TPGT 080204 TH10 indexable turning insert — ISO triangular insert for turning (Tungaloy)

The TPGT080204L-W08 TH10 is an ISO‑standard indexable turning insert designed for external and internal turning, combining an uncoated carbide grade with a dedicated chipbreaker for machining non‑ferrous materials.

• ISO triangular insert for turning
• Uncoated carbide TH10 grade
• Chipbreaker W08 for stable chips
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Precision where low cutting forces and surface quality matter

The insert is made from uncoated carbide, a choice that reduces friction and helps maintain a sharp cutting edge when machining non‑ferrous materials. The TH10 grade is developed as a sharp universal grade, which supports lower cutting forces and contributes to a clean surface finish. For shops seeking reliable dimensional results with less burr formation, the combination of a sharp grade and controlled geometry reduces rework and improves downstream processes.

Controlled chip formation for consistent productivity

Equipped with the W08 chipbreaker, the geometry channels material flow to create short, controllable chips during turning. That design reduces the risk of long, entangling chips and assists coolant access at the cutting zone. The result is a safer machining environment and more consistent cycle times; the insert’s chip control is particularly advantageous in automated or high‑volume turning where chip evacuation is essential for uninterrupted production.

Secure fit and defined clamping parameters

Compatibility with toolholders is determined by form, 11° clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening type, size and 2.38 mm thickness. The triangular 60° form and the central cylindrical hole with one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) ensure repeatable seating and secure clamping when used with the correct holder and clamping kit. Specifying holders that match these parameters guarantees stable cutting conditions and predictable tool life.

Application guidance and selection advice

Best suited for machining non‑ferrous materials, the insert performs well in both external and internal turning where a sharp, uncoated edge is beneficial. The 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength and detail in profile work; smaller radii improve corner definition while larger radii extend edge life in heavy cuts. For questions on matching the insert to a particular holder style or material, Metav Werkzeuge can supply compatibility charts and practical recommendations to ensure optimal process results.

FAQ

What materials is this insert best suited for?
The TPGT080204L‑W08 TH10 insert is optimised for non‑ferrous materials; the uncoated carbide grade supports low cutting forces and cleaner surface finishes when machining brass, aluminium and similar alloys.

How does the W08 chipbreaker affect machining?
The W08 chipbreaker on this triangular indexable insert promotes short, controllable chips, improving evacuation and reducing interruptions—particularly useful in automated turning centres.

Which holder features must match the insert?
Holder compatibility depends on form, 11° clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and 2.38 mm thickness; matching these parameters ensures correct seating and reliable clamping.

What does the ISO code 080204 indicate?
The ISO code 080204 describes the insert geometry and size class used for standardisation; it helps to select matching holders and to ensure interchangeability across ISO‑compliant systems.

Can this insert be used for finishing and roughing?
The sharp TH10 grade excels in finishing and less aggressive turning of non‑ferrous parts; for heavy roughing, consider grades and geometries specifically designed for higher wear resistance.
