TNGG160404 TH10 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular 16 mm, 60°

A TNGG160404 TH10 Tungaloy ISO triangular turning insert designed for external and internal turning, optimised for non‑ferrous materials and low‑force machining.

• ISO‑standard triangular insert
• Sharp universal uncoated grade TH10
• Double‑sided chipbreaker for flexibility
• 60° geometry, 0.4 mm corner radius

Consistent fit and system integration for indexed turning

The insert is manufactured to ISO‑compliant dimensions so that compatibility with holders is determined by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. This ensures predictable assembly in an indexable tooling system and reliable repeatability during index changes. The cylindrical hole and standardised geometry simplify retrofitting into existing toolholders and minimise setup time, supporting steady production throughput.

Clean cutting and surface quality on non‑ferrous alloys

The uncoated cemented carbide composition and the TH10 grade deliver a sharp cutting edge that reduces cutting forces and promotes smooth chip flow when machining aluminium, copper alloys and other non‑ferrous materials. The double‑sided chipbreaker aids controlled chip formation and prevents entanglement, which lowers the risk of built‑up edge and contributes directly to improved surface finish and reduced rework. For applications prioritising low cutting forces and fine finishes, this insert is a practical choice.

Operational benefits: handling, indexing and tool life

A 16 mm inscribed circle and 4.76 mm thickness provide mechanical stability during interrupted cuts, while the 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength and micro‑finish capability. The triangular shape with a 60° included angle offers three usable corners per index, increasing economy per insert. The combination of a sharp, uncoated grade with a standardised format makes spare part management straightforward and supports predictable replacement intervals in serial production.

Recommended applications and setup guidance

Designed primarily for turning, the insert excels in both external and internal operations where low cutting forces and clean surfaces are required. Select an appropriate holder and match the chipbreaker and grade to material, cutting mode and machine stability. When machining softer non‑ferrous alloys, moderate feed rates and appropriate coolant strategy will further extend performance and sustainable productivity.
