TNGG 160408 TH10 indexable turning insert for turning — Tungaloy

TNGG160408 TH10 is a triangular, double-sided indexable insert designed for multidirectional turning in longitudinal, facing and profiling operations.

• Multidirectional turning system
• Uncoated carbide TH10 grade
• Triangular insert, 60° cutting angle
• Double-sided chipbreaker, low cutting forces

Reduce tool changes with a multidirectional system

The AddMultiTurn concept enables a single tool to cover several cutting directions, which reduces the number of tool assemblies required on the turret and shortens idle time between operations. The insert’s triangular geometry and 60° included angle are integrated to support longitudinal, facing and profiling tasks, while the system structure—comprising holder, indexable inserts and a clamping system—is designed to provide stable support during direction changes. This arrangement helps to improve throughput without sacrificing process reliability.

Cleaner surfaces and lower cutting forces for non‑ferrous components

The TH10 grade is an uncoated carbide formulated as a sharp, universal grade for non‑ferrous materials, where a finely honed cutting edge reduces built‑up edge and cutting resistance. The combination of a sharp edge and the double‑sided chipbreaker leads to low cutting forces and a clean surface finish, making the insert well suited for applications that require tight surface quality and minimal secondary finishing. Cutting behaviour is predictable thanks to the grade’s focus on stable chip formation.

Precise geometry and secure clamping for repeatable results

Key geometry features such as the 0.8 mm corner radius and a 4.76 mm plate thickness contribute to predictable tool life and dimensional consistency. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole for positive location and robust clamping; this design supports repeatable positioning in the toolholder and reduces the risk of micro‑movement under load. A 0° relief angle is matched to the insert form to provide the desired cutting engagement for the intended turning tasks.

Cost‑effective performance and straightforward integration

The double‑sided design and triangular shape translate into multiple usable cutting edges per insert, improving cost efficiency per edge compared with single‑edged options. The AddMultiTurn series is configured to integrate easily into existing turning programmes, and the combination of TH10 carbide and the double‑sided chipbreaker reduces the need for extensive process tuning. For workshops seeking a balance of productivity and surface quality in non‑ferrous turning, this insert delivers a practical compromise between sharpness and mechanical robustness.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The insert is designed for non‑ferrous materials; the TH10 uncoated carbide grade supports low cutting forces and reliable chip formation in such applications.

How does the AddMultiTurn system reduce setup time?
The AddMultiTurn concept allows one tooling assembly to perform multiple cutting directions, so fewer holders are required and changeovers are reduced.

How is the insert clamped and located?
The TNGG160408 TH10 insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole for positive location and secure clamping in compatible toolholders.

What advantages does the triangular, double‑sided design offer?
A triangular, double‑sided insert provides multiple usable cutting edges, improving cost per edge and enabling economical index changes without full insert replacement.
