CCMT060208 GH730 indexable insert for turning — Tungaloy

CCMT060208 GH730 Tungaloy indexable insert designed for ISO-conform turning operations, suitable for external and internal machining with standard CCMT-compatible holders

• ISO 060208 rhombic insert
• GH730 Tungaloy carbide grade
• Single-sided chipbreaker design
• Cylindrical hole with countersink

Stable edge life for consistent production results

The GH730 grade provides a balanced combination of wear resistance and toughness, delivering a reliable cutting edge under typical turning loads. This balance helps to extend tool life and reduce the frequency of insert changes, which directly contributes to higher machine uptime. The insert’s carbide substrate and optimised grade are intended to resist abrasive wear while maintaining edge stability during interrupted cuts, yielding consistent component quality and fewer rejects.

Geometry tuned for secure chip control and surface finish

With a rhomboid geometry and an included angle of 80°, the insert offers good support for general turning tasks while the single-sided chipbreaker steers chips away from the cutting zone. The 0.8 mm nose radius improves surface finish and part concentricity where small radii are required, while the 7° relief angle helps to reduce flank contact and heat build-up. Together these features translate into predictable chip formation and improved surface quality for many production scenarios.

Compatible system integration for quick tool changes

The insert follows ISO plate conventions (ISO 060208) and is compatible with CCMT-style external holders and boring bars when matched by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The cylindrical hole with a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures positive clamping and repeatable seating in the pocket; the 2.38 mm plate thickness provides stiffness for stable cutting. Choosing the correct holder and tightening sequence ensures the insert performs to its technical potential and helps maintain process stability.

Practical advantages for shop-floor handling and selection

As an indexable solution, the plate simplifies tool management: multiple cutting edges per insert reduce inventory turnover and lower per-part tooling cost. The ISO 060208 format and the clearly defined features make selection straightforward when matching grade and chipbreaker to workpiece material and machining strategy. For operators less familiar with insert geometry, focusing on two parameters—nose radius for surface finish and chipbreaker style for chip behaviour—provides an effective starting point for productive setup.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert suitable for?
The CCMT060208 GH730 Tungaloy insert is intended for general turning operations, including external and internal turning, where a balance of wear resistance and toughness is required.

How does the GH730 grade influence performance?
The GH730 grade offers a compromise between hardness and toughness, enabling stable cutting-edge behaviour and longer service life for carbide inserts in varied turning conditions.

Which holder types are compatible with this insert?
CCMT060208-form inserts fit CCMT-compatible external holders and boring bars when form, relief angle, tolerance and fastening match; the cylindrical hole with countersink ensures secure clamping.

What effect does the 0.8 mm nose radius have on the part finish?
A 0.8 mm nose radius smooths the machined surface and reduces scallop height, improving surface finish compared with smaller radii while still allowing for good dimensional control.

Is this an original Tungaloy product and how is it identified?
Yes — the insert is supplied as CCMT060208 GH730 from Tungaloy and is listed under article number 6820964 and manufacturer SKU TUN6820964.
