TPGT 080202 UX30 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular ISO turning insert, 60°

The TPGT080202L-W08 UX30 is an ISO‑standard triangular indexable turning insert designed for external and internal turning where low cutting forces and controlled chip formation are required.

• ISO-standard triangular insert size 08
• Sharp-edge UX30 carbide for low cutting forces
• W08 chipbreaker for controlled chip formation
• Cylindrical hole with single-side countersink

Precision and productivity for machining operations

The ISO‑standard geometry ensures predictable seating and repeatable results when mounted in compatible holders. Made from uncoated cemented carbide in the UX30 grade, the insert provides a sharp cutting edge that reduces cutting forces, which helps to lower machine load and extend stable cycle times. The moderate included angle of 60° and the 11° clearance angle give a balance between strength and accessibility, resulting in reliable performance on a range of shaft and bore turning tasks. In practice, this means fewer tool changes and a more continuous production flow for turning operations.

Controlled chip formation and edge security

Featuring the W08 chipbreaker, this insert promotes manageable chips and consistent evacuation during turning; the chipformer is optimised for common turning feeds and depths. The 0.2 mm corner radius supports accurate dimensional results while reducing cutting shock on the insert nose. For applications that prioritise surface finish and short‑chip behaviour, the combination of the chipbreaker design and the sharp UX30 grade delivers improved chip control and fewer interruptions, which contributes to higher first‑pass yields in batch and single‑piece production.

Compatibility, clamping and assembly benefits

The ISO designation and standardised dimensions simplify selection of holders and adaptors: compatibility is determined by insert shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink (40°–60°) to match common clamping systems and ensure secure locating and clamping torque transfer. The 2.38 mm thickness provides adequate mechanical support for cutting forces typical of finishing and light roughing operations, while the standard triangular form allows three indexed cutting edges to be used in sequence for cost‑effective tool life.

Practical guidance for material and application selection

The uncoated UX30 carbide grade is particularly suitable where low cutting forces and good chip formation are the priority; it performs well across a broad range of steels and common alloy types in turning tasks. For heavier interrupted cuts or highly abrasive materials, selecting a different grade or a coated variant may be advisable, whereas for tight tolerances and fine surface quality the current configuration delivers consistent results. When pairing with holders, ensure the seating face and screw torque match the insert’s geometry to maintain repeatability and minimise runout.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The TPGT080202L-W08 UX30 Tungaloy insert, made from uncoated cemented carbide in UX30 grade, is designed for a broad range of steel turning tasks where low cutting forces and controlled chip formation are desired.

How does the W08 chipbreaker affect machining? The W08 chipbreaker on this Tungaloy turning insert promotes stable chip formation and easier evacuation, which reduces interruptions and supports consistent surface quality in typical turning feeds.

Can the insert be used in standard ISO holders? Yes; the insert follows ISO geometry and the ISO‑standard dimensions allow it to be mounted in compatible holders that accept triangular size 08 inserts, provided form, clearance angle and clamping method match.

What does the 0.2 mm radius mean for finish and strength? A 0.2 mm corner radius offers a compromise between improved surface finish and edge strength; it reduces cutting shock compared with a sharp point while maintaining good dimensional control on turned features.

Is the insert coated, and when is a coated grade preferable? This insert is supplied as uncoated cemented carbide (UX30). For increased wear resistance or higher cutting speeds on abrasive alloys, a coated grade would be preferable.
