TPGT 080202 TH10 triangular turning insert (60°) by Tungaloy

The TPGT 080202 TH10 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert for external and internal turning, designed for low cutting forces and clean surface finishes on non-ferrous materials.

• ISO-standard triangular insert
• Uncoated carbide TH10 universal grade
• 60° nose with 0.2 mm radius
• For non-ferrous materials, low cutting forces

Consistent low cutting forces and improved surface quality

The insert is manufactured from carbide in the TH10 grade and is deliberately uncoated to preserve a sharp cutting edge; this results in low cutting forces and helps deliver a clean surface on non-ferrous workpieces. The combination of a fine 0.2 mm radius and the sharp universal grade reduces burr formation and minimises the need for secondary finishing, which improves throughput and lowers production cost per part. For operations where gentle cutting and precise surface quality matter, this cutting geometry offers a practical and verifiable advantage.

Fast integration into ISO tooling systems and clear compatibility criteria

Compatibility with toolholders is governed by the insert’s shape, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the ISO design makes selection straightforward. The insert is a 60° triangular form with 2.38 mm thickness and a cylindrical hole with a single-sided countersink (40°–60°), so it fits holders designed for ISO triangular inserts size 08. When replacing or specifying tooling, matching these parameters ensures correct clamping, consistent chip control and repeatable axial and radial positioning. The clear ISO references simplify procurement and reduce setup time on the shop floor.

Stable chip formation and shop-floor productivity

The integrated W08 chipbreaker is optimised for short, controllable chips in turning processes, supporting stable chip formation and reliable evacuation. That stability reduces interruptions from chip entanglement and contributes to longer uninterrupted cutting cycles. As an indexable insert for turning, it supports both external and internal turning tasks with predictable wear behaviour; the use of an uncoated TH10 grade is especially beneficial where low tangential cutting forces and clean contact surfaces are required. This combination promotes efficient production and helps maintain consistent part quality across batches.

FAQ

Is this insert suitable for non-ferrous materials? The TPGT 080202 TH10 insert is designed as a sharp, uncoated TH10 grade, making it well suited to non-ferrous materials where low cutting forces and clean surfaces are required.

How is the insert fixed in the holder? The insert uses a cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) for standard ISO clamping systems; compatibility depends on matching the insert form, relief angle, tolerance and thickness.

What does the W08 chipbreaker deliver in practice? The W08 chipbreaker promotes short, controllable chips and stable chip formation, which reduces machine stoppages and improves uninterrupted productivity during turning operations.

Can this insert be used for both external and internal turning? Yes, the triangular geometry and standard ISO dimensions make this insert suitable for both external and internal turning when paired with the correct holder.

What are the key dimensional values to check when specifying a holder? Key values are insert size 08, thickness 2.38 mm, relief angle 11°, 60° included angle and the 0.2 mm nose radius; these ensure correct seating and clamping.
