TPGN 160302 TH10 turning insert – Tungaloy, triangle ISO indexable insert, 60° included angle

TPGN160302-DIA TH10 Tungaloy turning insert is an ISO-standard indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, providing a sharp, uncoated cutting edge suited to non-ferrous materials and applications where low cutting forces and excellent surface quality are priorities

• ISO-standard turning insert, triangle shape
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for non-ferrous
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precise finishes
• 3.18 mm thickness for stable clamping

Precision cutting for non-ferrous turning applications

The triangular, ISO-standard indexable insert is engineered for reliable performance in turning operations. With the TH10 uncoated carbide grade and a DIA chipbreaker, the insert delivers a sharp cutting edge that reduces cutting resistance. This combination is particularly effective when machining aluminium alloys and other non-ferrous materials where low cutting forces translate into higher spindle speeds, reduced power draw and improved tool life. The result is a more productive turning cycle and a clean surface finish that reduces downstream polishing or rework.

Sharp edge geometry to reduce built-up edge and improve finishes

An uncoated carbide grade like TH10 offers a naturally sharp edge geometry that helps prevent built-up edge on sticky materials. The DIA chipbreaker controls chip formation to avoid tangling and ensures predictable evacuations, while the fine 0.2 mm corner radius supports fine surface quality without sacrificing edge stability. For shops prioritising surface integrity and reduced burr formation, this grade-and-chipbreaker pairing supports shorter cycle times and fewer rejects.

Designed for straightforward interchangeability and secure clamping

The insert follows ISO dimensions and fits compatible triangular holders or boring bars; compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening and thickness. Key geometric values such as the 16 mm size, 3.18 mm thickness and 60° included angle enable reliable locating in standard toolholders and allow repeatable positioning when indexing. The insert is supplied without a hole and is secured using the appropriate clamping kit and screw, forming a system with the holder and backing plate for stable machining.

###Consistent production through a proven grade and manufacturer support Tungaloy’s established production quality and the TH10 grade provide a balance of sharpness and wear resistance for many everyday turning tasks on non-ferrous workpieces. The combination of ISO conformity, a defined chipbreaker and measured corner radius helps maintain consistent part quality across batches, reducing set-up iterations. For technical matching—selecting the right holder, clamping kit or screw—consultation ensures the insert integrates smoothly into existing tool systems while optimising process stability.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TH10 uncoated turning insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials; its sharp carbide edge and DIA chipbreaker promote low cutting forces and clean finishes when machining aluminium and similar alloys.

How does the DIA chipbreaker affect machining?
The DIA chipbreaker controls chip shape and evacuation to prevent chip entanglement and to support consistent surface quality during turning operations with the TPGN160302-DIA insert.

Which toolholder is required for this insert?
This ISO‑standard triangular insert requires a compatible external holder or boring bar that matches the insert form, clearance angle and thickness; secure clamping with the correct backing plate and screw is essential for stable cutting.

What does the 0.2 mm corner radius mean for part quality?
A 0.2 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and fine finish, reducing vibration and helping to achieve improved surface integrity on turned components.

Is the insert coated or uncoated and what are the benefits?
The insert uses an uncoated carbide grade (TH10). Uncoated edges retain sharpness and lower cutting forces, which is advantageous for non‑ferrous materials and operations where minimal built‑up edge and excellent surface finish are required.
