TNGG 160404 TH10 Tungaloy turning insert — ISO 160404 triangular, 0.4 mm radius

A TNGG160404 TH10 indexable insert for turning, designed for ISO-compliant external and internal machining and optimised for non-ferrous materials.

• ISO triangular insert TNGG160404 TH10
• Uncoated carbide for low cutting forces
• 0.4 mm nose radius for fine profiles
• Double-sided chipbreaker with cylindrical hole

Reliable finishing for non-ferrous turning

Designed for predictable performance in light-alloy and non-ferrous turning, the insert combines a sharp universal grade with a fine geometry to support accurate finishes. The TH10 grade is an uncoated carbide formulated for applications in which a bare cutting edge reduces cutting forces and minimises built-up edge, leading to cleaner surfaces. The small 0.4 mm nose radius enables precise profiling and dimensional repeatability, which is particularly beneficial for fine-detail work and parts where surface integrity is critical.

Quick integration and efficient indexing to save set-up time

Manufactured to ISO dimensions, the insert is straightforward to integrate into standard toolholder systems; compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness. The geometry — 16 mm inscribed circle, 4.76 mm thickness, 60° included angle and 0° clearance — together with the cylindrical hole ensure secure clamping and quick exchange. The double-sided design allows two usable cutting edges per position, reducing tooling cost per edge and simplifying inventory management.

Tailored chip control and consistent part quality

Chip management is achieved through the double-sided chipbreaker, which provides versatility across varying material grades and cutting conditions. The uncoated edge of the TH10 grade favours low cutting resistance and supports a smooth finish on softer materials; where higher stability is available, the geometry promotes efficient material removal and repeatable dimensional results. Select the chipbreaker and grade to match workpiece material, cutting forces and machine rigidity for best outcomes.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TNGG160404 TH10 Tungaloy indexable insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials and light alloys; the uncoated TH10 grade supports low cutting forces and clean surface generation.

How does the ISO designation affect holder compatibility?
ISO conformity means the insert matches holders and boring bars that accept ISO triangular inserts; compatibility is checked by form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness.

Can the insert be indexed to use multiple cutting edges?
Yes — the triangular shape with a double‑sided chipbreaker and the central cylindrical hole allow reliable clamping and rotation to a fresh edge, extending usable life.

What finish can be expected with a 0.4 mm nose radius?
A 0.4 mm nose radius is suited to fine profiling and finishing operations, offering a balance between edge strength and surface quality for delicate contours.

Is the TH10 grade coated or uncoated, and what does that mean for use?
The TH10 grade is uncoated carbide, which favours operations where lower cutting forces and reduced adhesion are needed for clean finishes, especially on softer and non‑ferrous materials.
