TNGG 160408 TH10 indexable insert for Turning — Tungaloy

The TNGG 160408 TH10 is a triangular indexable insert developed for multidirectional turning in longitudinal, facing and profiling operations within the AddMultiTurn system.

• Multidirectional turning capability
• Sharp TH10 uncoated carbide grade
• Double-sided chipbreaker for clean swarf
• Triangular 16 mm insert with cylindrical hole

Maximise productivity with a single multidirectional solution

The AddMultiTurn series integrates holder, inserts and clamping into a single concept that enables several cutting directions with one tool, reducing changeover time and simplifying tool inventories. The AddMultiTurn design helps maintain stable chip control across longitudinal, facing and profiling passes, so machining cycles become more predictable and downtime is minimised. As an indexable insert, this component supports quick seat replacement and repeatable positioning, promoting consistent part quality across batches.

Low cutting forces and improved surface quality for non-ferrous work

The uncoated TH10 grade is formulated as a sharp universal carbide suitable for non-ferrous materials and situations where a clean finish and reduced cutting force are priorities. The sharp edge geometry, together with the double-sided chipbreaker, reduces built-up edge and helps evacuate swarf reliably, which contributes to improved surface integrity and fewer rework operations. This combination is particularly effective where fine finishes are required without resorting to aggressive coatings that might alter edge behaviour.

Precision geometry for secure clamping and repeatable results

A triangular 16 mm format with a 60° included angle and a 0.8 mm corner radius provides an effective balance between edge strength and detail in the turned profile. The insert thickness and the cylindrical centre hole allow secure clamping in compatible holders, ensuring accurate seat repeatability in the AddMultiTurn system. Manufactured from cemented carbide, the insert is designed to deliver steady performance under typical turning feeds and speeds for its intended applications, supporting reliable process outcomes and predictable tool life.

FAQ

What applications suit this triangular insert best?
The TNGG 160408 TH10 insert is intended for multidirectional turning including longitudinal, facing and profiling within the AddMultiTurn system.

Is the cutting grade suitable for aluminium and other non-ferrous materials?
Yes, the TH10 uncoated carbide is a sharp universal grade optimised for non-ferrous materials and applications that benefit from lower cutting forces and cleaner surfaces.

How does the double-sided chipbreaker affect performance?
The double-sided chipbreaker on this triangular insert promotes consistent chip formation and evacuation, reducing the risk of snarled swarf and supporting improved surface finish on turned parts.

What guarantees secure clamping and repeatability?
The combination of a cylindrical centre hole, defined insert thickness and the triangular geometry ensures secure clamping and repeatable seating in compatible holders within the AddMultiTurn system.
