DCGT 11T308 KS05F indexable turning insert by Tungaloy — 55° geometry for general turning

DCGT11T308 KS05F Tungaloy-Wendeplatte is an ISO-form indexable insert designed for external and internal turning in a wide range of machining set-ups.

• ISO rhombic insert for turning
• KS05F grade for wear resistance
• 55° included angle, 0.8 mm radius
• Central hole with countersink

Precise cutting performance from a robust carbide grade

The insert is manufactured from carbide, selected to balance hardness and toughness for turning tasks. The KS05F grade provides enhanced wear resistance together with sufficient edge stability, which reduces flank wear and extends insert life under typical cutting conditions. In practical terms, that means fewer indexings and more uninterrupted production time; the material choice is geared towards stable chip formation and repeatable component quality. The specification as an ISO indexable insert simplifies tool selection and inventory management across machining cells.

Geometry that supports accuracy and versatility

A rhombic insert form with a 55° included angle delivers flexibility for both external and internal turning operations, while the corner radius 0.8 mm helps achieve a controlled cutting edge for better surface finish and dimensional stability. The listed 7° relief ensures correct clearance at the cutting zone, reducing rubbing and heat generation. The plate thickness 3.97 mm contributes to rigidity in the cutting position; together these geometric parameters enable predictable tool behaviour and easier process planning for programme engineers and machine operators.

System compatibility and practical mounting details

Compatibility with holders depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening and plate dimensions — all of which have been standardised for the ISO series. The insert features a central hole with a cylindrical hole plus single-sided countersink (40°–60°) for secure clamp mounting, and a one-sided chipbreaker suited to continuous swarf control in many turning tasks. Use with a matching external holder or boring bar, plus the correct clamping kit and replacement screws, to ensure safe seating and repeatable results. The indexable design also supports economical re-indexing rather than full-tool replacement, helping to reduce tooling cost per part over time.

FAQ

What is this insert intended for?
The DCGT11T308 KS05F indexable turning insert by Tungaloy is intended for external and internal turning operations where an ISO rhombic insert form and the KS05F grade are suitable.

Which specifications determine holder compatibility?
Holder compatibility depends on the insert form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; the DCGT11T308 designation and the provided geometric data should be matched with the holder and clamping kit.

What are the key geometric values to consider?
Key values are the 55° included angle, corner radius 0.8 mm, relief angle 7° and a plate thickness of 3.97 mm; the insert also includes a central hole with a cylindrical bore plus a 40°–60° countersink.

How does the KS05F grade affect machining?
The KS05F grade combines wear resistance and edge stability, supporting longer tool life and predictable performance in turning, while maintaining good chip formation characteristics.

Is this an indexable insert and what are the benefits?
Yes — it is an indexable insert designed for ISO-compatible holders; benefits include economical re-indexing, simplified inventory management and consistent cutting-edge geometry for repeatable results.
