DCGT 11T302 KS05F Tungaloy turning insert — ISO rhombic insert with 55° cutting angle

The DCGT11T302 KS05F Tungaloy turning insert is an ISO‑standard rhombic insert intended for general turning applications, designed to deliver stable chip formation and reliable cutting‑edge performance in a variety of machining setups.

• ISO‑standard rhombic insert, 55° cutting angle
• KS05F Tungaloy grade for wear and edge stability
• Cylindrical hole with single‑side countersink
• 0.2 mm corner radius, 3.97 mm plate thickness

Consistent geometry for repeatable turning performance

The rhombic 55° geometry provides a balanced approach between strength and accessibility, making the insert suitable for both external and internal turning tasks. The combination of the 0.2 mm corner radius and the defined 7° relief angle reduces cutting forces while maintaining edge robustness, which leads to measurable consistency in dimensional results. This geometry supports predictable tool life and helps to reduce downtime by simplifying tool selection and replacement in ISO‑compatible holders.

Material grade and chip control that improve productivity

The insert is made from carbide and specified with the KS05F Tungaloy grade, which is formulated to balance wear resistance and toughness for prolonged service life. The single‑sided chipbreaker is matched to the grade to optimise chip formation for common turning conditions; this results in smoother surface finishes and fewer interruptions due to poor chip evacuation. Where higher stability is required, the grade supports heavier cuts while retaining cutting‑edge integrity, contributing to a favourable cost‑per‑part ratio in production runs.

Fast integration and mounting guidance for workshop use

Compatibility with the toolholder depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixings, size and thickness; the insert features a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamping and quick seating. The plate thickness of 3.97 mm and the ISO designation ensure interchangeability with matched holders and clamping sets. For reliable assembly, verify holder geometry and tightening torque to maintain repeatable seating and minimise vibration, thereby extending both insert and toolholder life.

Application considerations and selection tips

Designed primarily for turning, the insert is part of an ISO series where the operator selects the appropriate chipbreaker and grade according to workpiece material and process stability. The KS05F grade complements tool geometry by offering stable performance across a broad range of operations, but matching the chipbreaker style to feed and depth of cut remains essential. For unusual materials or specialised finishes, consult the technical documentation or application specialists to determine the optimal cutting data and strategy.

FAQ

What machining tasks is this insert intended for? This indexable insert is intended for general turning operations; the DCGT11T302 KS05F is designed for both external and internal turning with a focus on stable chip control.

Which holder features are required for correct mounting? Correct mounting requires a holder that matches the ISO geometry, relief angle, tolerance class and fastening arrangement; the insert uses a cylindrical hole with a single‑side countersink for secure clamping.

What are the key dimensions to check when replacing an insert? Check the corner radius (0.2 mm), plate thickness (3.97 mm), cutting angle (55°) and relief angle (7°) to ensure compatibility with the toolholder and desired machining outcome.

How does the KS05F grade affect cutting performance? The KS05F grade from Tungaloy combines wear resistance and edge stability to provide longer tool life under varied turning conditions, supporting better surface finish and consistent productivity.

Is there advice available for optimising cutting data? Application guidance and recommended cutting parameters are available from Metav Werkzeuge; consult the technical team to match feed, speed and depth of cut to the KS05F grade and chosen chipbreaker.
