CNGX 120716 FX105 indexable turning insert — Tungaloy

CNGX 120716 FX105 is an ISO‑compliant indexable insert designed for external and internal turning, combining a robust Tungaloy grade with a rhombic form for stable cutting performance

• ISO‑compliant rhombic geometry, 80° cutting angle
• FX105 Tungaloy grade with wear resistance
• Corner radius 1.6 mm for consistent finishes
• Plate thickness 7.94 mm for stable cutting

Longer running life with predictable tool performance

The FX105 cemented‑carbide grade delivers a balanced combination of wear resistance and edge toughness, which reduces insert change frequency and supports steady production rates. As an ISO‑standard insert, the component is optimised for repeatable seating and stable chip formation, helping to lower cycle variability in series turning. Clear technical choice of grade and chipbreaker reduces unscheduled downtime and contributes to a measurable improvement in throughput.

Secure seating and dimensional accuracy for repeatable results

ISO standardisation means compatibility depends on insert form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening, size and thickness; the rhombic shape with an 80° principal cutting angle and a 0° clearance angle ensures predictable engagement with external holders and boring bars. The 7.94 mm plate thickness and defined tolerance class improve clamping stability and reduce micro‑vibration, which benefits dimensional repeatability and surface quality on both external and internal operations.

Improved surface quality and efficient chip control

A corner radius of 1.6 mm provides a balance between edge strength and surface finish, while the special chipbreaker configuration supports controlled chip flow in a variety of turning conditions. Choosing the correct chipbreaker and the FX105 grade according to workpiece material and operation reduces burr formation and rework. The combined effect is fewer secondary operations and more consistent part finishing, particularly where repeatable surface requirements are critical.

System integration and practical application notes

The insert functions as part of a system that includes the ISO indexable plate, a matching external holder or boring bar, suitable backing/ clamp sets and replacement screws. Compatibility with a chosen holder must be checked against form, free angle, attachment method, size and thickness to ensure proper clamping. For applications where material, cut depth or stability varies, matching chipbreaker and grade to the operation optimises tool life and process security; expert advice is available for setup and selection.

FAQ

What materials is this insert intended for?
The FX105 grade in the CNGX 120716 insert is engineered for general turning tasks; selection of the chipbreaker and cutter grade should be matched to the specific workpiece material and machining parameters to achieve optimal results.

How does the 1.6 mm corner radius affect cutting?
A 1.6 mm corner radius increases edge strength and contributes to a consistent surface finish; it is particularly suitable where a balance of finish and edge durability is required.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
Compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the CNGX 120716 is ISO‑specified, so matching a holder with the corresponding seat and clamp arrangement ensures correct fit and performance.

What are the main benefits of the FX105 grade?
The FX105 cemented‑carbide grade provides increased wear resistance and good edge stability, supporting longer tool life and predictable performance in turning operations.
