TPMN110308 UX30 — Tungaloy turning insert, ISO triangular, 0.8 mm corner radius

The TPMN110308 UX30 is an ISO-standard triangular turning insert intended for external and internal turning operations, offering a sharp cutting edge and low cutting-force cutting behaviour for stable chip formation.

• ISO-standard triangular insert for turning
• UX30 uncoated carbide for sharp cutting edge
• 0.8 mm corner radius for fine profile work
• Compatible with standard 11 mm holders

Reliable performance for demanding turning tasks

The UX30 grade is an uncoated carbide designed for applications where low cutting forces and controlled chip formation are required. In practice, this means the insert supports stable machining on a range of steels and common engineering materials, reducing vibration and improving surface finish compared with less rigid tooling. The sharp edge geometry results in reduced power draw at the spindle, which benefits cycle times and tool life in many production environments.

Clear design and holder compatibility explained

The triangular form with an 11 mm size and a 60° included angle provides three usable corners, making the geometry economical for batch work. The 0.8 mm corner radius offers a compromise between edge strength and profile fidelity, suitable for finishing passes and light to medium roughing where a finer radiused edge improves part geometry. Compatibility with holders is governed by insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; selecting a matching ISO holder ensures repeatable clamping and positional accuracy.

Selecting the grade and optimising machining parameters

Choosing UX30 targets operators seeking a sharp, predictable cutting action rather than heavy-duty interrupted cutting. For best results, pair the insert with appropriate feeds and speeds for the workpiece material and ensure coolant or cutting fluid is applied as required by the workpiece and process. The rake geometry of 11° reduces cutting forces and supports chip flow, while the uncoated substrate simplifies post-process inspection and solder-bonding compatibility where coatings might interfere.

Practical handling and application guidance

The insert is supplied in the ISO TPMN geometry and is intended to be mounted in standard triangular holders or boring bars designed for 11 mm size inserts and a 3.18 mm plate thickness. The absence of an integral chipbreaker in this design prioritises control through process parameters and holder rigidity rather than relying on a formed chipbed, making it especially suitable for well-fixtured turning operations and precision finishing. Replacement is straightforward: index the next corner to restore cutting quality and maintain productivity.
