGG160402 TH10 insert is manufactured to ISO form and tolerance standards, ensuring predictable interchangeability within an indexable turning system. Compatibility with a holder depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; this standardisation simplifies tool management in serial production and reduces setup time. The triangular format with a 60° included angle supports both external profiles and internal work when combined with the correct holder, yielding repeatable results across batches.

Low cutting force and improved surface quality for non‑ferrous work

The uncoated carbide grade TH10 is developed for operations where a sharp, uncoated cutting edge lowers cutting forces and promotes clean surfaces. This makes the insert particularly suitable for aluminium alloys, brass and other non‑ferrous materials where adhesion or built‑up edge can impair finish. Reduced cutting resistance often translates into shorter cycle times and less spindle load, delivering a clear rational benefit for production environments focused on throughput and consistent part quality.

Rigidity, chip control and secure clamping for predictable results

Key geometry and mechanical features—0.2 mm nose radius, 4.76 mm thickness and a double‑sided chipbreaker—support dimensional stability and controlled chip formation. The insert’s centred cylindrical hole provides secure clamping in compatible ISO holders and helps maintain repeatable position and cutting edge alignment. Together, these attributes reduce vibration and tool deflection, improving surface finish and extending usable edge life; the double‑sided design furthermore offers multiple indexed edges for economical use.

FAQ

What materials is this insert designed for?
The TNGG160402 TH10 insert and its TH10 carbide grade are optimised for non‑ferrous materials such as aluminium and brass, and for applications where a sharp, uncoated edge improves surface finish.

Can the insert be used for finishing passes?
Yes. The 0.2 mm nose radius and the insert’s stable geometry make it suitable for finishing and light profiling operations when combined with the appropriate holder and cutting parameters.

How is the insert clamped in the holder?
The insert features a centred cylindrical hole for mechanical fastening; compatibility is ensured by matching the insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness to the chosen ISO holder.

Does the design improve tooling economy?
The double‑sided chipbreaker and indexable triangular format provide multiple usable edges, allowing economical edge changes and lower per‑part tooling costs when used as part of a complete insert and holder system.
