TNMG 160404 GH330 Turning insert by Tungaloy – carbide grade GH330, 60° triangle

The TNMG 160404 GH330 is an ISO‑standard triangular turning insert designed for general external and internal turning where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required.

• TNMG triangular ISO insert 60° chip geometry
• GH330 grade for wear resistance and edge life
• Double-sided with cylindrical hole for secure fixing
• 0.4 mm corner radius for consistent dimensional control

Reliable performance through a wear‑resistant grade

The use of the GH330 Tungaloy carbide grade delivers a controlled combination of hardness and toughness, which translates into longer cutting life under mixed cutting conditions. For production environments where consistent component quality and reduced downtime are priorities, the insert’s composition reduces the frequency of index changes and tool interventions. In addition to durability, this grade supports steady results when machining a broad range of steels and common ferrous materials, making it a cost‑effective choice for series turning and frequent tool exchanges.

Geometry and design that support accuracy and clamping security

The triangular 60° insert form, with its 0.4 mm corner radius and 4.76 mm thickness, offers a stable cutting edge and predictable contact geometry at the tool tip. The double‑sided design effectively doubles the usable edge life per insert, while the cylindrical hole and standard fixing format provide a secure seat in compatible holders. These geometric details ensure repeatable component tolerances and straightforward index changes, which are particularly beneficial in batch production and setups that demand fast insert rotation without compromising accuracy.

ISO compatibility and versatile machining scope

Being part of an ISO turning insert series ensures compatibility with a wide range of external holders and boring bars, subject to matching form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and size. The insert is intended for general external and internal turning; the double‑sided chipbreaker and the choice of grade permit adaptation to different workpiece materials and cutting modes. Select a chipbreaker and insert grade according to material, operation and machine stability to achieve optimised chip control and surface finish without over‑complicating tool inventories.

Practical selection and maintenance for a productive workflow

Incorporating these inserts into a coherent system—insert, matching holder, support/clamp set and replacement screws—reduces setup time and simplifies stock management. The ISO designation (TNMG160404) makes it easy to match spare inserts and replacement parts, while the robust grade supports longer intervals between changes. For application advice, selection of the correct chipbreaker or to confirm holder compatibility, Metav Werkzeuge provides technical guidance and practical support to assist with implementation and to help maintain consistent cycle times.
