TNGG 160408 GH330 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning
TNGG160408 GH330 is a triangular indexable insert designed for multidirectional turning in the AddMultiTurn system, suitable for longitudinal, facing and profile turning operations.
- Triangular 16 mm insert format
- GH330 cutting grade for balanced wear resistance
- Double-sided chipbreaker for stable chip control
- Cylindrical hole for secure clamping
High-performance cutting for consistent productivity
The triangular indexable insert is engineered to provide a reliable combination of wear resistance and edge stability thanks to the GH330 cutting grade from Tungaloy. The triangular form with a 16 mm inscribed circle and a 0.8 mm corner radius offers robust cutting edges for longitudinal and profiling tasks, while the double-sided chipbreaker helps maintain stable chip formation under varying feed conditions. These measurable attributes reduce tool-change frequency and support uninterrupted production runs, helping to increase overall throughput.
One insert for multiple directions — fewer tool changes
Integrated within the AddMultiTurn multidirectional turning system, this insert supports several machining directions with a single tool family. The combination of a cylindrical hole and the specified 60° geometry ensures secure clamping and repeatable positioning, which simplifies changeovers and shortens setup time. For shops seeking to streamline tooling inventories, the capability to perform facing, longitudinal and profile turning with the same insert geometry translates into lower tool-stock complexity and faster job sequencing.
Durable grade and manageable maintenance
The Tungaloy GH330 grade balances toughness and hardness to cope with mixed cutting conditions common in workshop practice. As a carbide insert with a thickness of 4.76 mm, it affords mechanical stability during interrupted cuts; being double-sided effectively doubles the available cutting edges per insert, improving cost-efficiency. The 0° relief angle and triangular geometry deliver predictable wear patterns, which simplifies regrinding decisions and disposal planning. Clear, consistent chip control also contributes to safer, cleaner machining and reduced downtime for chip-related issues.

FAQ
What cutting operations is this insert suited for?
The TNGG160408 GH330 insert is intended for turning operations including longitudinal turning, facing and profile turning within multidirectional setups.
Which material is the GH330 grade optimised for?
The GH330 grade from Tungaloy provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness, making the insert suitable for a broad range of turning tasks where consistent edge performance is required.
How does the double-sided chipbreaker benefit shop productivity?
A double-sided chipbreaker allows the insert to be indexed to a fresh cutting edge and then reused on its reverse side, effectively increasing the number of available edges and improving cost-efficiency for repetitive production.
Can this insert be used in standard toolholders?
The TNGG160408 insert uses a cylindrical hole and standard triangular geometry, offering compatibility with holders designed for triangular indexable inserts and the AddMultiTurn multidirectional system.
What identifying codes should be referenced when ordering?
Use the article number 6808222 or the manufacturer SKU TUN6808222 to ensure the correct Tungaloy TNGG160408 GH330 insert is supplied.
