TPGA110304 DX140 Tungaloy indexable turning insert — PCD grade, triangular insert, 11° clearance

TPGA110304 DX140 Tungaloy is an ISO-standard indexable turning insert engineered for high-speed turning of aluminium, non-ferrous and abrasive non-metal materials.

• PCD cutting material DX140 for aluminium
• ISO-standard triangular insert, 60° angle
• 11° clearance, 3.18 mm plate thickness
• Cylindrical hole for secure clamping

Faster machining and markedly longer tool life for aluminium work

The DX140 polycrystalline diamond (PCD) grade provides exceptionally high wear resistance when machining aluminium and other non-ferrous materials. Because PCD has a diamond cutting layer, it supports significantly higher cutting speeds compared with conventional carbide grades while maintaining a fine surface finish. The result is a measurable increase in throughput and a reduction in downtime for insert changes, translating into lower operating costs per component. This combination of PCD and the triangular geometry delivers a dependable balance between performance and predictable lifetime.

Stable clamping and repeatable geometry for consistent parts

Designed to the ISO indexable insert form, the triangular shape with a nominal 60° included angle and a cylindrical hole offers secure and repeatable clamping in compatible holders. The 11° clearance minimises rubbing on the flank while keeping the cutting edge engaged optimally, which reduces vibration and improves dimensional consistency. Compatibility is determined by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, attachment method, size and thickness, so the insert integrates smoothly into standard turning tool systems for reliable results.

Carbide substrate with PCD cutting layer for process security

The insert combines a diamond cutting layer with a robust carbide substrate to ensure mechanical support and resistance to edge chipping. The 3.18 mm plate thickness and corner radius of 0.4 mm provide a stable cutting edge suited to a range of feed and depth settings, while the PCD layer resists abrasive wear. For machining tasks where abrasive non-metals or high-speed aluminium operations are common, this construction offers a predictable and secure machining window, reducing scrap rates and rework.

Application-focused design for production environments

This indexable insert is intended primarily for turning operations and is supplied without an integrated chipbreaker (no chipbreaker), allowing selection of cutting geometry and feed strategy to match the component and stability conditions. The TPGA110304 designation indicates the ISO geometry and size; the DX140 grade is optimised for non-ferrous alloys and abrasive materials, enabling very long tool life under appropriate cutting parameters. Choosing the correct holder, clamping torque and cutting data will unlock the full productivity benefits of the grade.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TPGA110304 DX140 insert is designed for aluminium, non-ferrous metals and abrasive non-metal materials; the PCD cutting layer ensures long life under high cutting speeds.

Can this insert be used in standard ISO holders?
Yes — the insert follows ISO geometry standards; compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, size, thickness and fixing method, so matching to an ISO-compatible turning holder is recommended.

Does the insert include a chipbreaker?
No — this TPGA indexable insert is supplied without a chipbreaker, allowing process-specific chip control via cutting parameters and toolholder selection.

What is the corner radius and how does it affect performance?
The corner radius is 0.4 mm, offering a compromise between edge strength and surface finish; a larger radius increases edge robustness, while a smaller radius favours finer finishes.

Is the cutting layer a bonded diamond or solid carbide?
The cutting material is polycrystalline diamond (PCD) bonded to a carbide substrate, combining wear resistance with mechanical support.
