TNMM 160402 DX120 — ISO indexable turning insert, PCD grade for high‑speed aluminium turning (Tungaloy)

A TNMM 160402 DX120 ISO indexable turning insert intended for high‑speed external and internal turning of aluminium and other non‑ferrous materials, featuring a triangular geometry and PCD cutting grade for extended tool life

• PCD grade DX120 for high cutting speeds
• Triangular ISO insert, 16 mm size
• Cylindrical‑hole clamping for secure fixing
• Very long tool life on aluminium alloys

Achieve faster, more productive turning with PCD DX120

The PCD cutting material DX120 combines extreme hardness with thermal stability to enable high cutting speeds and consistent results when machining aluminium and abrasive non‑ferrous materials. As an ISO indexable insert in the TNMM format, the design focuses on maintaining cutting edge integrity under continuous loads; this reduces tool change frequency and increases overall throughput. The result is measurable productivity gains where cycle time and surface quality matter most.

Reliable seating and repeatable set‑up reduce downtime

Compatibility within the ISO insert system is governed by form, clearance angle (0°), tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The triangular geometry with a 60° included angle and 16 mm inscribed circle offers a classic, stable fit for many external holders and boring bars. A cylindrical hole ensures reproducible clamping, while the standardised dimensions let spare parts and replacement inserts be stocked with confidence, shortening machine downtime and simplifying tool management.

Improved surface finish and edge strength through controlled geometry

A corner radius of 0.2 mm balances edge strength and achievable surface quality: the small radius supports fine finishing passes while still tolerating interrupted cuts typical in turning operations. The integrated DIA chipbreaker geometry works in concert with the PCD layer to control chip formation and evacuation, particularly on soft, gummy alloys and abrasive non‑metals. The outcome is a stable machining process with fewer edge‑related interruptions and a predictable component finish.

Simple integration into existing tool systems and clear application guidance

The insert is part of the ISO indexable turning system and is used together with a compatible external holder or boring bar, plus a shim/clamping set and replacement screws as required by the toolholder design. Material suitability is straightforward: designed primarily for aluminium, non‑ferrous metals and abrasive non‑metals, the grade offers very long tool life under appropriate cutting conditions.

FAQ

Which materials is the insert suitable for?
The TNMM 160402 DX120 insert is engineered for aluminium, non‑ferrous alloys and abrasive non‑metallic materials; the DX120 PCD grade provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for these applications.

How does one ensure holder compatibility?
Compatibility is determined by the insert form, clearance angle (0°), tolerance class, fastening type, size (16 mm) and thickness (4.76 mm); matching an ISO TNMM seat and a cylindrical‑hole clamping system guarantees proper fit for this Tungaloy insert.

What are the main benefits of the PCD grade DX120?
DX120 offers very long tool life and excellent performance at high cutting speeds, especially when machining abrasive or soft non‑ferrous materials where carbide tools wear rapidly.

Can this insert be used for internal as well as external turning?
Yes, the ISO TNMM format and the triangular geometry make the insert suitable for both external and internal turning operations when paired with the appropriate holder or boring bar.

What role does the corner radius play in finish and strength?
The 0.2 mm corner radius provides a compromise between edge robustness and achievable surface finish, helping to maintain edge life while enabling fine finishing passes.
