DCGT 070201 SH725 turning insert by Tungaloy

The DCGT 070201 SH725 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for external and internal turning where stable cutting edges and predictable performance are required.

• Coated cemented carbide grade SH725
• ISO rhombic 07 geometry for versatile turning
• 0.1 mm corner radius for fine finishing
• 7° clearance angle supports stable cutting
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Engineered for dependable productivity and extended tool life

The insert uses a coated cemented carbide substrate in the SH725 grade, specifically developed for high edge stability and predictable wear behaviour. This composition reduces unexpected edge chipping and extends tool life, particularly useful when smaller tools or variable engagement conditions are present. The robust coating improves resistance to abrasive wear while maintaining cutting performance, which translates into fewer indexings, reduced production interruptions and a lower total cost per component. Where repeatability and cycle‑time consistency matter, the combination of material and grade delivers measurable gains in productivity.

Seamless system compatibility to reduce setup time

Designed to the ISO standard, the rhombic 07 format and defined mounting features ensure compatibility with a wide range of holders and boring bars. The insert’s cylindrical hole with one‑sided countersink (40°–60°) and defined 7° clearance simplify secure clamping and positional repeatability, so setup times and fixture adjustments are reduced. Because compatibility is determined by shape, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness, choosing an ISO indexable insert like this one helps maintain interchangeability across tool inventories and supports efficient tool management in batch and job‑shop environments.

Optimised edge geometry for finishing accuracy and reliable chip control

A 0.1 mm corner radius offers a fine edge for superior surface finish in finishing passes and for light to medium roughing where component tolerance is tight. The single‑sided chipbreaker geometry assists in breaking and evacuating chips reliably, reducing the risk of re-cutting and improving surface quality. For applications that demand precision—such as turned parts with close tolerances or fine bore finishes—this configuration provides a balance of precision and strength. When combined with the SH725 grade, it is particularly suitable where cutting conditions vary and a stable edge is essential.

FAQ

What turning operations is this insert best suited for?
This insert is intended for external and internal turning; the rhombic geometry and SH725 grade make it suitable for finishing and light to medium roughing where edge stability is important.

How does the 0.1 mm corner radius affect surface finish?
A 0.1 mm corner radius provides a fine cutting edge that improves surface quality on finishing passes while still offering sufficient strength for controlled material removal.

Will this insert fit existing ISO holders and boring bars?
The insert is ISO‑compliant (DCGT070201) and its compatibility is based on form, clearance angle, tolerance, fastening and thickness, so it is compatible with holders designed for rhombic 07 ISO inserts.

What advantages does the SH725 grade offer?
The SH725 grade delivers enhanced edge stability and consistent wear behaviour, especially beneficial when cutting conditions vary or when smaller tool geometries are used.
