TPGW16T308 TH10 Tungaloy turning insert — triangular 60° geometry, 0.8 mm corner radius

A TPGW16T308 TH10 indexable insert engineered for ISO-compliant external and internal turning, suited to non-ferrous applications and machining tasks that demand low cutting forces and a clean surface finish

• Triangular ISO insert, 60° cutting geometry
• Uncoated carbide grade TH10 for low cutting forces
• 0.8 mm corner radius for accurate profiles
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink for clamping

Fast integration with ISO tool systems for reliable production

The indexable insert follows the ISO-compliant model series for turning inserts, which simplifies holder selection and reduces setup time. Compatibility is determined by the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, so matching these parameters to a suitable external holder or boring bar ensures reproducible positioning and minimal runout. For production environments this results in fewer changeovers, predictable cycle times and more consistent part quality.

Low cutting forces and improved surface finish with TH10 uncoated carbide

The TH10 grade is an uncoated carbide developed as a sharp universal grade for non-ferrous materials and similar applications where a keen cutting edge reduces mechanical loading. This characteristic supports low cutting forces and promotes a cleaner machined surface, particularly in materials that benefit from minimal built-up edge. In practice, the combination of a sharp grade and a moderate 0.8 mm corner radius helps to maintain profile accuracy while limiting burr formation during both external and internal turning.

Secure clamping and dimensional stability for repeatable results

Designed as a triangular 60° geometry insert with a cylindrical hole and a single-sided countersink (40°–60°), this insert affords stable clamping and repeatable seat location in compatible toolholders. The 3.97 mm thickness provides sufficient support for a range of cutting conditions, while the absence of a chipbreaker indicates suitability for continuous chip flows typical of non-ferrous turning. Together, these design attributes contribute to process reliability and reduced risk of insert displacement during interrupted cuts or marginal toolholder stiffness.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for? The TH10 uncoated carbide grade of the TPGW16T308 insert is intended primarily for non‑ferrous materials and applications where a sharp, uncoated cutting edge supports low cutting forces and a clean finish.

How is holder compatibility ensured for the insert? Compatibility is determined by the insert’s form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening arrangement, size and thickness; matching these parameters to an ISO‑compatible holder provides secure seating and repeatable geometry for the Tungaloy turning insert.

Does the insert include a chipbreaker? This specific variant is supplied without a chipbreaker, making it well suited to continuous chip formation typical of non‑ferrous turning operations.

What clamping features support stability? The insert has a cylindrical hole with a single‑sided countersink (40°–60°) and a triangular shape, which together enable reliable clamping and accurate positioning in compatible toolholders.

Which dimensions are critical when ordering a replacement? Key dimensions are the insert size (16 mm), thickness (3.97 mm), corner radius (0.8 mm) and the ISO designation (16T308); these determine fitment in the corresponding holder system.
