TNGG160404 GH110 triangular indexable turning insert by Tungaloy — ISO 160404, 60°

The TNGG160404 GH110 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable insert designed for general external and internal turning applications; it delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance, edge stability and repeatable geometry for productive metal‑cutting operations.

• Triangular form, ISO 160404 compatible
• GH110 grade for durable edge life
• Double‑sided chipbreaker for versatile cutting
• 0.4 mm nose radius for fine finishing
• Cylindrical hole and 4.76 mm thickness

Consistent edge life for productive turning

The insert’s GH110 carbide grade combines controlled hardness with sufficient toughness, offering reliable wear resistance and a stable cutting edge under typical turning conditions. This balance reduces unscheduled tool changes and supports steady cycle times, which benefits batch production and continuous machining operations. The ISO geometry ensures interchangeability with holders conforming to the ISO 160404 system, while the triangular form provides three effective cutting edges per index, enhancing cost efficiency per edge. Where surface finish and repeatability are priorities, the fine 0.4 mm nose radius supports accurate profile generation and predictable toolpath results.

Flexible performance through geometry and chip control

A double‑sided chipbreaker and the insert’s defined relief angle of 0° allow adaptable chip formation across a range of feeds and depths of cut; selecting the appropriate chipbreaker and grade helps match the insert to the workpiece material and machining strategy. The insert is provided with a cylindrical hole, facilitating secure clamping and correct seat location in compatible clamping sets and underplates. Because holder compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness, pairing the insert with the correct external holder or boring bar is essential for optimal cutting force distribution and vibration suppression.

Practical assembly, handling and application guidance

With a 4.76 mm plate thickness and standard ISO sizing, the insert fits established toolholder systems used in turning centres and lathes. The triangular shape and double‑sided layout increase usable edges, while the centred hole allows straightforward fastening with replacement screws and clamping sets. For efficient implementation in production, assess fixture stability and select a chipbreaker that complements the chosen feed rates and material behaviour; this approach secures the intended balance between surface quality and tool life. The insert’s carbide construction provides dimensional stability during repeated indexing, supporting consistent tolerances over multiple cycles.

FAQ

What machining operations suit this insert best?
This triangular indexable insert is intended for external and internal turning; the TNGG160404 GH110 performs well where a combination of edge stability and consistent wear resistance is required.

How many cutting edges are available per insert?
The triangular form provides three usable edges; when indexed correctly, the TNGG160404 GH110 yields three fresh cutting corners before replacement is necessary.

Which holders fit this insert?
Holders compatible with the ISO 160404 geometry and the insert’s 16 mm size will accept the part; correct seating depends on form, relief angle and tolerance class, so select an ISO‑compliant external holder or boring bar.

What role does the GH110 grade play in performance?
The GH110 carbide grade offers a tailored balance of wear resistance and toughness, supporting longer edge life and repeatable performance in turning operations.

Is the insert available with a different chipbreaker?
This SKU features a double‑sided chipbreaker; alternative chipbreaker styles or grades are available within the ISO series to match material and cutting parameter needs.
