DCGT11T304 KS05F Tungaloy indexable insert for turning, rhombic 55° geometry

A DCGT11T304 KS05F indexable turning insert designed for ISO-compliant external and internal turning, combining a balanced carbide grade with a single-sided chipbreaker for controlled swarf behaviour

• Tungaloy KS05F grade for high wear resistance
• 55° rhombic geometry for versatile turning
• 0.4 mm corner radius for accurate finishes
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Proven wear resistance for uninterrupted production

The KS05F designation marks a Tungaloy carbide grade engineered to provide a balance of wear resistance and edge stability, making it suitable for demanding turning tasks where tool life and repeatable results are priorities. The composition of the grade delivers controlled abrasion resistance without sacrificing toughness, so gradual wear is predictable and process stability is improved. This results in fewer tool changes, lower setup overheads and a more reliable cycle time for batch production.

Geometry that delivers consistent surface quality

The rhombic 55° geometry with a 0.4 mm corner radius and 7° relief angle yields a predictable cutting engagement and consistent surface finish on external and internal contours. The acute angle supports versatile approach vectors on turning centres and boring bars, while the small radius helps achieve fine profile definition. Where a precise dimension and a good optical finish are required, this geometry reduces the need for secondary operations and helps maintain tolerance control.

Practical mounting and secure clamping for repeatable results

Compatibility with toolholders is defined by form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the ISO designation ensures the insert fits standard holders designed for the DCGT form. The insert is supplied with a cylindrical hole plus a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) for reliable clamping. Combined with the specified plate thickness of 3.97 mm and ISO-compliant dimensions, the insert provides a secure seat that minimises vibration and improves the life of both insert and holder.

Productivity benefits and application guidance

The single-sided chipbreaker is optimised for turning operations where chip control and stable cutting forces are essential. Selecting the correct chipbreaker and grade for the workpiece material and machining conditions will maximise productivity — the KS05F grade complements the geometry to give a useful compromise between wear resistance and toughness. For systematic integration into a production line, plan holder selection, clamp components and spare screws as part of the tooling system to reduce downtime and ensure immediate replacement when needed.

FAQ

What is the primary application for this insert?
The DCGT11T304 KS05F Tungaloy indexable insert is intended for ISO‑standard external and internal turning operations and is presented as a reliable choice for general turning tasks.

How does the KS05F grade affect tool life?
The KS05F grade used by Tungaloy combines wear resistance and toughness, which promotes a stable cutting edge and extends usable life under appropriate cutting conditions.

Which holders are compatible with this insert?
Compatibility depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fixing method, size and thickness; the ISO designation DCGT11T304 ensures fitment with standard holders designed for rhombic 55° inserts.

What does the hole and countersink specification mean for clamping?
The cylindrical hole plus a one-sided countersink (40°–60°) provides a secure seating and consistent clamping force, helping to reduce micro‑movement during turning cycles.

Can this insert achieve fine surface finishes?
Yes, the 0.4 mm corner radius and the rhombic 55° geometry support precise profile definition and improved surface quality, reducing the need for additional finishing passes.
