TPGT 130308 TH10 Tungaloy indexable insert for turning

A TPGT130308 TH10 insert designed for ISO-standard external and internal turning, offering a compact triangular form with a 0.8 mm corner radius and a single-sided chipbreaker for controlled chip formation

• ISO-standard triangular insert
• Uncoated carbide TH10 grade
• 0.8 mm corner radius for fine finishes
• Cylindrical hole with one-sided countersink

High-performance material and cutting-edge grade for efficient turning

The combination of an uncoated carbide substrate and the TH10 sharp universal grade is optimised for non-ferrous materials and applications where low cutting forces and clean surfaces are priorities. An uncoated cutting edge reduces friction at the contact zone, which in turn lowers cutting temperatures and supports longer tool life under appropriate conditions. The result is consistent surface quality and reduced tendency for built-up edge when machining softer alloys, making this insert a practical choice for demanding finishing and light to medium turning operations.

Secure seating and ISO compatibility for predictable setups

Being an ISO-standard insert, the geometry, tolerance class and fastening interface are intentionally aligned with a wide range of external holders and boring bars. The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures reliable clamping and repeatable seating, so component tolerances remain stable across insert changes. Compatibility is governed by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance and thickness; this predictability minimises setup time and supports efficient tool-change routines in production environments.

Geometry tuned for surface quality and stable cutting

The triangular form with a 0.8 mm corner radius and single-sided chipbreaker balances edge strength with the ability to produce fine surface finishes. A 11° relief angle reduces rubbing on the flank while the 60° included angle of the triangular platform promotes rigidity in the cutting zone. Together, these geometric choices reduce vibration and improve surface integrity on workpieces, particularly during finishing passes or when working with slender components where chatter suppression is essential.

Operational benefits and workshop integration

With a 3.18 mm plate thickness and a compact 13 mm inscribed circle, this insert integrates into small and mid-size toolholders without compromising stiffness. Stocking an ISO-conforming insert like this simplifies inventory management and enables rapid replacement during production interruptions. For applications requiring a different chip control or when switching between materials, the insert’s defined chipbreaker and the TH10 grade give clear guidance on suitability, supporting predictable process outcomes and helping to reduce scrap rates.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The TPGT130308 TH10 insert is designed primarily for non-ferrous materials and applications that benefit from a sharp, uncoated edge; the TH10 grade supports low cutting forces and improved surface quality.

How does the chipbreaker affect performance?
The single-sided chipbreaker on the TPGT130308 controls chip formation for reliable evacuation and consistent finishes, particularly helpful during finishing cuts and interrupted cuts.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Yes, the insert conforms to ISO dimensions and secures with a cylindrical hole and countersink; compatibility depends on holder form, clearance angle, tolerance and thickness but ISO conformity makes matching straightforward.

Which geometric features improve surface finish?
The 0.8 mm corner radius combined with the 11° relief angle and stable triangular platform reduce vibration and rubbing, contributing to improved surface integrity during turning operations.

What is the manufacturer article number and SKU for ordering?
The manufacturer article number is 6808958 and the supplier SKU is 6808958-Tungaloy for the TPGT130308 TH10 indexable insert.
