TPGN 110308 LX11 — Tungaloy turning insert (triangular, 11 mm, 60°)

TPGN 110308 LX11 is an ISO‑compliant indexable insert intended for turning applications, engineered for a balance of wear resistance, toughness and cutting‑edge stability by Tungaloy.

• ISO‑compliant triangular insert TPGN
• LX11 grade for wear resistance and toughness
• 60° cutting angle for versatile turning
• Compatible with ISO holders and clamping systems

Maximum productivity through material‑matched performance

The LX11 grade from Tungaloy combines a modern carbide composition with a geometry chosen for turning, delivering a reliable balance between wear resistance and toughness. This results in extended tool life under typical external and internal turning conditions and helps reduce unplanned tool changeover. The 0.8 mm corner radius smooths engagement forces, improving surface quality on interrupted cuts, while the 60° insert angle supports a broad range of cutting depths without sacrificing stability. These measurable properties translate directly into fewer tool stops and a steadier production flow.

Fast integration with existing holder systems

Compatibility is determined by insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and thickness; the triangular TPGN geometry and 3.18 mm thickness are standardised for ISO clamping systems, simplifying replacement in established toolbanks. The insert is supplied without a central hole and without a chipbreaker, so holders and clamping kits designed for TPGN110308 seats are required for correct fixation and repeatable positioning. Clear specification of these parameters reduces setup time and ensures repeatable clamping accuracy across batches.

Broad application range and material adaptability

This turning grade is suited to a wide spectrum of steels and alloyed materials when combined with an appropriate coolant and cutting data. Selection of a matching chipbreaker and cutting parameters should be based on the workpiece material, machining strategy and machine‑tool rigidity. The carbide substrate and the LX11 grade support operations from general finishing to more demanding semi‑roughing steps, offering a pragmatic compromise between productivity and surface integrity.

Reliable, production‑focused design for workshops

Designed for everyday industrial machining, the insert’s ISO standardisation and Tungaloy’s grade technology provide predictable tool life and consistent surface results. For shops seeking to streamline inventory, the TPGN110308 geometry allows interchangeability across common external and internal turning holders, while the LX11 formulation contributes to stable chip formation and reduced flank wear. The result is fewer unscheduled interventions and improved process control over serial production.

FAQ

What materials are suitable for machining with this insert?
The TPGN110308 LX11 insert is designed for general turning and performs well on a wide range of steels and alloyed materials when matched with suitable cutting data and a correct chipbreaker selection.

Is a specific holder required for correct clamping?
Compatibility depends on the ISO seat geometry; the triangular form, thickness and size require a matching ISO turning holder and clamping kit for secure and repeatable fixation of the insert.

How does the 0.8 mm radius affect surface finish?
A 0.8 mm corner radius smooths engagement and reduces cutting forces, which generally improves surface finish and provides better performance on interrupted cuts compared with very small radii.

Does this insert include a chipbreaker or a central hole?
The insert is supplied without a chipbreaker and without a central hole; chip control and fixation must therefore be arranged via the selected holder and cutting geometry.

Which benefits does the LX11 grade provide compared with standard carbide grades?
The LX11 grade offers an engineered balance of wear resistance and toughness, delivering stable cutting‑edge behaviour and predictable tool life in turning operations.
