TPGA 110302 BX360 Wendeplatten - Tungaloy

Take advantage of the combination of high wear resistance, ISO compatibility and precise finishing geometry for reliable, repeatable turning operations; the CBN grade ensures long tool life on hardened components while the triangular 60° form gives stable engagement and easy indexing. Order the insert directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the sales engineers for guidance on holder compatibility and optimal machining parameters.

TPGA 110302 BX360 — TPGA indexable insert for Turning by Tungaloy

TPGA 110302 BX360 TPGA indexable insert for precision turning and finishing of hardened components, designed for ISO-system holders and stable clamping.

• CBN grade BX360 for hardened steels
• Triangular ISO insert, 60° cutting angle
• Cylindrical hole, secure clamping
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishing

High-performance cutting for wear-intensive finishing

The TPGA110302 BX360 insert combines a cubic boron nitride (CBN) cutting material with an engineered grade for sustained performance on hardened steels. The CBN substrate provides superior abrasive wear resistance compared with conventional carbide, enabling consistent dimensional results during last-pass turning and plunge finishes. This translates into longer intervals between indexings, reduced tooling consumption and a measurable improvement in surface integrity when finishing high-hardness components.

ISO conformity and mechanical fit cut setup time

Built to ISO indexable insert standards, the triangular geometry and cylindrical hole guarantee secure fixation with compatible holders. The specified relief angle of 11° and 60° insert form ensure predictable engagement and force distribution, reducing vibration and runout. As a result, changeovers and re‑indexing are quicker and set-up reproducibility improves, supporting higher machine utilisation. If uncertain about holder compatibility or the best clamping arrangement, the technical team can provide clarification by email at info@metav-werkzeuge.com or by phone at +49 2822 7131930.

Application focus and economic advantages

Designed primarily for turning applications, the insert is optimised for finishing on high-hardness workpieces and, depending on component requirements, can also address certain cast iron operations. The fine 0.2 mm corner radius supports tight tolerances and reduces edge chipping during light cuts, while the absence of a dedicated chipbreaker simplifies edge preparation for consistent finishes. Overall, the material and geometry selection delivers a favourable balance between process stability and tool-life economy, particularly in small-batch and high-precision machining contexts.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TPGA 110302 BX360 insert (Tungaloy indexable insert, SKU 6808774-Tungaloy) is primarily intended for hardened steels and, in certain grades, can be used for cast iron finishing depending on component and process demands.

How does the BX360 grade differ from carbide inserts?
BX360 is a CBN-based grade; unlike carbide, the BX360 cutting material excels in abrasive wear resistance on hardened materials, giving longer tool life in finish turning applications.

Is a chipbreaker required for good surface finish?
This insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, relying on the CBN edge and fine 0.2 mm corner radius for controlled cutting and fine finishes; chip evacuation depends on holder geometry and cutting parameters.

Can this insert be used with standard ISO holders?
Yes — the insert conforms to ISO indexable insert dimensions and the triangular form with a cylindrical hole ensures compatibility with corresponding ISO-system holders when matched for form, thickness and tolerance class.

What cutting geometry helps to achieve consistent results?
The combination of the 60° insert form, 11° relief angle and 0.2 mm corner radius provides stable engagement, reduced vibration and repeatable dimensional control in finishing passes.
