TPGM 110204 UX30 Tungaloy indexable insert — triangular 60°, uncoated carbide for turning

TPGM 110204 UX30 is an ISO triangular indexable insert designed for general turning operations, providing a sharp cutting edge for low cutting forces and reliable chip control.

• Sharp UX30 cutting edge for low cutting forces
• ISO triangular 60° form for versatile turning
• Cylindrical-hole mount for secure positioning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine profile control

Consistent chip control that improves process stability

The insert delivers predictable chip formation thanks to the UX30 grade and its uncoated carbide substrate, which together reduce cutting resistance and heat generation during continuous turning. The single-sided chipbreaker geometry promotes short, controllable chips when machining a wide range of materials, helping to maintain cycle times and reduce machine downtime. This performance is particularly beneficial where stable tool life and repeatable surface finish are required, translating directly into improved throughput for production turning tasks.

Secure clamping and ISO compatibility for rapid tool changes

An ISO-compliant triangular form with a cylindrical hole and standard tolerances ensures compatibility with a broad range of clamping systems and external holders. The 60° included angle and 11° clearance simplify seat geometry checks and reduce setup time when replacing inserts across different toolholders. Because the insert follows ISO norms for dimensions and hole style, changeover is straightforward and repeatable, supporting efficient tool management in batch production and mixed-series workshops.

Grade selection and application guidance for optimal results

The uncoated UX30 grade is formulated for operations where a sharp cutting edge and good chip control are priorities rather than extreme wear resistance. The small 0.4 mm corner radius is suited to finishing and light-medium turning, producing accurate profiles and fine surface finishes with reduced cutting forces. For heavier roughing cuts or harder materials, a different grade or a larger corner radius would be recommended; this insert excels where low cutting resistance and consistent chip breaking are decisive selection criteria.

Operational benefits for everyday turning operations

Using this triangular indexable insert in a correctly matched holder and clamping set delivers reliable part geometry and surface quality across external and internal turning tasks. The modest plate thickness and precise ISO geometry mean predictable strength and clearance characteristics under typical cutting parameters. Combined with an organised insert inventory and consistent grade selection, workshops achieve cost-efficient production with reduced scrap rates and easier process control, improving overall manufacturing reliability.

FAQ

What applications are best suited for this triangular insert?
This triangular indexable insert is intended for external and internal turning where a sharp cutting edge and controlled chip formation are required; the UX30 grade and the 0.4 mm corner radius make it suitable for finishing and light to medium turning operations.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the ISO designation TPGM110204 and the cylindrical-hole mounting ensure compatibility with holders designed for ISO triangular turning inserts; proper matching of form, clearance and tolerance class remains essential.

Which materials can be machined reliably with this grade?
The uncoated UX30 carbide insert performs well on a broad range of common engineering materials where low cutting forces and good chip control are priorities; for highly abrasive or very hard materials, a different grade may be preferred.

How does the 0.4 mm corner radius affect surface finish?
A 0.4 mm corner radius provides fine profile control and contributes to a smooth surface finish in finishing and light cutting operations, while maintaining low cutting forces.
