TNMA160408 FX105 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning

TNMA160408 FX105 Tungaloy indexable insert designed for ISO‑standard turning applications, offering a triangular 60° geometry and a cylindrical mounting hole for secure clamping

• ISO‑standard triangular insert, 60° geometry
• Tungaloy FX105 cutting grade for robust wear
• Carbide composition for consistent edge life
• Cylindrical hole for stable clamping

Stable cutting edge for reliable production

The TNMA160408 insert combines a carbide substrate with the FX105 grade to produce a balance of wear resistance and toughness that supports continuous machining. The 0.8 mm corner radius reinforces the cutting edge against overloads and micro‑chipping, which reduces unplanned tool changes and improves component repeatability. In practice, this means fewer interruptions and more stable cycle times when performing external or internal turning tasks.

Designed for precise clamping and ISO compatibility

The triangular shape with a 60° included angle and a cylindrical hole provides predictable seating in ISO turning holders, while the 4.76 mm plate thickness and size 16 classification are consistent with common tool systems. Check holder form, clearance angle (0°), tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness for compatibility; correct matching minimises vibration and secures repeatable positioning. This mechanical stability translates directly into improved surface finish and extended insert life.

Optimised for productive turning without a chipbreaker

This insert is supplied without chipbreaker, allowing selection of the most suitable chip control strategy for the workpiece and machining conditions. The FX105 grade complements insert geometry to manage chip formation and edge stability across diverse turning operations. For materials or processes that demand aggressive chip control, pair the insert with an appropriate holder, coolant strategy or tailored feed rate to maintain consistent chip flow and protect the cutting edge.

Practical selection and handling advice for workshop use

Select the insert grade and geometry according to material, rigidity and desired surface quality rather than relying solely on feed or speed increases. Store inserts in original packaging to protect edges, inspect index positions before installation and ensure clamping screws and seats are clean. For complex parts or unfamiliar materials, request cutting parameter recommendations and toolholder checks to prevent early wear and to achieve optimal component tolerances.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for both external and internal turning?
Yes. The TNMA160408 FX105 Tungaloy indexable insert is designed for external and internal turning; compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, fastening and size.

Which materials can be machined with this grade?
The FX105 grade provides a balance of wear resistance and toughness suitable for a broad range of turning applications; match grade and geometry to the specific workpiece material for optimal results.

How does the cylindrical hole affect clamping?
The cylindrical hole ensures secure seating and consistent clamping repeatability when used with the correct ISO‑compliant holder, improving process stability and surface finish.

Is a chipbreaker included with this insert?
No, this insert is supplied without a chipbreaker; chip control must be achieved via holder geometry, cutting parameters or coolant selection.

How can genuine Tungaloy inserts be identified?
Genuine items carry the manufacturer article number 6808267 and SKU TUN6808267 and are supplied in original Tungaloy packaging; verify these identifiers when ordering.
